Success may mean different things to different people. Everyone wants to be successful in life, but not many are aware of what success is. In a true sense, a successful person is one who manages life’s challenges with a smile. Isn’t this exactly what the bygone year taught us? We see you nodding your head! Despite the lockdowns, social distancing, and uncertainties that 2020 brought, the whole year was all about smiling through the tough times, never giving up, staying hopeful, and continuing to move on (hopefully with joy).
Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar says: “Having a big bank balance and no sleep is not success. You may have lots of money but could have diabetes, high blood pressure, and many other health problems. That is not success. You may have lots of money but have a lot of fear and anxiety and do not have any friends, that is no success either.
To me, success is measured by your smile. How much of your life is filled with smiles and how much do you contribute to others? How much courage and confidence do you have in your own ability? You mustn’t be worried only about your own future. Money is needed in life, but life is not all about money.”
As we gear up for 2021, we bring nine success mantras from Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar to help you find true success.
1. Power of intention
** Image **
The success of any endeavor depends on the action and the strength of the action depends on the power of intention behind it. The intention gains strength when one drops the feverishness for the result of the action. Give your 100 percent and let go.
2. Spirituality for success

Spirituality helps you achieve goals in material life. If you find success, it keeps you centered. If not, it gives you the strength to move on.
3. Mindful action
** Image **
Usually, we hurry the mind but we’re slow in our action. The right formula for success is patience in the mind and dynamism in action.
4. Right attitude to work
** Image **
The best way of functioning is to work silently and achieve surely. Success is achieved not by making big noise but by the sincerity of purpose.
5. Taking the plunge

Your ability to take risks is directly proportional to your success. Staying in your comfort zone is a sign of aging.
6. Success matrix
** Image **
The sign of success is a smile that does not fade, confidence that does not wither, and a personality that does not get shaken. Measure your success by the number of hours you smile. Your smile, confidence & ability to share and care for people indicate success.
7. Recognising the greater power
** Image **
All those who take pride in their success don't know that there is an unseen force that bestows it and makes you feel you own it.
8. Accepting failures & moving forward
** Image **
A rigid attitude and a mismatch between thought and action are reasons for failure. Yet, know that every failure is a step towards success. Success is a measure of a part of your ability. You have expressed a little bit of your potential and that is a success.
9. Success means strength
** Image **
The true sign of success is when you lose everything, and you have the confidence that you can recreate it. Success means strength, an unshakeable smile that nobody can take away, and courage that does not diminish.
