It is an undoubted fact that hard work is the key to success. You cannot achieve anything without hard work. If you want to do well in your studies, you have to work hard; if you wish to be the best athlete of your school, you must run faster; if your wish to be remembered as the best student of your school, you must put in more effort.

Right through the ages we find that great men and women the world over, have worked hard to achieve success. Edison, who invented the electric bulb, worded 21 hours a day; Florence Nightingale, who revolutionized modern nursing, supervised her staff during the day and did extensive research on medicine during the night.

The word rest did not exist in Mahatma Gandhi ‘s dictionary. Indira Gandhi worked tirelessly for our nation. Even popular film stars, sportsmen model and pop singers of today have had to work their way up. Their success was not given to them on a silver platter.

So if you want to fulfill you ambitions work hard and do not be frightened of failure. Failure is nothing but an opportunity for you to try again-may be a bit harder this time. You must make full use of your talents and remember that success can be only be achieved by hard work. There is no short cut to Success.
