There are so many goals that we all have in our lives and so much that we want to achieve. But, how much are we able to achieve and how much are we able to strive for achieving goals. Let us today have a look at some of the questions related to the success people get in achieving their goals.

Who is successful in your family? Why?

In my family, I think it is my father who is the most successful person. He was thrown out of the company he worked hard for, had to work in a company that gave him very less income and yet has managed to build a house and children that are now independent to be able to live their dreams. I believe it is success, because when we compare the circumstances, the ones that my father has gone through, I don’t think any one else in my family might have survived them so well.

Tell me about a goal that you achieved for yourself.

I remember few years back I had decided for myself that I will never drink tea and since then I have never even tasted it. It was a big thing for me because I had been addicted to tea and needed it every hour. Leaving it completely was a big step that I took and I am glad that I have been able to fulfill it.

What success have you had in an English class? 

I remember when I was in class 6th, we had our half yearly exams and in the question paper of English there were questions only from between the chapter. During those days I was in love with English and would go on reading the chapter many a times. It was becaseu of this that I was almost thorough with the chapter. When everyone was worried about passing the exam, I had scored 94 in it. It was a great moment for me because it came as unexpected for so many.

Do you believe that people must work hard to become successful? Why or why not?

Definitely yes. Nothing worthwhile has ever been achieved without hard work. Although there are people who believe that successful people are the lucky ones, in my opinion luck is nothing but hard work. There are people who practice their moves several thousand times, print an article after writing 20 drafts. What one gets through luck might just be a chance.

Can you think of a successful person from your own county? What do they do? How do you think they did it?

Narendra Modi, the prime minister of our country is the most successful person I can think of. He started his career as a tea vendor, selling tea across, with minimal education he went on to become the most powerful person in our country. He spoke in an interview once, that he really works hard with waking up early to getting asleep at late night and he has done it several times in his life before achieving what he did.

What kind of success do you want in the future in your life?

I simply want to be able to open a company that gives equal and quality education to masses. I want that people are able to live their lives have dreams and succeed irrespective of the financial condition in which they are born.

What can you do now to be successful in the future?

The best thing anyone can do now, is to focus on now. There are people who wonder about future and make plans for the future but they forget that the most important thing is present. So, anyone who wants to be successful in the future must give high importance to the present, giving ones best to the present.

Do you think that money and fame means success?

It depends on the individual. If we look at our success from others point of view, it might mean but if we look at it from our own perspective, success is never about fame or money, it is about being able to do what you decided to do, to be able to fight the odds that one faced and to be able to win the toughest fight, the one within.

Secret, are the words or things that people keep to themselves. They tend to hide from everyone to ensure that it does not harm themselves or others. We all have so many secrets, the secrets that no one knows or may be only  the selective people of our lives are aware of. Let us today, have a look at some of the questions related to secrets.

Do you like knowing and finding out secrets? Why?

No, I am not so very interested in finding out the secrets of other people lives. I believe that if a person thinks they can share there secrets with me, it is great, but forcing someone to share their lives with me, is not something I look very much forward to.

Are you good at keeping secrets? Why or why not?

Yes, I think I pretty good at keeping secrets. Mostly, because once I have heard a secret I tend to forget it as soon as possible. Because, if the secret keeps bothering me it is more likely that I will spill the beans, either to someone or in my diary making it susceptible. So, I hear the secrets and tend to remember them  only when the person talks about them again.

Should governments keep secrets from their people? Why or why not?

In my opinion, if it is for the larger good, than there should not be any problem in keeping secrets. So, for example, if the government finds out that a country is trying to attack us or may be cause harm in other way, warning is good, but telling the citizens entirely of the situation, can cause trouble  because they may start fearing.

What kinds of secrets do you think your government has?

Governments, I think have more secrets related to the weapons that the other countries have, or the plans that they are working out for a solution or to fight or create relations with other countries. A government knows more about the world affairs, the insiders, the reasons for the things happening around the globe.

What is something that lots of people dislike but you secretly love?

Fighting is one thing most people don’t like, but I tend to love it. I love it when two people argue over things, because I believe that it is always good to argue and fight out the solution, rather than just adjusting and bottling things up.

Should husbands and wives keep secrets from each other?

I believe yes. No matter we decide to share our livelihoods with each other, at the end of the day, we all are individuals with so much that we owe to oneself. Surely there are things that we should share with our partners but then there are so many things that we should keep to ourselves. For example, the details of the previous relations might not go out well with our partners and effect the present relation.

Should parents keep secrets from their children? If yes, what kind of secrets?

There is no harm in keeping secrets from children. Most of the parents do keep secrets from their children related to the problems they are facing. Like, a parent might have to face difficulty in giving their child education, sharing these issues might bring out pressure in the lives of children. Or, the family troubles. We all have family troubles and bringing our children into it, can create rift among children, almost snatching their childhood.

 

Do you know any secrets about celebrities?

I have never met any celebrity, so I don’t have so much of knowledge on that. But, I do know the little here and there from the newspapers that I read. Like, Alia Bhatt once said she is scared of flights and darkness and then there is Anurag Basu and Kalki who told that they were abused as children.

What kinds of secrets are dangerous?

There are so many of secrets that could turn out to be really dangerous. Like the documents of a country. If an army official or other  government employee chooses to disclose them to some other country, there are more chances of economy going down or may be some sort of war. Also, secrets involving more than one person could be dangerous. Because, it not only affects one life but rather so many.
