Yearning for success is basic human nature, and almost everyone wants to be successful in their lives but success is achieved by only those people who know what they want from their lives and then stick to it, no matter what. Success is not accidental; you have to put in the time and effort to achieve it.

As life is not a smooth journey so is the path of success. Hurdles are bound to come up on the way to success and discourage you to stop following your goal, but if you are diligent, you will have the ability to handle the tough phases of life to your advantage for smooth and early completion of tasks. So to be successful in every sphere of life, you need to practice diligence.

Having a clear vision is essential to being diligent in life. It is the clarity of vision that gives not only the direction to life to follow the goal enthusiastically, but it also makes people passionate enough so that nothing or no one can discourage them. If you do not have a vision, you lose direction, motivation, passion, enthusiasm in life. On the other hand, if you have a clear vision of what you want to achieve in life, you will stay focused even if it appears tough and strive to be diligent so that you can transform your dream into reality. So if you want to gain diligence to be successful in life, you should make an effort to define your vision.

Diligence is needed in all spheres of life as it is one of the key ingredients for success. Those who use the sheer power of diligence, succeed in their goals surely. If you are a student, you can make yourself successful in your studies based on your diligence. If you are an employee, diligence causes you to be regarded as an asset to your organization and leads you toward excellence eventually, diligence does not only delight you but it also does to your owners keeping you in their good books always. Making a good career or career move or craving for career development requires one hundred percent commitment and to stay committed you must be diligent.

One must remind oneself of the drawbacks or downsides of sitting idle. An idle person is known as good-for-nothing. There is no real pleasure in sitting idle but it is idle pleasures. One, therefore, needs to be active to keep all his relating matters activated. Diligence refers to being persistent and making hard work effort in doing something. As it goes in this proverb that emphasizes the importance of diligence, “A wandering dog is better than a lion lying down”.
