“Not be the second who, but be the first you” they say. Success, atopic started from human civilization arose, stirs up myriad of controversy,whether is regarding to the concept of define that or the method to achievethat. I prone to stand in the oppose side with the title statement that aperson in pursuit of success is supposed to do as others do rather than do as himself.
Undeniably, to the start with, being unique is an essential quality onthe way to success, after all, there is no the second Einstein in the world. Alwaysdoing behind others, a person will be accustomed to follow someone else, histhoughts, his behavior, or even his habits. No wonder that imitating asuccessful person, if ignoring the element of intelligence acquired from god, wecould achieve the same height through endeavor. However, is that allegedsuccess? I hold the different view. Granted that the person copying others maywell achieve goal to simulate, but do others admit this kind of “success”?There is an old Chinese saying going “If two men ride on a horse, one must ridebehind”. Taking a company as an example, a boss will not hire two identicalemployees who possess the same skills, ideas, and power in one certainposition. Hence, distinguishing from others is paramount for a person tosucceed.
Subsequently, it is of great significance that a personbehaves following his heart, which is also conductive to make a hit. When itcomes to interests and hobbies, particularly referring to success hinging onthat, nobody will deny that it will be a tremendous felicity. Needless to say,obviously, the easiness rises as interests conform to success, considering the boundlessenergy and motivation accompanied with fondness. To make it clear, forinstance, one of my friend, Brain, who is keen on basketball considerably. Inspite of his innate condition does not preponderate regardless of his height,his endurance and his strength, yet, holding on his zealotry to basketball,ultimately, he becomes one member of city team. By contrast, in order tosucceed, going behind of others without thinking about own dream and love, oneeither losses his way further in this tinsel world or becomes an unhappy winner,which I do not think it is the true success.
Someone would like to assert that only by following otherswill one have a helm in life navigation, for the sake of all-encompassedsociety and various temptations. Admittedly, being more like others will sound easierto succeed, however, how to imitate others and what is the extent to resemblethem should be taking into account. Plus, as we all know, opportunity andchance also exert a rival effect on success although we have already made thesame efforts as others do. In this sense, going behind others definitely is anunwise decision.
On account of the above-mentioned reasons, I still giveprior favor to point that a person, in terms of true success, should followhis/her heart instead of others’ traces.
