Acharya Shriram Sharma Quotes - Hindi and English !

Dear Readers,

We are often faced with circumstances where we think that success cannot be achieved either because of our limited resources, or because of  difficult circumstances. 

Here's a guiding paragraph by Pt. Shriram Sharma Acharya that points out that the  most successful men in  the world have been men of limited means, facing difficult circumstances . How then did they achieve their  success? Read the below mentioned excerpt to find out how.


परिस्थितियों का रोना रोयें

लंबी-चौड़ी योजनाएँ बनाने की अपेक्षा अपने पास मौजूद साधनों को लेकर ही छोटे-मोटे कार्यों में जुट जाया जाए तो भी प्रगति का सशक्त आधार बन सकता है ।
परिस्थितियाँ अनुकूल होंगी – साधनों का बाहुल्य होगा, तब व्यवसाय आरंभ करेंगे, यह सोचते रहने की तुलना में अपने अल्प साधनों को लेकर काम में जुट जाना कहीं अधिक श्रेयस्कर है ।
काम छोटा हो अथवा बड़ा उसमें सफलता के कारण, साधन नहीं, अथक पुरुषार्थ, लगन एवं प्रामाणिकता बनते हैं । देखा जाए तो विश्व के सभी मूर्धन्य संपन्न सामान्य स्थिति से उठकर असामान्य तक पहुँचे । साधन एवं परिस्थितियाँ तो प्रतिकूल ही थीं, पर अपनी श्रमनिष्ठा एवं मनोयोग के सहारे सफलता के शिखर पर जा चढ़े ।
वे यदि परिस्थितियों का रोना रोते रहते तो अन्य व्यक्तियों के समान ही हाथ पर हाथ धरे बैठे रहते और संपन्न बनने की कल्पना में मन बहलाते रहते ।"
                                  - पं. श्रीराम शर्मा आचार्य (Book: बड़े आदमी नहीं महामानव बनें, पृ. १३)


English Translation of the above Quote:
"Don't wait for perfect situations and circumstances to occur.
 Many a times we make large plans and wait for the perfect circumstances to come along to execute them. We await a perfect time and look for abundant resources to enable  our success.
Substantial progress and achievements in life can be made by executing on small plans that require limited resources. Success in big and small tasks is dependent not on the availability of resources but is achieved through untiring perseverance, hard work, and dedication towards the task.
If we look at examples of successful men , we will find that most of them had backgrounds where there was a resource crunch or they were men of  limited means .They all started as common men and  yet achieved extraordinary success, greatness and riches  in their lifetime. When resources and favorable circumstances were not available , success was achieved through mental strength,  focused effort , thinking  and dedication towards the work at hand.
If the successful men of the world had waited for the right circumstances or adequate resources to come along , then they would have perhaps wasted an entire lifetime just dreaming of success!"
                   -By Pt. Shriram Sharma Acharya , a Quote from the Book in Hindi titled- 'Badey Aadmi Nahin Mahamanav Baniye".
