"God doesn't require us to succeed; he only requires that you try.
The following quote can be a way to live ones life. Basically it is saying that as long as you truly try your hardest at all tasks at which you are faced with, God will be pleased. Success isn't always visible by everyone; it comes in all different forms. Success may be a personal thing which only that individual understands. Because no one knows your limits as well as you do, your work effort and amount you try can only be determined by you. Therefore, since success is personal there are no specific guide lines to follow by which determine whether or not you tried hard enough. What everyone else sees as winning isn't always a sign of true achievement. True success doesn't need to be flaunted around because the self-satisfaction you get out of it is much greater then the recognition anyone can give you. When success is flaunted around it is usually not authentic and was achieved by cheating in one way or another. Unfortunately the work that is not authentic is sometimes praised, and the person that cheated their way through their task gets credit they don't deserve. However, the person that receives all this un-deserved credit has no sense of accomplishment and can take no real pride in the work since it is not really his. The person that this work was stolen from probably worked his hardest to get it done, although he received no credit for it and he was not publicly recognized, he has a huge sense of achievement and is able to take full credit for his work because he actually put time and effort in his work to get it done. Sometimes someone may happen to be good at a particular thing and don't have to try at it in order to succeed, this quote explains there is a problem with that. It is explained that the individual should take up a new task or profession that would require them to try, not just have everything breeze them by.
