You would have heard them say, the success of others is the burnout of our lives. But solely I say to you, the success of others is the 'telos' and the inspiration for us to do well and be the best that we can be. Getting inspired by other people's successes it's equivalent to the fresh air. It's like opening a window for the air to enter. And when we breathe that air we actually get ideas and ways to pull through our own struggles and downfalls. For an individual, I think, to learn and get inspired by other people's successes it's like the oxytocin is being secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland, which is actually a hug hormone.

Successes is our guide for our professional and personal growth. It attains the Growth Mind-set, unlike the Fixed Mind-set. But how can we grow if we still stick to our 'Fixed Min-set'? When are we going to compliment others for their achievements? And stop always expecting compliments from others, even if we did not do well.

Success is nothing without others, because "No man is an Island" a wisest man once said. We are successful because we have learnt something from others. And that's the beauty of life. It is noted that "The New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, based on the principle that little, everyday decisions will either take you to the life you desire or to disaster by default". By default imagine! Think of other people's success as a misery to you. The great physical or mental distress or discomfort. How would you be happy in that situation? You simply can't because you are not open to life, but to death. In fact not even just death, but suicide.

People who rejoice and get inspired by other people's successes, they are not just learning and striving towards their own success, but these are people who are not fake. They are real people. We can call this the roots of 'Personal Growth.' If one thing is not working for you, why don't you try something different? You might have tried several times, and you probably failed, not once, not twice, not even three times, but several times. And that's not bad, that's Okay! Because failure is the field to success. Don't be afraid of change, because changes reflect self-understanding.

Make it a point that you have a good inner circle, and protect it. Remember one thing, inner circles and friends are not chosen by us, but they choose us. Don't waste life by mocking around something that does not work, try and do something that would work, so that we can give you compliments and we'd rejoice with you. Smile and take it easy, be happy and remember to laugh, because you don't own all the problems in the world. And also your problems are not as big as you think, until you hear other people's problems.

We congratulate you ​Emmanuel Nathi Mabelane MR EDITOR​ on your greatest achievement, may God keep on blessing you with more wonderful things in this world. We pray.
