To have a clear aim of where the action will lead is to be successful
in everything. Many a times it so happens that one acts immediately
seeing a situation. But the one who is successful analyses the
situation and predicts the outcome of the action that he performs and
then acts keeping the end result in mind. Because of knowing the
consequences of the actions before actually performing that action, he
is able to continue putting in effort in spite of the challenges and
difficulties. So he continues to give his best to the task. When he is
able to give time to himself to think before performing any action, he
is able to take the opportunity to be clear in his thinking. The
consequences of the action he wishes to take are clear in his mind and
so, the action taken to overcome the situation is right. Hence, he
recieves easy and sure success.
