Sudah Berusaha, Tetapi Masih Belum Berjaya

Sering kita mendengar keluhan ini :

"Saya sudah berusaha, tetapi masih belum berjaya ".

Untuk menjawab persoalan ini, bolehlah diibaratkan anda sebagai pekerja " pemecah batu ".

Pada zaman dahulu, kalau nak pecahkan batu, perlu dilakukan secara manual. Tetapi, ketika ini kita menggunakan mesin.

Jadi, pada zaman dahulu, untuk memecahkan batu, ia perlu dilakukan manual. Dengan menggunakan penukul besar. Para pekerja perlu bertalu - talu mengetuk batu tersebut. Ketuk 10 kali pun, bentuk batu masih seperti asalnya. Ketuk 50 kali, ketuk 100 kali pun, tak pecah - pecah juga.

Tetapi, ketuk kali yang entah keberapa, terus batu tersebut pecah berkecai!

Walaupun, kesemua ketukan tersebut adalah pada kekuatan yang sama, maksudnya bukan ketukan yang terakhir itu kuat daripada yang lain - lain. Semuanya sama sahaja kekuatannya. Lambat laun, batu tersebut akan pecah berkecai dengan satu ketukan sahaja> Entah kali yang keberapa.
Tetapi, ia tidak akan pecah tanpa pukulan - pukulan sebelumnya.

Kejayaan anda juga perlu diibaratkan sebegitu. Kesemua usaha anda akan diambil kira. Walaupun tak nampak dilihat kejayaannya pada zahirnya, ia perlu diteruskan secara konsisten sehingga anda jumpa " pukulan " terakhir tersebut. Pukulan terakhir tersebut akan menunjukkan hasil daripada kesemua usaha - usaha anda sebelum ini.
