Some say that when a
person achieves success in their job, it means that he/she is selfish and
doesn’t care about others. Do you agree or disagree?
There is a common perception that
accomplishments make one self-centered and apathetic to others around.
Nevertheless, this notion is often challenged vehemently by a lobby that out rightly
rejects the former claim.
Ridiculing winners and calling them as self-centered is outrageous. Being triumphant in life needs one to go into self deprivation and focus all energies on attaining objectives. During this process, it becomes incumbent for individuals to make sacrifices of comforts and luxuries otherwise enjoyed by their kith and kin. However, once they reach the pinnacle, the exploits of their attainments are laid for everyone, around such individuals, to consume and derive pleasure. For instance, accomplished sport personnel usually toil it hard on the playground to sustain their performance, their nears and dears lead a life of luxury, an outcome of the struggle of the former.
Moreover, being resentful towards
triumphant individuals is quite inappropriate looking at the contributions
accomplishments of such people make to the society. These people devote their
life, face adversities, and pay high personal costs to innovate, which in turn
benefits the society. There have been several precedents where the hard earned
success of some people paved the way for betterment of human life.
Nevertheless, there are some,
although in negligible numbers, fit this statement perfectly. There have been
instances where those achieving professionally have become absorbed in self
glorification, and flaunting their trophies of extremely rare victories. Such
people generally range from poor to mediocre who use unfair means to become
successful, if such individuals left at their own devices, they would fail miserably.
To conclude, I thus fail to
concur with this statement and instead feel that those who conquer the peaks tend
to create benchmarks for others and let others use their attainments for their
own purpose.
