In life there is no shortcut to success or power. If you desire to be successful, you have to take the long walk to it. You will have to work hard, persist, fail and try again and again, look for intelligent solutions to problems and sleep less at night, with time you will gradually come closer to your goals.
Do not be swayed by people around you who have taken the shorter routes and it currently seems as though they are winning. In the long run, you will realise that taking the right way was all worth it because they will eventually fail with time and by then starting afresh may be difficult for them while you have gone far in the long road to success.
Take the long and right road to greatness, with time, it will all be worth the walk.
