@Aleem, Thanks for pointing that out. I assumed retire meant not working in this context as well.

Also agree with Kevin, thoughts about failure shouldn’t even be in our minds when working towards something – only success and how we can succeed.

What is meant by retire in this context is “working for someone.” In most cases a student is taught to go to school, finish a degree and look for gainful employment. And retirement in this context includes both achieving great things at our space and time and having a balance between work and play.

Yes, there are lots of challenges, when we see people starving, in helm of poverty, people in distress, hopeless – it give us the inertia to strive for better opportunities. Challenges in empowering others making them realize of their potentials.

I agree with Kevin, we should empower ourselves and others to make sucess as our only option then and only then we are forced to succeed.

@Taylor, You’re welcome. Am glad you liked the post.

I wouldn’t want to retire at 25 either – even if I became a millionaire Working in some way is such an important part of life that teaches us knew skills, challenges us and overall makes us better persons.

I think what’s most important is to find a balance between work and play.
