Ways to attain success

This is with reference to the article “Ways to attain success” by (Bakhtawar Saleem Shahani, (YW, December 11). I liked the article very much. No doubt, with education we can reach our goals but reaching goals also requires hard work; therefore, it is necessary to perform any task with all our attention and hard work, as only then we will be able to live a successful life.

Respect the poor

This is regarding the story “Respect the poor” by Ayesha Ilyas (YW, November 27). The story gave us a great message to never underestimate the poor or those who are doing jobs like taking the trash and cleaning the sewers. They deserve respect and we should treat them with dignity. They are the ones who work harder than many other people. So, we must appreciate their hard work and always treat them with respect.

The story “Respect the poor” by Ayesha Ilyas described how we behave with poor people. It is true that some people dislike them and some feel ashamed to even talk to them. We should keep in mind that these poor people do the work that we do not like to do ourselves – like cleaning the streets and taking the garbage from our houses.

God has created all of us equal, but we do not consider others as our equals. So, remember that we are all God’s creations therefore, we should respect each other.

Motivation is the fuel for success

This is with reference to the cover article “Motivation is the fuel for success” by Gulrukh Tausif (YW, November 27).

The writer rightly narrated that motivation is the first step for doing something. It is important to have a clear vision of what you want to do. Once you have set your mind for something, then keep your spirits high and work in that direction. Don’t worry about failures, they are part of life.

Family soup night

This is regarding the story “Family soup night” by Ramsha Farooq Raja (YW, November 27). I really liked the story, as it highlighted the importance of relationships and keeping traditions alive.

Having meals together or a chat over a cup of tea makes life beautiful and fulfilling. These simple acts make our relationships stronger.

I appreciate the YW team for publishing stories with important messages in them.
