From selling newspapers as a child to support his family, to becoming India’s leading space scientist to finally becoming the country’s 11th President and a world leader and then settling as a teacher for schools and universities, never before the country witnessed power, influence, exemplary modesty and kindness in the same friendly frame as was in the case of Dr. Kalam (after Gandhi probably).

At his 70s and 80s, he was a youth icon! He was adored by adults and children alike. He was revered by the scientific community and respected by all in a political system where people were usually at constant loggerheads with each other.

On his 5th death anniversary, I felt an urge to revisit this great man’s life and thought it would be apt to share some of the hidden treasures he tried to give us through his highly inspiring quotes.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam Quotes

Dr. Kalam was known to be one of the greatest visionaries and achievers of the world. He had a deep understanding of the dynamics of goals, dreams and ambitions which can be of somewhat complicated nature (look around - how many people say they want to achieve something but that desire is not matched by their actions).

First, if our dreams and goals in life do not wake us up from the bed, then they are probably not our real dreams and goals in the very first place.And if still they somehow are, then we have not put habits, processes and tools in place to ignite us all the time towards those dreams.

Second, no dreams can come true without actions. It’s as simple as that. If our thoughts, goals, and ambitions are not aligned with our actions with equal power, then there would not be the desired results.

It’s so very important to respect the process that goes behind success. The sweat and blood, the discipline, the perseverance against all the odds, the investment of one’s time in gathering knowledge on a subject and the sacrifice of one’s pleasurable activities in favour of one’s goals.

So many people get carried away by the glamour and the “look” of success. They want it. They want to live that life as would be defined by that particular success.

The process is mandatory, a must-have, the foundation before we can taste success. It must be enjoyed, worshipped and managed with tremendous care.

Abdul Kalam Quotes For Students & Success

If you want to lose weight, build muscles, become a successful writer or an entreprenuer, you have to break them down into daily tasks/rituals and vehemently stick to them till those rituals become a habit which will finally allow you to achieve your goals.

Now, this is interesting. It is not just forming a habit around one area of activity. It has to permeate in almost every area of our lives. Discipline is key.

For example, I want to write 100 words every day so that it becomes a habit towards my writing goals. But I can’t achieve that unless I wake up early because I have my day-job to do, in the evenings I have to do my exercise and then I have to spend time with my family etc. If I miss to get up early, I will miss on my writing ritual or I may have to sacrifice my exercising ritual to give way for writing.

Famous Quotes By Dr. A.p.j Abdul Kalam

Bottomline is that not building habits or messing up with them constantly will create bad habits which will viciously hamper our life goals.

4. The two most important life-goals I would like every youth to have: one - increase the amount of time that you have at your disposal and two - increase what you can achieve in the time available.

We can't form winning habits, we can’t stick to the process as explained before, and we can’t achieve our dreams unless we manage our time judiciously and efficiently.

Dr Apj Abdul Kalam Quotes, Motivational Quotes By Missile Man Of India

5. What is the secret of success? Right decisions. How do you make right decisions? Experience. How do you gain experience? Wrong decisions.

The more the experiments, the more the failures, the more are the learning. Progress in the scientific world happens through experimentation; which basically means taking actions. Doing.

Underneath the “wrong decisions” in the quote this is what the meaning is. Take small actions frequently, fail and learn from them. More you do that, the closer you get to the destination.

In many of his books and speeches, Dr. Kalam encouraged people to overcome the fear of failure. As he knew too well that the road to success was only through failures.

6. If you fail, never give up because F.A.I.L. means “First Attempt In Learning”. End is not the end, in fact E.N.D. means “Effort Never Dies.” If you get No as an answer, remember N.O. means “Next Opportunity”. So, let’s be positive.

World Students' Day 2020: Inspirational Quotes By Apj Abdul Kalam

No one is perfect. And no one can be perfect. One can only be an improved version of oneself to greater heights of wisdom, knowledge and skills.

I will tell you what can stop us from a path of continuous learning and development. It’s our ego and arrogance which actually translates into foolishness. So, control these demons all the time.

As much as Dr. Kalam was known for his concrete achievements, he was equally known for his exemplary modesty and humane nature.

10. I'm not a handsome guy, but I can give my Hand to Someone who needs help. Beauty is in the heart, not in the face.

People who selflessly help us in our greatest time of need, people who stand by us functionally and morally in our greatest time of need are the real knights in our lives. They are our gems and diamonds.

So, treat them, treasure them and care for them more than you would do for any precious stones. Think about them everyday in your prayers. Such hearts are a rarity in the world we live in.

The last-bencher, to me, is a metaphor for people who do not conform to conventions. They are the incurable dreamers. They are the ones who think differently. They are the ones who dare to imagine and are not bound by their textbooks. They are the silent rebels who go against the flow of the current. They are ones who may not have understood numbers but they understood people. They could be the kids with conditions like dyslexia or attention deficit disorder.

So, just because your grades are not good, just because you are not good in rote learning, just because you are not the one who raises your hand for textbook questions asked by your teacher and just because you are not a first-bencher DOES NOT MEAN you are not intelligent. It does not mean that your application of mind is inferior to anyone else. It does not mean you will be any less successful than anyone else.

Apj Abdul Kalam Quotes: Unlock Success Through Inspirational Thoughts And Positive Wisdom

A lot of the last benchers from my school time, who may or may not have been academically great, turned out to be one of the most creative, the most entrepreneurial, the most balanced and the street-smartest.

I have worked with last-benchers and school drop-outs and their intelligence has often put me to shame. And I have a double masters!

It should be absolutely motivating for parents, children and youths that this quote is coming from a man who was academically very bright and was a teacher, scientist and a statesman at the highest possible level.
