Paradox about analysing people!

Why do people analyse others from the achievements they had made in their life. Why everywhere this success is counted such as academic success, money related success... any kind of success...

Did the people who are unable to shine are useless? or of less importance? What qualities does matter? How is it decided what you feel about the person? Success is definately not a criteria to judge a person..

But the paradox in this is that there is no other criteria by which people can be analysed... When you get to know a new person what you primerily see is his success.. Even the success in impressing you!... When you make certain relationship wih the person what you rather everyone else sees is that "what do I get from this relationship?" This ultimately leads to the person's success , more successful the person is in anything.. more you get from the relationship...

This happen even while analysing yourself. You tend to compare yourself with other people... ultimately with the sccess of other people...

This is a paradox difficult to handle.. we can say 'How successful the other person is does not matter in my relationship with him" But ultimately that is the thing which matters! and when two persons are compared according to their success and when one is called inferior than other even that doesnt sound comfertable specially when one of the person being compared is "YOU" !
This is the paradox!

Hi Muukta...
..So the Paradox is the main thing ..the word ,around which your post is revolving...According to me u r talking from both sides of coins..in beginning about success of man and in very last para also ...
..........I think you have seen Taare Zameen Par...and its reflection can be clearly seen on this topic...that movie has made place somewhere in your mind definatly...he he..!!
.........And its our bad luck that nowadays definition of success is pretty different...society judges our success from very different parameters...and thats why that particular "Society Pressure" is there on every single guy or girl who is trying to establish himself or herself in the life...[as good as in society]..

hey,

nice blog..

it is very relative how one judges another person..

the 'success' which you are talking about is success from the perspective of the person who is analyzing.. It may not be an achievement for the person who is being analyzed.

so.. when a person says tht 'how successful the other person is does not matter in my relationship with him' the person talks about success as in academic / financial / etc, but not the kind of achievement you are talking about...

so the paradox arises because of different interpretations of success/achievement.

Success is a very relative concept, to mansaganik badalto.I f u ask me Success or failure dont really matter..the measure of a man or woman is in how many life's blows can they tk and still kp movin on..how many times dey r knockd out by circumstances and still hv da courage to stand up and fight..thats the measure of a man's worth.Success failure dont matter
