A Kid came to Socrates and asked him the secret of his success. Socrates asked him to meet at the river bank the next day. The boy did as he said.
Socrates then took him into the river to a point where the water was neck deep...and suddenly ducked him into water. The boy was striving to breathe...and when the boy's face turned blue, he let off the force..and the boy started shouting at him " You old man, i came for an advice and u tried to kill me?"
Socrates then asked " Tell me, what did you really want in that situation?''
"air" replied the boy......
Then, Socrates said..." If u want success as badly as you wanted air... you will get it...and there is no other shortcut for it..
