Of Being Successful

If success can make you wealthy 
Then it also makes you busy 
With the varieties of the meeting 
Relations go on multiplying 
One important aspect that keeps you content  
Your hard work being so efficient 

If success can make you famous 
Then it also makes you frivolous
When you seldom care about the feelings of others 
Needy asks for your help and you rarely bothers 
One important aspect that keeps you comfortable 
For everything is so readily available 

If success can make you proud 
Then it also makes you shroud 
When it will be hard to understand you 
Where there is no chance to command you 
One important aspect that keeps you flourish 
Where you will be trying to be selfish 

If success can make you wise 
Then it also makes you rise
When you will be keen to follow the principles  
 Where you might not be in hassles 
One important aspect that keeps you safe 
Where you will be prepared to be brave
