Never give up attitude as told by Bhartruhari

 The great sanskrit poet Bhartruhari specifies about the 'Never Give Up' attitude in his text Nitishatakam. Some excerpts from the text are below

मनस्वी कार्यार्थी न गणयति दुःखं न च  सुखम्।।

An high-minded man who wants to accomplish the task does not count sorrow (adversity) and happiness.

Bhartruhari is a famous poet and has written the famous treatise named Nitishatakam, out of which the above line has been extracted. He was a poet, full of thoughtfulness and affluent language. 

This line states that firm-minded people always work from their heart, giving their best in all endeavors. They seem to maintain balance between दुःख(sorrow) and सुख(happiness).In all kinds of adversities, such virtuous people do not deviate from their work, inspite of sorrows or joys.

Determined people tend to face all kinds of challengss and hardships, but never seem to move back from the undertaken job. 

Situations do not matter, and virtuous people remain focused on their goal under all circumstances.

Bhartruhari spreads thoughts, but never blames or makes any objections on people directly. He is known for his discerning judgement. 

Destiny makes a poor man, rich and vice-versa. But such 'self-believers' never make fluctuations in their thoughts, leaving behind all future consequences.

Thus as per the teachings of Bhartruhari, we must try to focus upon our targets, forgetting the rewards, adversity or happiness, and work consistently to achieve success.
