6) Success? Where are you heading?

‘Well. That’s strange… Anyway, it’s better for me to get hurry. I need to pass this forest soon. It’s getting dark now.’ said Stephen. As he walked, he found himself got lost in this place. Every trees and grasses around him were almost the same. He then took out his compass. ‘It's pointing to the north, where the old man told me. I must be on the right track.’ As he kept going and going, the sky started to get darker and darker and still no way out. Stephen started to get nervous and tired. He found a big, old tree, where he could sit down and take some rest. Suddenly, he heard someone talking to him. ‘Where are you going, young man?’ ‘Wonderland, ‘the place to success’ Stephen replied.

‘ O.o.o…. Everyone knows that Wonderland is at the north. You are on the right track physically. But, deep inside you, do you know WHAT DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DO in order to get there (Success)? Just like Wonderland, Success is always there for people to catch it, but you need to FIND YOUR OWN PATH to catch it. If you can’t create your path, you won’t reach Wonderland. That’s why you are lost here. This magical forest stops you from going to Wonderland, but it also helps you to be true to yourself and find your own way out! Once you know your path, this forest will show you the way. Everyone has different paths. No one can help you out here. I may provide you food and drink during the time. Don’t worry too much about it... I've got to go now. See you later!’ That sound came from the tree above. As Stephen looked up, he saw an owl. A talking owl just flew away…
