never say die



आरभेतैव कर्माणि श्रान्तः श्रान्तः पुनः पुनः।
कर्माण्यारभमाणं हि पुरुषं श्रीर्निषेवते॥
सुभाषितशतके ३-२९
ārabhetaiva karmāṇi śrāntaḥ śrāntaḥ punaḥ punaḥ|
karmāṇyārabhamāṇaṁ hi puruṣaṁ śrīrniṣevate||
subhāṣitaśatake 3-29
A worthy subhashitam
==========
Meaning
----------
Even if a person is dead tired after some activities, he should persist and embark on fresh missions, brushing aside such tiredness.
For the Goddess Lakshmi, who blesses us with wealth and success always loves to keep company only with a person who is enthusiastic in doing his work without interruption..
=========
Maybe a fellow would love some rest and recreation, and fun and frolic too.. But the really successful persons are those who toil, toil, toil and never give up..
For such persons rest is just death..
=========
analysis.
नरः a man
श्रान्तः श्रान्तः getting repeatedly tired
पुनः पुनः again and again
कर्माणि आरभेत् resume his work, start fresh work
कर्माणि work, projects
आरभमानं starting, embarking on
पुरुषं हि man alone
श्री निषेवते goddess of wealth keeps company.
