"Complaining about not achieving success despite working hard is like - Complaining an ice cube for not melting when u heated from 25°C to 31°C"

Here's the main point i.e that the time consumed for noticing the difference is so longer and longer the duration ,longer is its longitivity ,I guess u got it .
