If some thought is given to these phenomena, one thing is definitely clear, there must be some seeds bulit in the success. Anyway success is subjective and goes on changing with the context, envornment,expectations . No wonder that success becomes a failure and failure becomes a success.

Compromising long terms gains for short term - a success with a failure seed in the long term.As the scuccess can not be spontaneous and so the failure. Failure can not be overnight. some thing associated with long term goals must have been compromised anyway with a short term success. Definitely acceptability of faliure is much less compared to success and so the public display of the same at any cost and some times at the cost of inherent loss the company and an individual. Glaring examples are duping to get success in sports at the cost health .

Here again the horizon of short term and long term becomes a subjective term. It is to be understood that energy and resources are limited. Use of one for an achievement of goal , carries with the seesds of failure of the goal whihc is not attended.
