Never get tired, keep working : Modi tells students

Dantewada, Chhatisgarh, May 9 (IBNS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday advised students not to work untiringly without keeping track of hours.

 "One can never get tired while working. What tires a person is not being able to work. The more one works it is better," he said while interacting with students at Education City-a150-acre campus housing over a dozen schools and colleges in the Maoist hotbed of Dantewada.

This is Modi's maiden visit to Chhattisgarh's Naxal heartland after becoming Prime Minister.

During his half-hour discussion with the students, he answered questions on  how many hours he works and what was the secret of his success. 

"I keep coming across success and failure. I keep learning from my failures and never give up on my attempts to succeed," he told them.

"Life should not be judged on the basis of success or failure. When we do that, we get disappointed.  We need to learn from failures. Only then does success become possible," he said.

Education City accommodates about 5000 students from economically backward and tribal families.
