  1. achieve

    A person may obtain a situation by the intercession of friends, he procures a dinner by paying for it. Attain is a lofty word, pointing to some high or desirable result; a man attains the mountain summit, he attains honor or learning as the result of strenuous and earnest labor. Even that usage of attain which has been thought to refer to mere progress of time carries the thought of a result desired; as, to attain to old age; the man desires to live to a good old age; we should not speak of his attaining his dotage. One may attain an object that will prove not worth his labor, but what he achieves is in itself great and splendid; as, the Greeks at Marathon achieved a glorious victory. Compare DO; GET; REACH.

  5. Prashant Agarwal:

    It's been said that we achieve only if we expect something and have desire to achieve it, but if we start over expecting and are not happy to what have been achieved, then instead of building a positive approach to our success we tend to fall back and instead of writing our success story, we write the story of our own catastrophe. Then finally we trap ourselves in circle of self pity.
