“Ideals are important and you should stick to them but to be in a position of choice sometimes ideals have to take a back seat. The world is a difficult place, make sure you get into the position of choice. Do not sell your soul but keep it locked for a while if need be. Once you are in a position of choice and you are successful, do not ever sell your soul or make the wrong choices. Then god, or your own conscience will never forgive you.” - SRK
Message from SRK to the youngsters of today! Integrity personified.
Well, straight from the horse’s mouth. How very true a counsel. God and your own conscience will forgive you if you do so on the path of success and climbing the ladder but once you are The Achiever and sitting atop, and you indulge yourselves in the same act of loosened disposition then God and your conscience will be belligerent. Words of immense wisdom that I will stick to my heart and soul till I die. In other words “honesty with a twist”! Right, and thou shall excuse.
I am sure this message will lead our youngsters to the path of integrity and credibility and a positive approach towards things at large.
The World is indeed a difficult place. O youngster of the day, follow the message religiously and you shall be as successful as a pack of hyenas chasing the loan deer, as satisfied as a Seamer clinching the tail ender and have a soul as clean as a Harpic cleaned WC!

Where did you pick this quote of his from?
Till you become successful you should keep your soul locked or does it mean that if you keep your soul locked you're bound to be successful is still unclear to me.
Honesty is a long tough game anyways!!
Aps, what his quote means is crystal clear if you wear the pragmatic "dark" glasses. If need arises and you have to choose between treading higher with integrtity and doing so by slackening your ideals, choose the later (ofcourse with the condition that do not slacken beyond a point!). You know, its like winning with honesty or winning with slightly loosened ideals. I guess you get the point.

"choose the later" to be read as "choose the latter"
Suppi,
Interesting comment.
It seems tailor made for the contemporary world.
But the purists wud beg to differ.
Eating non-veg once when nothing is available may b a practical thing to survive, but it doesnt keep u vegetarian any longer.
So, one murder is equivalent to hundred.One can't suit the world according to us.
Success does come to both kinds of ppl, pragmatists as well as the purists.Though the wait time is more for latter, which does make many a purists do a crossover during the journey.
Its a personal call, but being part of one ideology, esp in context of purists, one shud hv tolerance to withstand its vagaries.
