Find Motivation in the Trust People show in you
When I was a kid, my grandfather used to tell me a story about a dragon. In the story, there was a small dragon who couldn't fly yet. The dragon was very scared to take its first flight but the mother dragon supported and motivated it and finally, the baby dragon was confident enough to take its first flight. The moral of the story was, 'Find motivation in the trust people show in you'. This moral had a deep impact on me but as time passed, the moral also went obsolete.
A few months ago, after I was done with the CAT examination and had to appear for interviews, I was under a lot of pressure. This was leading me into depression. My parents saw this as a matter of concern and tried to talk to me about it before one of the interviews. This was when I cried my heart out to them. My parents have always been very supportive. My father told me that it didn’t matter whether I made it to a premium business school or not. They were always proud of me. I just had to go out there and give my best. I found these words extremely motivating. They reminded me of the story that my grandfather told me. I found motivation in the trust my parents showed in me. After this, I decided that I had to live up to their expectations. This boosted me with confidence to attend the interviews and I finally secured admission in Xavier Institute of Technology. This episode taught me the lesson that there will always be obstacles in life but if you have people who trust you, you will find the courage to leap over those obstacles.
