Life throws challenges at almost every point of time; it’s about us how maturely and calmly we tackle them and to overcome them what makes life beautiful. Happiness and sorrow, truth and lie, victory and defeat are two sides of the coin. Similarly, life is moments of happiness, success, appreciation, accompanied by failures, shortcomings, misery, or defeat. There is not a single human being who has reached his highest milestone without taking a walk through the bed of obstacles, struggles, and failures.
There have been many challenges that life has put across, but the most recent one was two years back. Back in my graduation days, in the final year, I recognized that I would pursue an MBA immediately after graduation. So, I had prepared for the entrance exams rigorously, took some timeout from regular academics to properly focus on these exams. The exam period started, and with every exam passing by my anxiety started increasing. The results started coming in and they were above average but not enough to land me in a good institute; this fact overwhelmed me. In that period, I came across a book ‘The Power of Your Subconscious Mind’, the book inspired me to dust myself off, get up and march down the same path but this time with confidence and learnings from my past mistakes. I gave it all I had and in the following year, I gave selected exams and excelled my results in those exams. That was a moment of joy for me, but the path to reach there was not smooth.
To sum it up, life can be beautiful like roses, but it comes with challenges which are like thorns and have to be faced and overcome by all.
