How I overcame challenges in life-Anant Jain,NMIMS Mumbai
Each an everyone of us must go through the obstacles and challenges in life to achieve our goals. My journey has been no different than the rest. My first real hurdle in life came after I chose science in class 11th. I did not think it would be this difficult to manage studies with my coaching classes for B. Tech entrance exams. The real shock came to me when I failed in my mid term examinations in class 11th and this was the first time I have failed in my entire life. My entire confidence was shaken, and I could barely eat for the next 2 days. My sister was the person who helped me get over my depression. Being an engineer herself she could relate to my situation and made me realize that in the long run this result would not make any difference to my career if I remain focused. “Does this mid term result will stop you from being what you aspired for?” she asked me. This question hit me deep. That day I decided to stop cribbing about the things that had already happened and start focusing on what lies ahead. From what I introspected that day, I found that my real problem was that I kept thinking too much instead of acting on them. Hard work is something from which you should never run away. The more effort you put in, the greater the reward is waiting for you on the other side. With this belief I keep moving towards my goals in life embracing every challenge instead of avoiding them.
