Overcoming Challenges

Challenges are what drive us to bridge the gap between who we are and what we should become to make our mark in this ephemeral time we have as human beings. Succumbing to anxiety, pressure or any hardship is not what life wants out of a person, rather it is the glory one finds after battling all the hardships. Like everyone out there, I have also battled my way out and I am willing to do so forever, since for me success is not at the peak but around the things I like doing and things which according to me impact the world as well. For me, success was the time when I helped my small cousin understand a math problem or when I made an effort to come out of my comfort zone and team up with new people for the class project activity in school. I have encountered many personal challenges as well, being good in school does not imply one is perfect in life and I learned it quite early. The one thing I have always kept in mind is do what it takes to win the moment, and never regret later about the things which could have been done in past and wonder about the impact those things might have created. And the most important learning one should be clear about is to let go of things because one of my main mantras is: no one has ever lived a life the same way an individual has, and that is what makes that individual unique.
