To learn to speak:
Each of us face many challenges in our life. Some of them are forgotten the very next day, some stay with us for life, always there in the background pushing us, motivating us, reminding us that we can be more than we are today, that no challenge is too difficult to overcome, no challenge so great that it would successfully resist a spirited attempt to solve it.
When I was a kid, in 5th standard I think, I had this problem of stammering. Now, mind you, this was no small thing. For a child who was not the most social of the lot, this was an added impediment that reduced my confidence and made me shirk responsibilities. A small issue of not being able to properly pronounce certain alphabets seemed to me to be this huge demon that’d forever hold sway over me and prevent me from doing anything properly.
Many a great men have put forward their view on the challenges. You can read them, re read them, feel motivated by them, but when it comes to actually overcoming a difficulty in your own life it can often seem insurmountable. No fancy words work there, no great quote comes to mind, you’re there alone facing down your demon and hoping you can just sneak through. More like a thief than a hero with a blazing halo behind his head.
And thus, I tried this and that, roundabout ways of solving the issue. They all led back to the same place. Only after much trials and tribulations did I realize that running away was not the solution, I need to acknowledge the problem and try to overcome it. And so began my fight with this demon who had haunted me for life. It took months, maybe even years, because the improvement is so gradual you never really notice it. So any progress you make is on blind hope rather than empirical results. Finally though, I was speaking comfortably and without any stops and gaps. The day I realized that I had overcome my problem was the happiest day of my life and it continues and will continue to motivate me throughout my life.
