As I mentioned in my last blog of Integrative Seminar that was Integrative Seminar (week 5) that some incidents or person can change our lives drastically and introduced some of the occurrences with some quotes associated to them. In week 6, we were told to describe ourselves in 500 words. So I have to choose some of them and elaborate on the ones who played an important in my life. I felt like that it was difficult to pick some of them because every incident taught me something important that’s why I have their impression on my mind after a long time too. But according to the word limit, I can’t elaborate all of them. So I chose one which was more significant to me and refined it. When I imagined it, I can feel every moment happened to me at that time every feeling was so strong. So I took past glimpse of it and found it something like this. So the moment was my ’10th trials’, and the quote I associated with it is ‘Success is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm’ by Winston Churchill.
My 10th trials:- When life tries to shatter you down, it is to check that do you deserve the success or not. This is what I felt during my journey of 10th standard. A guy with lots of dreams under his eyes just trying to make himself productive and significant. Faced with a slope towards failures and trying to figure out what I can do balance myself in that slope so that, can’t go forward, at least I can stand. Participated in lots of school activities but I did nothing except shivering my confidence. After some time I stopped even trying. But then this rusted wheel got a push from well-wishers. Then I lubricated myself somehow and just studied my past mistakes and found that one of the reasons for my failures is my fear of trying or giving it my best or worry of failures. Then I prepared my mind a night before my next try for my success over myself, and then I got the self-satisfaction when I finally proved myself on the stage. That day I lit up a fire in my eyes to see the opportunities more widely.
So this was the incident which improved me to a great extent, that’s why it’s important to me. So this week was an emotional ride of past for me giving me a strong feeling of nostalgia.
