Yeah! You Should Have a Faith in Yourself

I want to share a little experience of my life.

I studied Electrical Engineering. Actually, It’s not the course which I want. My father suggested me and after 10+2 no one knows what actually they want to become in their life. So, I selected Electrical Engineering but I wanted to do from IIT (Indian Institute of Technology) which is the well-known University of India. I tried 2 years to get admission in it. After the 1st trial, I didn’t clear the entrance examination. So, my father told me “for now choose any college and then prepare for IIT entrance examination.”

I did the same and got admission at Govt. Engg. College, Valsad. Again I tried and I failed again. I was so frustrated. And I finally decided to continue the study from my current college. I was not very well aware of my decision at that time. After graduation, I started looking for a job. I applied many power plants and other companies as well but I rejected.

I didn’t know the situation after graduation at that time I took a decision. Sometimes I thought If I didn’t give up and again tried then definitely I got selected but I was scared. “What if I didn’t get selected? I’ll waste 3 years.” I was thinking about the 3 fucking years if I didn’t clear the exam in my 3rd attempt. But at that time, I didn’t think about my whole life I was thinking about only 3 years of my life.

I don’t know why I did this. I think I didn’t have faith in myself. And I gave up. I learned many things from this experience that never give up and you should have faith in yourself. Because of you and only, you know yourself better. What you want in your life, what makes you happy, your strong & weak points etc.

I think life is all about the taking decision, making yourself happy, do what you love, making mistakes and learn from it. Do what makes you happy and which you passionate about. If you have a goal in your life (if don’t then don’t worry, it’s okay to not have a goal) and you are very confident about it then just do it and do the best you can to achieve it. Just be yourself and have faith in yourself.
