I've always remembered the quote of Winston Churchill, that "success is moving from one failure to another without any lose of enthusiasm." This saying always reminds me that everybody has ever experienced failure, which is often painful. If ones decide to keep suffering from their loss, they are chained with the notion that they will never be able to proceed. On the contrary, if ones decide to make it a lesson and move on, they are one step closer to the goal.
I've failed many times in every aspect of life. I've shed tears of sorrow and joy. People who don't know me think that I am a lucky person because of what I am; however, they may not know how I was dying to be me, how everything has been so hard on me. One time I was on the peak of the mountain and suddenly I fell down from the cliff. Some cases were because of my own fault but there were things and conditions I couldn't really change. Until now, some memories are still saddening to remember, but some others make me believe that miracles do happen to me.
This year has not ended, and I am still left behind compared to others who started along with me. Seeing those who have reaped the fruits of their hard work, I become motivated and intimidated at the same time. I am motivated to light again the spirit inside me and believe that I can actually be what I want. Still, I am afraid of not being able to do things according to plan. I've got many other plans, but how many would be enough?
Anyway, my decision is to do my best this time. In case I don't succeed, I will try again until I make it; probably there will be 100 persons who say "no" to me, but I will find 1 who say "yes." I have always promised to myself that I want to decide my own future and I am here on my way to it.
