Life will be
tough to you if you remain constant and don’t adapt to the changing times. The change
can be in any form, as personal level change, as professional level change or as
social change.it is tough to adapt to changes if one does not have strong will power
or decision making power.
I took such
a tough decision on 18th Feb 2011 to move to Bangalore, a city that
is around 2300 Kms away from my home. Only motivation behind taking that
decision was to have a Successful Life on my own terms without depending on my
family. It was aimed to get a nice job based on my qualification and then keep
growing there. I was happy when I decided that but it was tough on emotional level
not only for me but also for my loved ones. Imagine you leaving your loved ones
on one fine day with whom you have spent beautiful moments of your life. So
like every other person It was almost emotionally breaking decision for
everyone in family, but I had strong enough will power to get out of that emotion and
start the journey of my dreams.
Once I came
to Bangalore and joined my 1st job within 1 month of coming here,
one thing was clear in my mind and that was my Goal for which I have come so
far. I still remember my 1st salary getting credited in bank account
and then that night of 28th Feb came in my mind when I was waiting
for train at Station for a long journey ahead. Had I become emotionally weak on
that night and gone back home, I would have never got this feeling of happiness
of living on my own. At that time my will power and tough decision making had
paid off but there was long way to go. I kept working hard week after week,
month after month and kept growing and in 4 years of journey in Bangalore I have
come a long way successfully. Yes I do miss spending quality time with loved
ones and home-made food , I do get emotional many times but feeling of being
able to live on your terms and your own resources is immense. It makes you a
man from a boy. It develops your personality as responsible human being. I have
been able to do all this with only one tough decision that I had taken 4 years
back and looking back I have no regret for it.
We need to
keep taking decisions, sometime small ones in our day to day life and sometimes big
and tough ones that determines how we are going to go ahead in life and what we
are going to achieve in life. Just keep believing in yourself and keep taking strong
decision to become a better person than you are now. I did it and it paid off
for me. A decision taken at a right time is the best decision taken in life.
