Life in 20’s

How many times did you look back and was proud of your younger self atleast once?

Look at your younger self and compare it with your present self. 

A decade back, when I was almost failing, if someone had come up to me and said. Hey - I am from the future. And I have some exciting news for you.

In next 10 years, your fears will be your greatest strength.

You would have achieve your biggest dream. 

You will be loved and respected by a lot of people. 

A lot of people will be inspired from you. ​

I would have told the person to get a CT Scan and get their brain checked! :)) 

How easy things would be if we believe that future person… 

A lot of us would be going through something similar in our lives. 

A new company, a new city, a new career, a new relationship, a new experience. 

And it may not always turn out to be what you wanted it to be. 

But that’s not the end. 

There is never any end, until the day we all die. 

Up until that day, you have yourself. 

And I wish for you to find that yourself one day. 

Life in 20's feel like everything should need to be sorted. 

Everyone are sorted then why I'm the odd one out? 

Most probably we just care about going faster than winning. 

Cause we believe if we go faster we'll achieve things faster than the rest of the world, but remember slow & steady wins the race. 

The faster we try to achieve something, the lesser are the chances of achieving it. Cause we care about success not the process of success. 

Remember the quote: The grass on the other side always look greener. 

We see people finding their purpose, achieving their goals effortlessly. 

Since, we’re hardwired to believe only the success part, we believe it’s soo easy for some people and impossible for the rest. 

What we don’t look at is the backend story, their failures, their hardwork, their sleepless nights, and their efforts. 

One reason is that people feel embarrassed sharing it. 

They only present the successful show because they know people would enjoy the perfect front stage drama not the backstage chaos. 

 Here comes the greatest truth of 20’s: 

• You can do anything you put your mind into. 

• Once you believe you can’t do it, no matter what the world believes, you can’t do it. 

• You have to go through failures, only then you can tell how success tastes like. 

• Without losing something, you’ll not value something you achieve. 

• You’re not special, you’re journey is something that makes you special.
