SELF DEVELOPMENT AND HANDLING HARDSHIPS

Self development is developing ourselves to be better to survive in this competitive world. It builds confidence and makes us stronger. Advice from people is needed too, but self development leads to transformation of an individual. It takes time to discover what's within us and bring it out. But we'll figure it out somehow. The moment we know what stuff we got inside, we would set a goal and want to achieve it. The journey might be long, so most people find it hard to reach the destiny, or some don't even start. Whoever started well might not be on the top always. There are high and lows everywhere on Earth. It is the same with life. Even when you face a hurdle, know that it is all within the stage of progress. As the famous quote reads, "Failure is the stepping stone to success", every time you couldn't make it, every time you got rejected, every time you couldn't reach the place you wanted, don't lose hope. If you could see this with a different perspective, you can find that you failed, but you learned something through it. So you will do good next time without repeating the same mistake. Keep trying, because winners don't quit on themselves. Resume from the end. Every step you take towards reaching your goal, every effort you put, and every drop of sweat, it is all progress. A teacher can only teach. A coach can only train you. People can only tell you what to do. But it is the commitment you make to study, to practice and to make decisions. Nobody forces a caterpillar to become a butterfly. It develops itself by doing what it is supposed to do. And no one breaks open a cocoon to set free the butterfly. It pierces through the layer and comes out. Then it flies high with the beautiful wings it has and flaunts it. If a butterfly can do so much, why can't we? The six senses that we have must be of some use. Otherwise, it is utter waste. Make the days of your life meaningful. Do something every day. If you don't try, you can't sparkle. Have the guts to face anything in life. All days are not sunny, and all nights don't produce storms. Look what is in front of you. Find yourself where you are supposed to be. No one is gonna stop when you work in silence. Your mind will tell how your life would be. Take good care of it and don't think of any bad ideas. If life tasted sweet every time, you'll get used to it, and it would be boring. When you see the result, you will feel it was all worth it. You are not a winner if you are not challenged. Because winning is not a talent by birth. It comes out of the efforts we put in. You can do it, since you are the best. And nobody can take up your role. It is reserved for you to complete successfully. How much you have to work on yourselves? So keep developing yourself every day to handle things every day.
