Think it right, get it right..

Like the two sides of a coin, which may be symbolizing two different things but they both are an integral part of the coin nonetheless.  No matter how different they are, but the presence of both is necessary to constitute the legitimacy of the coin or else it loses its own value. The same analogy applies to our lives where we are stuck with very different situations; one filled with melancholy and in the other situation when we are riding the horse of merriment. Most of us don’t realize our potential unless we are struck with adversity. When it hits hard, we either flee or face it with our full strength. Most of the people, who might share the ride of merriment with us, run equally faster when the adversity strikes. What we are left with is our determination and optimism. These are the only two weapons that that sees us through that rough patch.

Optimism is a very rare weapon carried by very rare person. A person’s want for optimism is mainly checked when he is into adversity and most of the time people cower and fall prey to the pessimistic beast and succumb to the unpleasant situation. One who carries the optimistic sword, if not win over the bad situation, they at least fight it with a smile and a cool head making way for better ideas to hover around in head.

I remember when I had just completed my twelfth standard and was in quandary as to what should I do next. My results were not so skyrocketing which would allow me to get admitted into some high profile colleges of engineering. It was then that I started to panic and blind myself of opportunities which were just around the corner. I then heard about one of my friends who in a same position the previous year but gotten himself admitted to some very prestigious institute.

This news filled me with optimism as he was my schoolmate I the past and I had always been a better student than him academically. I was thrilled with a new wave of energy showing me a ray of hope that I could nail it as well . I learned that he had joined a certain institute for tuition for which I got nominated too. I went to put in maximum of my effort to prove myself my worth. Whenever I felt low, I tried to figure my friend’s face in my mind repeating the optimistic phrase that if could, then I can too.

Not very long after he was admitted, I started scoring decent marks in mock exams which later converted into one of the best marks among the group. Then came  the D-day when I was in a position to secure a seat in a better college than he was in. I was filled with joy and enthusiasm. A similar example was reiterated when I saw an ad about Housing, which also spoke about enthusiasm and positivity.

One lesson was learnt the hard way that no matter what hard work intertwined with optimism and positivity bears its fruit at last.
