Why you can't get what you want?
We are living in a highly competitive world. Starting from an entry into kindergarten to getting promotion in a job we have to compete with someone. Many a times we have to loose before destiny. And the same big question echoes in our minds, "Why I can't get what I want?". I am sure all of us have been victims of this twisted Enigma and some point in our lives.
I still remember the time during my college days, when I was struggling to get placed into a good company. I tried a lot, but the thing was that i was unable to clear through initial screening round. I struggled a lot. Many, a times i asked myself and God, "What's happening?" I know very well I am capable, but still i couldn't figure out where things went wrong. I started giving try to almost every opportunity on my way, irrespective of what i really wanted. Because, these days Freshers are beggars and beggars don't have a choice. But, knowing or unknowingly every blow i had to face was changing me in a positive way. My knowledge bank was increasing .Then finally came, my ninth attempt. To be frank, I would have never cleared their rounds if I was not faced with my previous blows. The biggest lesson I learnt
"Struggle is Nature's Law for survival!"
But still, as a human being we'll always get disheartened, when you fail after trying so hard. Even sadder thing is that we end up giving our goals. Maybe there is a particular reason why we can't get what we want? As I said in my previous example, let me stress again on the fact, if I got to any companies before the ninth one, somewhere during the course I would have failed. I was not prepared mentally for the challenge that laid there. My eight defeats prepared me to emerge as a might warrior. Now there is something that I believe truly
"When you fail, even after trying so hard; it just means that your plans and God's plans contradict .Remember, God's plans are always higher and better than yours."
We are here for a purpose; our creator knows well what we want. Don't get dejected because if you're living a life that is not yours. Age is never a barrier to chase your dream .Never top trying; who knows maybe sometimes even destiny can bow before determination. Else, there will be a lot of things that's going to bother you on you're death bed.
I would like to summarize my article by re-quoting the words:
"When you fail, even after trying so hard; it just means that your plans and God's plans contradict .Remember, God's plans are always higher and better than yours."
Good Luck Go and chase your dream
