” You can do it, you will do it”. This was the motivation which my aunt gave me when I traveled alone for the first time. Maybe I wanted someone to give me a boost, a positive thinking that I can do it and there is no need to be scared. This one simple line made a big difference in my life that day and till this day whenever I feel low, I remind myself of this line. Everyone in their lives, from students to successful businessman, needs motivation to move ahead in life and succeed.

Being a student is not easy as it seems. There is a lot of expectation from a student. From waking up early everyday without fail, attending classes, doing assignments, meeting the deadlines, taking part in co- curricular activities to boost up the resume….. I can legit go on and on and on. The list is endless and if you are an Asian, you are expected to come amongst the first three rank holders in the class, get great scores and meet up to every expectation of parents. The pressure is tremendous and with the growing competition, it seems to get all more complex and difficult. Under such pressure, students often give up.

HOWEVER, it is very very important to never give up!! Running away from problems is never a solution. We must face our problems instead of shunning them. (yea!!! you must have heard about it like a zillion times, but it is really important). The moment you stop trying is the moment you give up. IT is OKAY to not be successful in the first attempt itself. We get many chances to prove ourselves and what is important is we should not take defeat as a indication that we are incapable. Make defeat a lesson, a more stronger reason in your life to succeed.

We all have a goal and make strong determination towards achieving it. However our motivations often tends to slacken over time. Don’t get disheartened by it, it is completely normal to feel so. The moment you feel you are lacking in your determination, make a new determination that ” I will start again from tomorrow”.  

Always remember you yourself are responsible for the decisions you take and the life you make. Make sure it is worth it. Life is short and we should live with a spirit of determination and motivation and always stay happy.
