Eighth months ago I dropped my studies in college. I quit my dream. I felt like the whole world looking down at me and crushing me on the ground. There was no hope around to pursue what I want. i was totally discouraged and accept the embrace of failure. I was failed like a candle in the cold winter. Crawling, screaming... why? I was striving like those people who are successful. I dreamed too but why it happened to me?
Yeah I surrendered but not Thomas Alva Edison. Edison failed for how many thousand times but he did not complain. He did not stop. He knew that working hard and perseverance are the key to the realization of every dream. Not only working and dreaming but also determination and passion. Doing things without these elements would be worthless. That's what happened to Charles Babbage. Babbage was one of the great inventors but he did not able to finish any of his inventions. He was always starting and leaving what he had started forever.
After how many months I realized my fault. I was awakened. I blamed myself why i surrendered during those times when problems surrounded me. I want to be great and successful but how if i can't stand when trouble comes. NOW i see what really the problem in me. I am afraid. i have feared in me. Fear of trying, to stand alone and fear of losing. These weaknesses sunk me lower. These weaknesses made me sick. I lost my self confidence. This is terrible!
What makes great men famous? I ask myself this question. After a while the answer came to my mind. Their courage, determination, passion and hard work made them great. They are great problem solver of the world's trouble. They believe something and stand on it even the whole world criticized them. They don't stop working on it. Thus, problem made them famous. Great men are produced by great problems.
Sometimes we pity ourselves yet we don't know that there are people carrying heavier problem than what we have.
