The most charming, cute, bubbly friend of mine moved to Germany three years ago. We shared an apartment and worked for the same company. I used to eat the veg part from her non-veg plate. She is a person who can bring a smile on anyone’s face. She is a mother of two years old baby. Now when her baby is manageable enough, she is planning to get back to work. But she has a work gap of three years. She is worried and scared of all the advancements that she missed in last three years. She is afraid of failure because things are not easy at present.

This was when it struck me that it wouldn’t be worth doing if it were easy. It’s all about how much you push yourself — your efforts and resolutions matter. I read a poem in childhood titled with life is no life without struggle. Don’t get scared of the failures. Struggles and failures are proof that you are trying. Isn’t it much better than fear of not trying at all?

The great inventor Thomas Alva Edison rightly said, “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” Therefore always motivate yourself to try one more time. You will eventually get what you want.
