As we grow older, we constantly learn and relearn many things from our experiences. Our parents and teachers have played a big role in motivating and inspiring us to achieve not just big, but better things in life. That is one of the main reasons why students like me had the courage to rise up despite facing difficult times during school days.
The situation is no different in adulthood. In fact, as we grow up, we encounter even more failures, rejections, and mistakes. Life presents us with many difficult circumstances, and during such times, we need immense courage to rise from the bottom.
Life is completely unpredictable. One day you might have everything, and the next day, you could lose it all. An empire that took a hundred years to build could turn into ashes in a single day. In the grand scheme of things, it may not matter much to the planet or the universe—but for us humans, even small losses can feel devastating. For example, losing a job can instantly turn someone from being independent to feeling like a burden to their family. Such moments can bring countless thoughts spinning through our minds.
However, it’s exactly at times like these that we must keep things simple and reflect on the bigger picture. Ask yourself, “Does this really matter as much as I think it does?” This kind of self-questioning and self-motivation is crucial for rising from the ruins during hard times. Every moment in our lives is precious, and we learn something new each and every day. Therefore, it’s not fair to spend this precious life in fear, despair, and anxiety. Life is truly worthy only when it is lived to the fullest.
