“Victory is not the property of brilliants. Its the crown for those who bow them in front of hard work and confidence.”
1st Feb..!! I was happy organizing an event, just like every other presenter in the room even I had 15 slides in my presentation there where many international delegates who somehow manage to be present there, I was very confident on my presentation that day and was waiting for my turn, deep in my mind I felt like I was the only dumb guy there who was muddled with a thought of, if the audience here is to judge me on my presentation. Everything was fine until a well-wisher of mine whispers in my ears, “Son you need to make your presentation short and sweet, you have 3 minutes and you need to convey your product to them.” I was stunned as for the fact all the other presenters where given 15 minutes for their presentation, I felt like my tongue just got rolled up like a roller coaster that threw me into complete stress, I asked him one more time “are you sure sir..?”, and the only word I could hear back was “absolutely son”, I was called in no minute my face shrank like a sponge dipped into stress filled with nervousness, silence all over, my legs were shivering my hand where cold and I only knew I was going to get scolded. I was walking left right did a lot of dram on stage, tick tock the clock is such a shock, off 2 minutes 45 seconds and I just took a long breath, and that’s when I realized I was a train running in a hyperloop faster than it would ever could, I understood that my presentation sucked. The only word the jury members uttered was “We are CONFUSED”, and I started to prove my product, again and again, I started to prove the theories, laws that were never ever solved, the jury said “Its okay to say you don’t know and its always right to say I will get back to you“, but I only knew I had lost miserably that day.
Today I was in an elevator with an Investor and I could very well convey my product to him just in time, he walked away on his busy schedule but this time he lent me his card and said call me I am interested to work with you and to hear this it just took me 2 minutes and 38 seconds.
And today I realized the importance of that day, “I didn’t Fail to Fall I Failed to Succeed“, and that’s when I realized the well-wisher thought me a very important lesson of my life and that is when I understood, “If the path is beautiful, let’s not ask where it leads… But if the destination is beautiful, Let us not ask how the path is..!” thus we need to understand it’s very important to be confident and it’s okay to fail for good.
“THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT is what called as DARKNESS similarly the absence of SUCCESS is what called as FAILURE”, we just need to be that strong light that can emit failure and see the right side of the world.
