Sometime, we’ve all felt like we’re drowning in mud.
You feel stuck, worthless, and confused.
You want to move. You should. You have to. But you can’t.
And then it evolves into anxiety, fear, and depression.
But what if—just what if—being stuck isn’t the problem, but how we perceive it?
From our childhood our teachers, our parents and so called relatives have taught us that
If you study hard you got good result.
If you got good result you get good job.
And As usual habit of finding pattern we tend our mind that
When we put in X amount of work, we get Y results.
So we also set a Y for our life and started putting X amount of work.
When we set meaningful goals, we tend to push ourselves with our entire mind.
But, the truth is that life doesn’t work out in a linear way, there are many different factors. The road of life passes through all kinds of unexpected twists, turns, and bumps.
You may put your 100% in X amount of work and still not reach to your Y.
And at that time having such rigid expectations will ultimately lead you to crash, when your plans don’t work out.
A 19 year old boy worked as an ambulance driver, he decided to fulfil his dream. So, quit his job and started his first company but at that time he had little money to pay rent, being forced to live with friends and often without food. But he failed to sell a single product.

But grow through it. And some day magical happen.
