If life slaps you, you should punch it back

If life slaps you, you should punch back - This is the thought which came to my mind when I came to know about my friend completing his PhD in solid state physics. For those who dont know -

"Solid-state physics, the largest branch of condensed matter physics, is the study of rigid matter, or solids, through methods such as quantum mechanics, crystallography, electromagnetismand metallurgy. Solid-state physics considers how the large-scale properties of solid materials result from their atomic-scale properties. Solid-state physics thus forms the theoretical basis ofmaterials science, as well as having direct applications, for example in the technology of transistors and semiconductors."

The reason why this thought came to me was for the fact the person who did completed his PhD was not allowed to sit in the chemistry paper of his Pre Engineering Test, and his whole effort of two years were gone waste. His dreams were shattered. But some how, we all knew he is not the person who will give up, and we were true. We all get unlucky at times but our efforts never get wasted.

When Edison repeatedly failed in his invention of a light bulb, after finally succeeding, he said "I know of a thousand ways how not to lit a bulb". Failure is the only step to success, and there are no shortcuts. I feel everyone should put in the efforts to be successful. At least you will not regret in the end. I always see complains that our hard work is not payed off, but honestly if we see deep within we all know why we failed. It may not be important for the world to know that you are wrong the only person who should realize this is you and the revolution will happen within you. The point is we should not live in denial, acceptance of our issues is the first step towards improvement.

Its important to believe in yourself if you are really depressed get some energy from your family, friends and colleagues and pump up your dreams again. The dreams are like small plants, you need to nourish them, care for them and make them grow big and strong. So that they get so deep routed that nothing can break or shake them and your actions are driven by your dreams.

We cannot grow bigger than our dreams. So dream big work hard and enjoy the ride..... :)
