Come what may



It hurts when your closest family members don't believe in you. It hurts that your partner does not support you. There will be lots of disagreements, arguments, fights, tears, emotional stress...

Sometimes, you wonder if you are on the right path or you have made the right decision.

And when you encounter setbacks after setbacks.. you really struggle to stay strong to prevent yourself from spiraling downwards.

And you do all you can, though sometimes, it may not be good enough.

Change is scary. Growing a spine is scary. Losing friends (or who you thought are friends) are scary.

Fear: False Evidence Appearing Real; Quoted from my favorite movie Pain and Gain.

It's easier said / written than to believe it. But you will come at a junction in your life where you will no longer care how people view you. And, that is the greatest feeling of all.

So, whatever part you are on, you just keep fighting. Keep on going, the struggle is real but it doesn't matter because you know in your heart that THAT is your calling! That is what you are meant to do! Go and chase it!

Epiphanic Moments - My Road to Success

The dictionary describes;

Epiphany - a moment of sudden and great revelation or realization

Epiphanic Moments - a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.



When you have attained success, people will want to be like you. But people don't know the trials that you would have to go through while you are trying to build up your success. People will never know what it's like or how difficult it is to be in that starter position.

It's comforting when people understand, but it's more comforting when you understand.

Just like today - I was only one stop away from my destination but the train took a few minutes longer to reach there because the train that was ahead, had some issues. Panic was activated because announcements came in one after another. Staying calm helps because we have to trust our own journey, right? Panicking will not help.

Success is exactly like that - it may seem near but it's really quite a distance away. But that's the thing, you don't know the meaning of that sentence until YOU, in your own flesh, are in that situation and can understand the meaning of it.

So, what is success? Well, just be thankful for the little things in life and you have found yourself to be truly successful. Don't sweat the small stuff. :)
