March is an atrocious and horrifying month

Yep, that’s what I have to go through. I
remembered four days ago, I updated my Facebook status “On the verge of giving
up for Economic Technical Report” after struggling to comprehend the concepts,
data analysis and theories explained in the Economics Journals given by my
lecturer. To exacerbate the situation, at that point, I only had 2 days to
complete that task which was almost impossible for me as my experiences proved
that I usually spent 2 weeks to write one economic paper as I am a
perfectionist which sometimes is a disadvantage.
5 Minutes after updating my status and just
as I was about to go to sleep at 1 am in the morning, many of my colleagues,
friends and people I knew ages ago commented on my status saying that I should
never ever give up as they said “Home (me)” they knew isn’t the kind of person
that would give up easily. Additionally, on the next day, my economics
lecturers also cheered me up and said that she was proud that I chose the
hardest questions out of the 3 options to tackle and she has FAITH in me and
she believes that I will be fine. After hearing all those comments and
encouragement, I suddenly felt so loved and pumped up to fight till the very
end.
Amazingly, I burnt the midnight oil,
cracked my brain and finished the economic report in 2 nights with an overall
of 3 hours of sleep in two days. However, I am so proud of it and the quality I
had produced.
I apologize for this boring and moaning in
this blog, however, my point that I want to mention is that if you are
struggling to finish your coursework at this time or in the future, you will
remember that you will be fine and people around you have faith in you that you
can succeed and counter any problems you have in life just like me. Today, I
had also watched an interview of a young entrepreneur on Youtube, this 25 years
old entrepreneur inherited a 20 millions pound debt after his dad’s death from
an unexpected illness, however, he slowly turned his dad’s business which was
on the verge of going bust into a billion pound worth company in 3 years with
his positive attitude and his belief on not giving up. Well, so to end,
although my story is really insignificant compared to what this young
entrepreneur has to face, but both imply that
giving up should not be an option for those who want to succeed.
