The time was for preparation
leave for final exams. I was supposed to be preparing for those, but my mind
was busy in brainstorming the ideas of business. The focus should have been studies,
but I couldn’t help it. Whether it maybe bike riding or swimming or a new idea,
I get so obsessed with it in early stages. When we could do a new thing, we get
so much interested that we want to explore every small thing of it and do it as
soon as possible. That excitement is different. For the whole day, I used to
think about how will I do it, what is going to happen, and the real work didn’t
even start, but I was visualizing lot of things.
In addition to that, I made a
discovery. From 3 years, I found 3 patterns in smile which could be related to
human nature, but in those days while thinking about smile and these business
strategies, I got a new ways to look smile. It resulted in 3 new patterns in
smile. I got those three patterns, but didn’t have criteria to relate to in
human nature. I was supposed to keep these things out of my mind, but it
actually equipped my mind. I wasn’t able to concentrate on studies. I was
thinking more about those 3 patterns and how to relate to human nature. The
obsession for smile was driving me away from the important things at that time.
The focus shifted results in undesired consequences. I wasn’t able to answer
questions in orals, college teachers were so disappointed with me and I was
being naïve with no sense of responsibility.
It was final year, the most
crucial. I had to graduate or things will get difficult in future. The most
difficult part, which is convincing my parents to let me choose the road less
travelled will get more difficult if I don’t have a degree certificate. Else, they
wouldn’t believe in me thinking that if I can’t crack the university exam, how
will I survive the tougher challenges of life? Maybe they would ask me to do a
job first and then do the business as part time, or they would never be
convinced with my idea, because it doesn’t exist and thinking no one will pay
me for that, I’ll struggle for making ends meet. Lots of challenges were there,
but the most important thing at that time was to complete graduation and if I don’t
study, how will I pass?
Eventually, it happened what
I didn’t want to happen. I couldn’t focus on studies; my mind was overflowing
with ideas and fantasies all the time. I used to open the book, but the focus
was on smile. Due to lack of focus, I couldn’t write enough to pass the
examination. I left two papers blank, barely wrote to get 20 marks out of 100.
I was in deep trouble. Things were happening with me much faster that I couldn’t
relax my mind and focus on important thing. The discovery supposed to be
blessing, but I made it a tragedy by being naïve. I didn’t even know how would
I tell my parents that I was getting 2 backlogs? They don’t believe in concepts
living a dream, living in uncertainty or taking risks to follow passion and
sacrificing everything to focus on one thing. They always believed in getting a
well secured job and do everything else after the start of fixed income. I
realized my mistake, but the time was gone. Only consequences were the sure
thing, and I wasn’t going to like it.
