Because, I want to do it!!!

Whatever you want to do it,you really want to do it and you feel that is right, Do it. Never let others decide whether you would be able to do it or not or it is right or wrong.

In my 11th grade my close friends were playing for our state roller hockey before that they used to play ground hockey with me since it used to happen in school. I always longed that my parents like their parents take me to stadium too, and I also get to play and take part in tournaments. It never happened, and my parents always consider only good their child can do to herself would be getting good grades.I was just about above average, never a topper but always used to make it as I remember I used to associate my dignity to almost anything.

I alone went and took up roller hockey, my father sternly said ‘NO’ as he didn’t think it will take me anywhere. I borrowed skates from my friends brother and with no sports shoes and no track suit. No, money was never a constraint if this is going there but my parents never think it was a great idea to delve into roller hockey at this age, I was 18 or 19 at that time. When getting to good college was utmost important and balancing on skates for me would be quite difficult or you can say impossible.

I did it, and became part of my state hockey team and our team did win gold medal as well. A confession I didn’t even know roller skating properly and was laughing stock of the spectators too with hatred of other team members owing to least experience and for my luck for getting a place in the state team.

By winning gold medal each team member gets 10,000 rupees as scholarship. With that first thing I got for myself was a sports shoes and from that money my first bank account was opened and that bank account always has money and I learned to always keep some money aside for dreams, passions or aspirations. I also got admission in comparatively good college for the same reason and things started falling in place.

Right now, I am in one of those situation again I am slogging and whatever I am putting is not leading me anywhere. Probably I should be grateful it is making me go through that interesting path again and I would like to think this is happening for the reason too. I am seriously thinking of a career change following what I would like to do and whenever I discuss the same with friends. I get the answer wherever you would go , you would find the similar type of work. I answer them then I will change from there too. Unless I find something which makes me passionate about and when I get up in the morning I look forward for my day.

If you wanted to do something, and you are not doing because others are telling you won’t be able to do it, then you are doing biggest injustice to yourself, stop leading someone's else life.

Do it because you want to do it, not because other did it or other didn’t do it and things will start falling in place.

PS: I am not saying you shouldn't listen to others advice, you should always listen to what people has to say but do what you think will make you happy.
