Own Your Decisions and Embrace them!

Everyone has desires and dreams in their childhood of what they want to be in future but above that, when they get to know the theory the choices get narrow down. But the irony is it is not only our choice to choose what we want to be in our lives but what others want us to be, or how they want us to do that. We spend most of the time of this life and our youth making others satisfied of our career and other choices we made but what about us? We get frustrated and shallow inside. We feel the work load and furious over times.

On the other hand, if we chose what we actually want to be regardless of what other want us to be, we will own our choices. We might earn lower than many of our peers but we will not be frustrated. I believe that there will be more chances to grow and be more productive.

For instance, I have always done what I wanted for but that was not the case with my very own brother. When he was doing his matriculation, he used to abscond from the academy on Friday and Saturday and it turned out that he had joined vocalist sessions at Alhamra Art Council. My father was so upset and he was not allowed to complete that session. He did what my parents wanted him to be, an engineer. He could not score extremely well in FSc so he got admission in BS (CS) at a private institute. It has been said quite right that where there is a will, there is a way. He managed to join the music society at his university and made his university won battle of bands more than twice. On the other side, he got frustrating grades in CS. All in all, it ended up in the way that he took a stand, faced extremely serious warnings by my parents, zero financial support by parents and emotional support by peers and much more. He was determined and he owned his decision of not continuing CS at all and he also expressed his interest in Mass communication. To the surprise, he did not only succeed in securing admission in Mass com but he got full scholarship for his 4 years and he has officially launched his first song by now that has been bought by one of the top production house.

Now what the scenario is, my parents are not offended any more. Instead, they believe him that he will do great with himself. He is not frustrated anymore about the grades and his career. He can study and work day and night now, because he is doing what he loves the most. Now, they understand the fact, and "You" also need to understand it; 

 "To own a decision requires courage that only comes with passion and determination to do something and the fire within to prove yourself. It is in there all of us, we just need to dig it out and own it before it gets even too late to regret."
