"Envision yourself near the end of a fulfilling, lifelong career and you just published your autobiography. Share the tittle and introduction."
This is my very first essay and I think I'm missing a lot of things here. Critics expected, thank you :)
That one random chat
Growing up in a small city in Indonesia, the economic gap between the wealthy people and the middle low are quite significant. With one look, we can determine which group a person belongs to. It's that obvious.
My father and grand fathers are successful people, both economically and socially. Their business runs very smoothly for years and they contribute a lot to the society. I really want to be like them, especially my father who likes to join various society activities and has a very good ability to lead a company.
I used to be able to imagine myself running a big, successful company and being a public figure people look up to. But, as the years go by I realize that I have different skills from my father. I knew that it will be very hard for me to achieve what my father has done, moreover it would be almost impossible to out beat him.
I don't think it would be exaggerating to say that my mind, during my high school years, we're tortured. I didn't have the slightest idea of what I'm going to do in the future.
I thought about what I'm going to do after I graduate high school, every single day, and still reached a dead end, every single time. My grades were slipping and my motivation began to vapor. At one point, I was so stressed out, I had a nervous breakdown for one whole week.
"Now I'm just going to be a nobody," my mind keeps telling me. Just when I thought all hopes were gone, a friend of mine randomly chat me and told me something. That random, spontaneous chat actually was the key to re-open my door of dreams and motivation once again.
This is a story of how I fell from my land of dreams and was lifted back again by just one random chat.
