Let it go - he told. He was a very nice friend of mine and was in a dire attempt to help his buddy; and this was the suggestion he gave. It was the moment when I had done fairly bad in the job interview. The advice was not at all a surprise to me, atleast am hearing it for the umpteenth time.
Whether it be the moment of performance appraisal where the company failed to give a fair evaluation (atleast that's what we feel all the time), or it be the time you scored pretty badly in any examination or interview (yes, as always the bad luck attributed towards this), or the times when you have a bad relationship, this advice is nothing new.
But how long? and for what this sacrifice? Are we losing away the power to fight back? Or are we so complacent to give away things like that? Life is never that easy. Where happened to the inspiration we gained from the great success stories during our childhood? What made us change? Are these things too simple and easy to let them go off easily? Are we too simple beings to accept these failures by trying to put the blame on the so called fate? It hurts really badly when you lose something in life you cared the most or you loved the most.
The frustration it develops in letting the things go in their own way, the inability at times when you can't change the destiny or fate of yours, the sheer sense of failure when things get out of our hand, all these accounts for sculpting out the so called professional and career success. How well you adapt to these changes, these uncertainties the life throws before us or how better you anticipate these outcomes-it all depends on the self evaluation of oneself.
Life is never an easy journey. Challenges always wait at the next corner.
