A RAY OF HOPE

Have  you ever faced a situation where you could just hope and do nothing? Well i believe most of you will say yes. It is very obvious to come across such circumstances where you are left with nothing but just a hope. Life is a long journey and so some or the other day we have to face it. We do take risks with a “ hope “ that it may turn out to be positive .

It is very well said by Martin Luther King Jr “ we must accept finite disappointment but never lose infinite hope . Infinite wish is a way to overcome temporary hindrances or failures to one’s goals.  Where there is hope there is a way.  Wish or desire is a way that keeps a person optimist about the outcome whether it is regarding job or career or choosing partner or any surgery anything. It is always said hope for the best and prepare for the worst. We should try to be optimist in all possible phase of life no matter what . Positivity gives us a hope and hope gives us optimistic result. If there would be no hope then no one will come up with an idea of opening a start up , no will prepare for competition exams ,none of the doctors would perform surgery and so on. This world is based on hope , without hope our lives will be meaningless.

Hope is like the feathers to our dreams. Every person works hard ,struggle and face hardships to fulfill their dream, to live a standard lifestyle but i think when a person works with an aspiration it is assured that they will achieve success. In INDIA there is a great saying “Umeed par duniya kayam hai” that means the whole world or universe is based on hope.

Success comes in many ways. Sometimes they teach you lesson, sometimes they reward you. Learn from all probable step of achievement .Not every time it is necessary you will achieve victory or a positive outcome but remember we should certainly  assure for a brighter tomorrow in spite of the darkness we are facing today. When you get in an odd state where everything goes against you and you could not hold on for a minute or longer, never give up then. That condition or state may take a turn and things may change to be favorable and beneficial.Our whole life is based on hope whether it is our love life not working or our professional life not finding stable job or family problems conflicts between the members of a family , we inevitably wish that it will end one day .Every other day we face problems or difficulties but we overcome it because we have a believe that it will end the bad time will pass on and there will be a brighter side of it.

“Tell me something about yourself” , this question is very common still most unanswered or not responded clearly by an individual. It is truly said that no one can know you better than yourself but when it comes to describe yourself in front of others so that they may know you better why most of us are left with a blank option basically in an interview especially for the freshers applying for their first job .

Way of introduction may be different from place to place or person to person. Introducing yourself in parties or meetings is far different way than introducing yourself in a job interview. You are more comfortable to introduce yourself in parties or meetings as there is an informal way to introduce yourself so, you successfully manage to do so as there is no chances of mistake but when it comes to any job interview then most of us start fumbling with our words especially when we start our introduction in “English”.But it is necessary that one must be really careful and professional in their words and action while introducing oneself in professional interview .

Why does this awkward situation occurs in most of our lives? I may be either due to lack of confidence or due to lack of communication. It could be improved by you yourself. Speak to yourself daily about you, find a proper way to present yourself in front of others, take a note of different things which you would include while presenting yourself. Be concise with your introduction as no one will be interested in listening a story of yourself. Be calculative enough to choose the words which we are using to describe ourselves.Using positive words such as enthusiastic,innovative,creative,self motivated and so on  which would help in enhancing your personality. But do not forget to include your drawbacks also. It is not mandatory to include all your drawbacks but yes it is good to include it with an positive outlook so that your drawback or weakness may not unveil your personality with an negative image. Present yourself with an skillful and expertise image so that all your weakness may get overlapped by strengths.
