This age, people are all letting their guts out. instead of running away, most of them choose to chase it up. Why? I bet all of you have a lot of correct answers to answer my question. Yes, all we want is to live happily and have a prosperous life. Most of us reach for "diamonds" and try everything we could to not falling down to the black hole called the "failure" and be in there for the rest of our lives.
If what you gonna say is no different with what i've just stated above, then believe me, you have to be ready to COMPETE with anyone no matter what happens. I'm gonna say that this age (again), GPA scores in college (or IPK in indonesian....in case you don't get what i'm saying) is not that important and i'm not just briefly saying this. My dad has also told me the same (with his unimaginable number of experiences in college and also in his work life), his GPA scores were just "okay" (i mean that my grandolds had not given a lot of appreciations to my father back then) (lol sorry dad) (hehe i'm just retelling your story) (in case you read my blog right now) . But what i'm saying is don't get too deeply into your scores, because what matters is your action to move out and look for opportunities. Find competitions, let yourself compete. And more important: find your passion, or at least what you good at, what action suits you best. Personal Branding is what people say.
A lot of people are afraid of failure. But for me, failing is the process of growing up, i learn from my failures, and (in case you're asking) i haven't just copied that words from random sites in google believe me those words have just come out all of a sudden. Never get tired of trying, you'll win eventually.
"what if: i've been trying like a zillion times and all i get were all failures and then i start to feel tired and nervous for giving another try after trying for those zillion times?" (if someone asks that question and you get a little dizzy after hearing that train-a-like question)
All i can say is, nothing to lose. I've always said the "nothing to lose" word before i compete in every competition. But actually i often lose. For the record, i've only won twice in two competitions (fyi i won second place and fourth place without getting any first places), and in addition, failed three times in three competitions. But my father keeps saying this to me "When you try something, you'll get something. And that is part of growing up. Winning is just a bonus".
(actually the reason why i write this post is because i'm in the middle of a competition week right now and i don't know what to expect. besides, nothing to lose after all)
