I'm doing something that gives me pleasure: Two inspiring stories

Life is awesome when what we do for earning gives us pleasure as well.. But life is not this awesome for everyone in this world.. We are happy in Steemit, aren't we?.. We often have to withstand what life offers us and it is mostly when we don't have confidence or that we have the fear the opportunity will miss out and that never come back..

Should we do whatever comes in our way forgetting what actually was our goal?

When we have the confidence that even if the opportunity in which we are not interested is missed, we're gonna rock in what we love to do; but we are gonna grab it just because we don't have any other options or feeling that the world is full of talents and someone might replace us. Searching for a better work may lead to even worse?

Shouldn't we do something that gives pleasure even if they don't have any quality jobs for us?

All we need is faith and just faith in ourself. If you have the believe in yourself nothing can undermine you.. Trust in your heart just for one time, and give your 100℅( One can give his 100%only if he loves what he does).. If we don't take risks, life is not fun; Taking risks makes us realize the value of success. . I sometimes listen to Sandeep Maheswari, a popular Motivational Speaker, Founder and CEO of imagesbaazar.com and I was very motivated by his sessions to do something that I like or to be involved only in something that gives me pleasure.. He owns a website where he sells images, and is a very happy person. He loves his work, and maybe this is the main reason behind his being a successful entrepreneur.

I'm seemed to be motivated badly?

Yes, I was really motivated by these two youths from my state.
Amlan Jyoti Khanikar
Roshan Sharma

Amlan , 17 years old youth is an entrepreneur and Motivational Speaker from my state Assam, has been selected for prestigious summer program "Leangap" which will help him develop his further business ideas in Boston, USA. By this, Amlan has become the first from North Eastern India to be selected for this program.
About three months ago, Amlan along with his partner started working in a the then small start-up called GT tech and made a revenue of ₹5 lakhs per month.

Here's what Amlan says about his work:

Given that I was just in school at that time and didn’t have enough money to pay for labour, I worked on constructing the Ghost House along with my friends. Everyone loved the project and the small ghost house that we made. This inspired me to actually convert this small project of mine into a Business Plan.
During Durga Puja in the same year, I got my ghost house displayed in the town hall for 3 days. I put an entry ticket of INR 20 and it turned into a huge success. I made a clear profit of INR 17,000 and was ecstatic that all my hard work payed off.

The bug of entrepreneurship bit me
I thought of re-investing the money elsewhere, rather than splurging on luxury. I searched and contacted clothing companies in Jaipur and invested the whole amount in bringing stocks of clothes to my hometown. I sold my stock there and made a loss of INR 7,000. This loss was very depressing and I felt like I had lost something very integral to me. I thought of stopping all the business and getting back to my regular schedule.
But I decided to get another stock of clothing worth INR 25,000 from the same dealer and this time I made a net profit of INR 10,000 which boosted my confidence and I started investing my money and increasing it with regular profits.

Roshan is my neighbour cum Brother.. His aim was to represent India in football or to play for India. But there were many tough times for him as his family didn't recognize his talent at first and was told to better concentrate in preparation for JEE (Engineering Entrance exam) .

And it is somewhere relevant for the parents to act like this as in India, unfortunately football has not gained that much popularity as Sports like Cricket do.. (Perhaps,It is a good news for India that Indian National Football teem has entered in the Top 100 FIFA ranking). So, it is a bit challenging for him to choose football as for earning. And that's what tensed his parents.
But When your talent speaks more than anything, when you are best in your work nothing can stop you.. So was the case with Roshan.. He went on to stand on 19th position (All India Rank) in Indian youth football team and right now he is selected for free coaching classes at Gwalior, India for. It is his strong determination, confidence that I have faith in that one day he will be in the Indian football team and shine all over the world..His idol is Christiano Ronaldo.. I hope he maintains his uniqueness.

This is similar to what happened to me! As a child my mom gave me cookies to sell. It was incredible successful! Imagine a 10 year old not having to ask for money to his parents! After that entrepreneurship is always with me

Aww.. When you see tough times at this early stage, You're prepared for any situation in the future.
