It was May 2023.

I gave my UPSC Prelims that day.

After years of hardwork, when I saw the exam paper I realised something.

I am done with this continuous cycle of giving exams which has 0.1% success rate. The moment I came back home, I decided to stop preparing for it.

But I had no backup. I had a degree of computer science, but I didn't want to go into that field.

May to July were the toughest months of my life. I didn't know what to do, my parents wanted me to continue with the UPSC preparations, but my heart said NO.

"Why should I choose something I don't love?", is what I said to myself.

I didn't even have a resume and corporate sector was totally new to me.

Not only I didn't have any experience, I didn't even know which field I want to go into.

I used to cry daily, thinking about what should I do?

But something changed soon after. My friend told me to make a resume and add UPSC preparation as your experience.

I started thinking about all the interests I have.

"Creative."

I realised that I am good at creating things. Creativity is something I possess, and I love.

I thought about it and applied for a Content Designing internship.

I had no idea how this works, but how will you know if you don't take the first step, right?

So yeah, I got into the internship, and later through my hardwork and constant efforts, I got the job too.

It took me one year to reach here. Now when I look back I realise it was a good decision.

So, I would suggest, you follow your heart, everything will align accordingly.

It might take time. Have patience and set your priorities. That's it. That's what worked for me.

Give God a chance to do something for you. Believe.

Now, I am on the edge of my next challenge. : )

Next story will be on it. Hehe.
