I had to put this done
because, I sat down after I have submitted my work. I was just reflecting on
the whole thing when I picked the copy of the research I did. I said, if not
because it was a school requirement for our graduation, one could have quit
this research or if there was to be an alternative am sure many would have gone
for it. As I was still reflecting this trucked me. (am sure this is what people
pass through in life when they are taking a bold step and they quit on the
way). Yeah majority of us would want to make things happen, things that has
never been done before, but discouragement, fear of losing, financial
constraints has held us back or make us drop out but listen….
Sometimes the road we
are passing through might seem so difficult but don’t worry it’s only making
you stronger because you learn what others have not learnt and you outsmart
then on the runway. Look at this, so many corrections
on my research work has made me to know how to surf on internet, how to do
proper literature review, how to use sources for my work and when to recognize
them. others might not know much of what I know or might even know more than I
do but we are all learning. I am learning…
It might seem so rough
and stable but it will soon come to any end…
when majority of my course mates and classmates are on their questionnaires I
was on my chapter two, as in my first attempt of my chapter two, some even
scare me that I might not even graduate cos my research work will delay me. But
at that moment, it seems am a little behind, I knew I will get there. When the
deadline approached, everyone is almost finishing up but I was still doing my
work. I was not even close to the finishing line. YET I completed.
It doesn’t matter what
pain and cost you put in today, what matters is what investment you are making
and what you will reap out of it.
I sit behind my research work and I smile that this little oluchi of 1980’s can
write book…lol, it just the beginning.
Life is not so easy,
but if you want to get the best, you must work for it and earn it…I can boast that
this is my sweat, no one helped me. I did it myself, if I get an A or a B, I
know yes this is where my capabilities stands then I can create room for
improvement.
But it doesn’t matter
if you are best of all in this race, what matters is how well you have put in,
how well you have learnt and how well you will improve upon…
During those moments of
my research work I did the very best of my capabilities and it get rejected by
my supervisor. I sit back I do the corrections and I say wow!!! I didn’t know
that I can do it better…don’t be afraid of being rejected, it is the
only way you can do your best.
