In a city where life was too busy, I was living in the hustle and bustle of urban life. From a humble beginning, I deeply desired to become a popular man whose work would stand as a testimony to my vision. I desired to become a successful man. So that I may fulfill my dreams. My dreams were high because we live in a big city. We have many challenges. We have to face tough competition.

So my dreams were high and tall, like the towering skyscrapers that graced the city's skyline. Nevertheless, my path was not without obstacles. I thought that I would easily achieve my dreams because my academic record was exceptional. My IQ level was excellent. I thought that I would easily achieve my goals and objectives. But this journey to become a successful man was not as easy as I thought.

I faced many challenges and failures. I made many efforts. I did every task that I could do. I did business, but I could not get the desired result. At the same time, Corona disease spread all around the world, so my business failed due to this severe situation. Sometimes bad luck follows us and catches us. After this, I tried to get a job, but those days were difficult for every industry, so I could not get any jobs. It seemed that all my path are closed. When I saw the rich people I feel sadness.

I always cursed my luck. I was always in continuous negative thoughts .but meanwhile I did many attempts but those my attempts were in vein.MY faith in bad luck were becoming strong and strong. I were considering that all my failures and bad conditions were due to bad luck. Those days were the worst days. My basic needs have become difficult to meet. But I had a consistent determination—a determination that refused to be influenced by adversity. I realized that talent or luck does not mean success but is a manifestation of one's inner strength and resilience. With this belief firmly planted in my heart, I started to investigate how to develop a mindset for success.

I tried to take guidance from teachers and read books, I though to attend seminars , and immersed myself in the company of those who had great life experiences, and they have faced the same challenges in their lives too. Through their guidance, I gained invaluable tips and experience and forced myself to learn the art of persistence behavior, and I should learn how to eradicate my feeling of uncertainty with grace and determination. But perhaps my greatest asset was my consistent positivity. In the face of adversity, I choose to see opportunities for growth and self-discovery rather than insurmountable obstacles.

I practiced gratitude daily, acknowledging the blessings that graced my life and finding comfort in the simple joys that came every day. As my journey unfolded, my resilience and determination began to pay off. Doors that once seemed firmly closed are now open before me, opening avenues of success that I had never imagined. Opportunities presented themselves in abundance, and my dreams slowly began to take shape, getting closer to fulfillment with each passing day. Yet, amidst the accolades and successes, I remained grounded. I realized that true success lies not in external validation but in the deep change that took place within me.

I had become a beacon of inspiration to others, living proof of the power of perseverance and the indomitable human spirit. In the end, when I look out over the city's skyline, I come to know that its greatest masterpiece was not the steel and glass structure but the unchangeable positivity and resilience that guided me through the darkest of times. I learned from my mistake that we are all made up of positive and negative thoughts. It is up to us what path we will choose—the path of hope and struggle or the path of disappointment
