Do you believe lives are incomplete without challenges? Explain how?
Yes i believe that lives are incomplete without challenges. Challenges are a parts of life that help us grow improved and understanding our true strength. Without challenges life would be too easy and we would nevered learn how to face difficulties. Just like a rivers needs to flows around rocks to reached the ocean we also need to go through obstacles to reach our goals. When we face challenges we learning lessons about patiences hard working and problem solving. These lessons stays with us for life and makes us better humans beings.
What has been the most significant challenge you have faced?
The most significant challenges i have faced was spending my first times in a hostel. It was during my exams when i hads to stay away from my family for the first times. At first i thoughts it would be easy but as soon as i entered the hostel i felts nervous and uncomfortable. I had nevered stayed away from home so the feeling of beings in a strange places with unknown peoples was very hard for me. The first nights was the toughest. I could not sleeping properly because i kepts thinking abouts my home my parents and the comforts of my own rooms. The noise from other rooms and the strange environments made me feels restless. Even during the day i felts lonely whiles eating or sitting in my room. I wanted to focus on my exams preparations but my mind was fulls of homesick thoughts.
Slowly i realized that i could not lets this sadness controls me. I started talking to others girls in the hostel and made a fews friends. We shared our stories and studied together. This made me feel less alone. I also made a routine for myself waking up early doing a bit of exercise studying for fixed hours and taking short breaks. I stayed in touch with my family through phone calls which gave me emotional comfort. By the end of my hostel stay i learned how to be independents and strong. The experienced taught me that i can adjust to new environments if i have a positives mindset. What seemed likes a scary situation at first became an important lesson in my life.
Share some suggestions that can be helpful while going through different life challenges.
From my hostel challenge i learned some tips that can help anyone facing difficulties. First accept the situation instead of running away from it. When you accept reality you can think of solutions. Second make a daily plan or routine so your mind stays busy and focused. Third try to connect with people around you; friends can make a hard situation easier. Fourth stay connected to your loved ones for emotional support. Lastly always reminds yourself that challenges are temporary and will pass with times. Challenges are not punishments they are opportunities to grows. My first hostel experienced was not easy but it shaped me into a more confidents and adaptable person. Now i know thats no matter where life takes me I can adjusts and make the best of the situations. Life without challenges may be comfortables but it wills not be exciting or meaningful. It is throughs facing challenges that we discovered our true potential.
