|| Treating joy and sorrow, gain and loss, with the same calm spirit. I'm sharing my journey openly because I believe true growth happens when we build ourselves in the open. In 2017, I lost my arm in a devastating road accident. For 18 long hours, I was on my deathbed, unsure of what the future held. In that darkness, at Apollo Delhi, a stranger made me laugh, capturing a moment of light that still hangs as a polaroid on their fridge. In 2018, I turned that pain into determination, cleared JEE, and joined NIT Jalandhar. By 2021, I thought I'd found stability with an on-campus placement, only to discover the company was a fraud. The CEO’s constant shouting pushed me to quit in just 20 days. Returning to college, I found no more on-campus opportunities and was devastated. But I refused to give up. Despite fierce competition in off-campus job hunting, I secured a role at Microsoft as a CSA. In Mumbai, I faced another heartbreak when my girlfriend of four years cheated on me. My mental health spiraled, and poor eating habits landed me in the hospital multiple times. Just as I began to recover, I faced yet another trial: an incident that led to police harassment and two days in custody. Last year, I chose to leave Microsoft, not because I had to, but because I wanted more. I cleared CAT just to get rejected from the interviews. I see life as a video game, and I’m determined to play it on my own terms, always pushing for the next challenge. Now, I’m on a relentless journey to carve out a future in Web3 Business Development. Through all these ups and downs, I’ve learned that resilience isn’t just about surviving; it’s about thriving and finding light even in the darkest moments. If all of this couldn’t break me, then nothing will! What’s your story of resilience? I’d love to hear it. 💪✨
