They were right to feel afraid. Well of course, in order to succeed we need courage, but other things than courage, we need to be smart. Some people might prevails with quitting from whatever they are doing right now and submitting to something they are more interested in but most of the people doesn't have the luxury to do that. In a book written by Rolf Dobelli, he wrote about "Survivorship Bias". The key to be successful with whatever you do is through your own research. Human always afraid with whatever we don't understand that's why we need to fortify ourselves with knowledge. In your case, your friends might not understand how you have the courage, to stand where you're right now. Experiences taught us a lot and experience also is a form of knowledge. I'm a religious person, I believe whatever happen to us were meant to be because God believes that we can endure it through, that's why he tested us, but for some people, what we've been through might be too much for them. That's why sometimes, I heard a quote, every other's person life is a fairy tale. You can't live my life the same way I can't live yours.
Good articles and keep on producing more. Kudos.
Hi @n4zriofficial, thank you very much for sharing your time and opinion with me.
The "Survivorship Bias" is very true for all of us. Each of us has a different roads to success and humans discover by experimenting, trials and errors. But the fundamental difference is, some took action while some hope.
I also believe, all events happen for us to make us grow stronger and better :)
I really like what you wrote "You can't live my life the same way I can't live yours".
All the things you've gone through are meant for you for a reason :)
Thank you Nazri!
