When everyone dares not to take the responsibility out of their ability, I was there to accept the challenge, thinking I could with hard work and dedication, but I was completely wrong and got to face the backlash pretty badly, and I am still facing it.
Going against the tide has been a pretty famous quote; it's valid only if you are sure and confident about the decision. For general thumb rules, you shouldn't doubt the mass decision unless you are super confident. I was like that, was super confident with my decision, went against the family, rejected their suggestions even though they had seen the world more than me, but as a Gen Z, we listen to none, good at playing with fire. So I had chosen to go wild with my decision, thinking, “I will face whatever comes.” Now things are much more horrible to face than I had anticipated.
So, it sparked two years back, I was on my own, stepped into something that should be done with hundreds of thoughts, with the help of family, and all. I was wild enough to do it all alone, without anyone. That's what the mistake is: I was too unfamiliar with how real life is. So yeah, I wish I hadn't gone against my family values and ethics, had not taken a few decisions on my own, carried away by emotion and lack of vision, I would have been in a better situation mentally, physically, and economically as well.
Things kept going, the curve declining little by little. I, who used to wake up at 11 in the morning, now wake up at 7 am. I never boarded local transportation. Now it's my daily medium, who was always towards freedom, now stuck in a corporate environment, where none ever dared to point fingers at me. Now I hear people saying so many things. I can feel my blood boiling, ready to burst out, but still, the skin is too fat and cold to absorb now, what to do? I got helpless with so much stuff that was miscalculated due to one decision.
If that hadn't happened, I might have still lived comfortably, walked with my dignity and respect, not accountable to anyone, not to worry about so many things throughout the whole month, nor would I have listened to anyone's harsh talk. I would have been the me who was fearless, a man of words, self-sufficient, and stable mentally, physically, and economically.
So yeah, one decision going against your family can leave you in such deep shits that it would be like a trauma for you, affecting your life from top to bottom, making things upside down.
Sometimes you make bad decisions that complicate everything and make life worse. This story reminded me of bad decisions my grandfather made, and I learned from them. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Learning from such terrible circumstances is the best we can take out of it. I just pray and hope you can practise on the learning outcome and don't fall for such a bad decision.
Welcome!
So be it!🤗

Your honesty here is powerful. It’s true—sometimes one decision can change everything, and the weight of it stays with us. But I believe even hard experiences shape us into stronger versions of ourselves. Keep holding on, better days will come 🙏✨
