Few people has to just wish and it's done and there are other few who doesn't even wish but still they are blessed with best and I am one of those other few who has has to struggle hard and every wish seems impossible. I am Maya just an ordinary girl with an extraordinary dream of becoming a doctor, let me correct it I want to be well known established doctor. I grew up with emotionally unavailable parents who were always involved in domestic violence and no time for us, we are four siblings. In school I had no friends hardly one or two. My school teachers used to have just one saying that " why your kid always looks sad, exhausted and least involved in group activities and her face always tells she is least interested in any activities" to my parents in parents teachers meeting,fun part is they used to rarely attend those meetings and after coming back home instead of thinking why I am like this they used to compare me with other kids. Days passed and years passed,I had a turning point in my life when I met one those people who shape our lives and I met him in high school he was my maths teacher and I was not a maths lover because no one put efforts to make maths beautiful everyone are just back of some boring methods to solve it, neither at school nor at home people try to make it an exciting subject. But this guy, slowly he sparked the love for maths in me. It started with small insult as I was bad in it. That's where I started to put more efforts towards it by understanding the concepts all by myself as my overprotective parents never let us for coaching overthinking of safety and one more thing is we were in outskirts, so difficult access to all such facilities,whereas rest of my classmates were busy in taking coaching for it but I stood alone and strived hard and in few months I was so good at it and I even scored full marks in it and I became one of those elite students and favourite of teachers. Best part of school life was I was so good in athletics and enjoyed it. Years passed but my home condition didn't change and I had no guidance for pursuing my lifetime ambition. I joined engineering like one of those sheeps and dropped out, I joined one more course again dropped out for which I had travelled to another city for me it was a huge step as our overprotective parents never let us travel to any place not even to my granny's place they used to come and visit us. That's where my dream got wings I met a girl who had same ambition like me so I discussed with her and got a guidance and proper resources list, what to study and what to not and how to study. Luckily I got my own mobile at the age of 20, I can't even express my happiness through words, I used internet for motivation and concepts sitting at home I started to prepare, but my kind and supportive parents started to demotivate me saying that I have dropped out twice and I am going nowhere. At one point of time I felt I am a looser and good for nothing and even suffered psychologically and they were there for me so much that, I hardly got time for preparation as I had to help them in household chores as I had become a burden and if I had to study in night lights were turned off. Days passed and I realised that if I can't fight for my dream then who else will? If I can't push my self further then who else will? I realised that if I want it, I have to go against the world and fight for it and snatch it after all we live once, so I had to fight for it. I failed twice but I kept on pushing myself again and again. Today I am proud to introduce myself as Dr. Maya and yes my parents are also proud to introduce me to their friends and relatives and showcase me as a trophy infront of everyone. And yes I was an underdog for whom becoming a doctor was impossible at first but today I sleep with happiness and I am proud of myself and deal with all those complicated situations of life with a smile and with a mindset that it might take time but it's not an impossible thing. But life is all of surprises right, I joined medical school after such a long, about to losing battle which I had won all by myself. After reaching medical school I realised my other fellows had scored much better than me to reach there and yes they too noticed that I have not done so good to reach there and yes the surprises started to explode again in my life. They started to mock at me without knowing that what and all I have gone through in my life and how much it was hard for me to reach there and all those had taken coaching to reach there obviously they were spoon fed, but I wasn't ,I achieved it by myself I wasn't ashamed of it, but somewhere in corner of my heart I had this one thought of inferiority complex but even knew the truth that if those people had just been in my shoes for one day they would have left the dream and would have chosen some other path other than striving hard like me. Life is so unpredictable. But I didn't lose hope I worked hard everyday, when they used to enjoy I used to study standard books but those people used to study some other books which was a shortcut to clear exam. There is a saying that crows will try to distract eagle in sky by biting it's neck similarly these people mocked at me that I would fail in exam by studying standard books which are difficult. But I did what an eagle does, it won't fight with crow instead it would fly so high which is not possible for crows ,I doubled my efforts and I cleared all my exams at first attempt with better score and they like crows fell down not able to clear exam. So efforts does matter and I do believe in myself and we have to keep trying unless we succeed. In this world nothing is impossible unless you try to think it's possible ignoring all those negative things around you and walk straight forward towards goal,take rest when tired but don't quit... it's possible to achieve what you dream of.... it's me Dr.Maya
