Trust No One, But Yourself: The Power of Believing
20.59.00
The
way you turn into a new life, new days, new time, there are always changes. It
happens naturally and nothing can beat it. Your life being supposed to push up
by one thing: someone who believe. Someone who believe in order to pushing you,
support you, and of course believe about your ability. You came with another
bullshit lesson on internet or life-suck moment because you give up on something
or there was someone who let you down. It might affect you permanently or if
you are lucky enough, it happen temporarily. Suddenly, an angel is coming to
you with no magic stick in hands nor wings on her back. He just come to you as
a human to erase your problem, your sadness even your bad habits. Cool, eh?
I
am trying to retell a story behind the successes of an Indonesian professional
news anchor: Marissa Anita. She told us about her limited skill in school, she
felt like a numb and stupidest student even she raised her transcripts with last
ranks predicate in classes. She was the girl with no interested with school and
couldn’t get any subject her teacher telling, until a best friend of her
motivate and teach her with patient. Her best friend told a story: her best
friend’s father was a poor person, but because he always eat books, he had his
daughter to Michael Jackson’s concert in Singapore. One thing I know, her best
friend believe that ‘M’–call name of Marissa, could learning well and raise a
good grade. Since that, M has motivated and fixed her study until she became
one of best graduates in colleges. Yup! Both bachelor and master degree! Here are
her track records: Marissa Anita
Honestly,
somehow her story has similar part to mine. I was a premature school girl in
town and my parents said, I kept in silent when the headmaster in elementary school
interviewed me. I was a 4 years young girl at that time and it was abnormal age
for an elementary school student but I survived it anyway. I grew up in school
as a member of younger student team or even the youngest. I put no interest on
study nor its subjects, just few things like meet people, play with friends,
drawing, counting, gymnastic, math, art class, karate, etc. So same on my
junior high school’s activity. I followed some extracurricular: dance in my
first grade, vocal in the second grade and MTQ in my third grade. And my high
school life, I took more than one extracurricular: Islamic spiritual, Junior
Red Cross and scout, but I ended my high school with only scout organization for
three years and a lot of shitty love life. LOL. I satisfied and tired at once
about my experiences in schools and it made me didn’t want to join any
organization anymore in the college at first but I stilllllll trapped in
theater organization in my campus and an Islamic student association also
volunteering some education organization (the last one is my own choice fyi!). It
has filtered by rejecting an offer by others organization. Tsk tsk tsk. Now, I
realize that I have random interests in life. I tried many things so far and
still counting—I AM SAD. I cannot keep calming my curiosities and domesticate
my interests. It is grow up every day and getting bigger and bigger. I saw many
motivated words and stories and sooooo many inspiring people in the world. Those supplements
make me believe on my own self, because I know myself, I have strong willpower
on something I really want even it quite egoistic. I am a detail also a free
person. This is a biggest NO when you think that I am promoting myself on this
post. I tell you guys, you have to know yourself as early as possible. This is
my turn. Success people know well themselves so they will do anything by their
ability. Believing your own self because there are a lot of inspiring people
who will push you up. One of mine is M. Maybe I will tell you about another
inspiring person for me next time. I have a lot of stocks. Be ready to be
influenced!
So,
I may blame myself for ‘I am old already and I cannot do anything, I may not
do anything—feeling’ when I am just turned into 21 years young girl and still
many things to do. I feel like I have so much time left with useless
things. You don’t belong to this. Don’t give up if no one believe in you. You
have yourself as a loyal supporter, your own believer. At the end, trust no
one, but yourself.
