when did you realise yourself?

Given the environment where I grew up, I learned to be a man of one's self since my elementary days. I don't want to be a burden to my parents. It's hard, I've gone through harsh times especially in my studies but in all that I did not seek help from anyone. No man is an island, yes but the challenge to be an island pretty much makes or breaks you. In my case, It made me a better and tougher person.

I realized what I want when I was in 10 or 20.I realized that all I wanted was to work in a creative industry.specifically in culinary and fashion.I wanted to work in an industry that makes me feel like I am creating something worthwhile.I cannot shift my course anymore,so I decided to continue it,against my will.

Like you i used to be very quite in class never speak to anyone, never participate in any of school curricular. I used to be shy in everything. I don't even have dare to look up to anyone. When i walk my head always bow down little bit and walk. I knew that i'm talented in few things but due to my shyness i was never able to explore. I still remember when some of my fren force me to participate in drawing and singing competition. Somehow i manage to participate and luckily i stood for the first price in both. This was the first time i experience and this makes me somehow....kind of positivity in me. I went for college but still nothing really change me. Later i join in one institution for communication course. I did for diploma there and this help me alot to come out from my shyness. Here i learn alot and start more interacting to people. When i finished my studies i join in call centre for few months. I should say this was the best place for me to explore my remaining weaknesses. Here all the train was so amazing. They help me alot to overcome completely from shyness. During training we went all different types of training like group discussion, presentation, skid presentation, extompore speech, voice and accent etc. Each member are force to do and more over all the trainers are aware that i'm not that smart so they give me more chances and thats how i completely overcome from my shyness. Now i'm working in a good company and no doubts i performed well in everything and i'm happy to work with my company. Well, coming to your point i realize myself after college. Unless oneself take initiative one can't improve in anything.

Hi my friend. From my small ages till even now, I just love to speak infront of the public my friend. I just feel soo amazed seeing people over the stage speaking out soo loudly and lavishingly beautifully. Thus I even regerse in my home speaking. While speaking in my home it come soo beautifully. But when I get over the stage, oh my god! Its hell over their. My arms start to shiver, I feel my legs following my arms and my mouth striking against me seeing the crowd infront. As I entered the college, I didnt get any improvement until I had a friend who started to tease me in the way I used to speak. I use the phrase "That is" many times while I speak. That friend of mine tease me soo much that one day I even fought for embarasing me while on the stage. From that I tried still more hard. Still I'm not a very good speaker, but sure I'm better than before my friend. I just feel to say that, the hard words from our friends sure have an impact in our future my friend.
