“Sab apne hisaab se nahi hota hai, patience rakhna padta hai.” That’s what a friend told me recently.
But if you know me, you know that I’m ziddi. I want things now. I’ve always been the kind of person who says, “Mere hisaab se kaise nahi hoga? Me karungi! Koi help nahi kare toh jane do, me hu na?” As long as I’m trying, I’m at peace.
And in that moment, I realised something deeper how often society kills our fire to dream big. We’re constantly told to compromise, to adjust, to understand. But my question is why?
If I can’t afford something today, I’ll work until I can tomorrow. But I’m not going to lower my expectations from myself. I’m not going to dim my dreams just to make others comfortable.
People say adjust in relationships, settle in life. But I’d rather stay alone than fit into the wrong place. Because I have myself, and that’s enough.
So the next time someone tells you, “Adjust kar lo, compromise kar lo,” Look them in the eye and say “No. I won’t. It’s my life and I’ll live it on my terms.”
