Overcoming obstacles

Life is about progressing not attaining perfection. Let me welcome all my readers to my blog. As I said we all thrive for perfection from the day we get conscience, which is merely not possible. Perfection is not just scoring an “A” grade in your exams or winning a football match but a lot more. I believe having flaws is being human. Like, I can speak to person one on one but I struggle to speak a word in front of a mass. I realized this when I had to present the progress presentation last week. Understanding the complex Java codes is yet another daunting task that I fail to do. At times I have a hard time balancing my ego and expectations and I end up hurting my loved ones. Not able to concentrate on studies is another part which is haunting me from my early days in Islington.

Yes! I have weaknesses and I accept them but what matters is whether I, at least, try to overcome them or not.

Even god helps those who help themselves. So, I plan to help myself. My current module ‘Study Skills for Computing’ will help me overcome my communication- problem. We will be getting ample of practice giving presentations and writing reports. Moreover I am also going through books like The Skills for Success (Cottrell, 2003) which is helping me improve. Last week, I had been on a discussion on improving concentration. It gave me tips and tricks which can be handy. I have also been reading books like Objects First with Java (Barnes, 2012) and tutorials from docs.oracle.com. After a few weeks of jotting the codes and the tutorials, everything has started to make sense. There is something to learn from everything and everyone. To sum up, being better tomorrow than what I am today is what I strive for.
