Hello, hi, myself Vikrant. You know that I was not active for a long period of time, and I want to share some lessons that I have learned in my last 4 years. I didn’t become a polymath, but I have learned from my life.
Right now, everyone is preparing, completing their degrees with excellent marks, going for regular classes whether online or offline. So whenever you get selected for a job, you will realize so many changes in your life, the sudden changes.
The day I got selected, I experienced a lot of attention toward me. My friends reached out and asked me for a party, my relatives sent congratulations, I used social media more, posted more photos, uploaded more stories, and I felt surrounded by a sense of power and achievement.
In this busy schedule of happiness, I left my home and moved for work. I got my salary, and my friends asked me for small amounts of money, and I gave it to them because, in my mind, I was the powerful person. I started flirting with girls because I didn’t have anything else to do, so chatting and flirting became my habit. After 6 months, I realized that my friend circle was decreasing, and only a few remained in contact. I started calling my friends, but in the end, I got tired of this, and only a few stayed in touch.
When I came on my first leave, I spent a lot on my friends, on parties, on girls, and at the same time, I realized that I had only a few friends.
After 2 years, I understood the value of money because, after getting paid for 12 months, I started saving, stopped giving money to others, and asked for the return of the money I had given out. I started trading without knowledge just to get more money based on suggestions from my friends, and the result was a loss. I stopped investing very soon after a small loss and started saving from my salary. I made new friends and found so many LOL friends, but I always found it difficult to trust 100% on them.
At that time, a big change occurred in my life. I wanted to grow myself. I thought that what I learned was the only thing that could help me grow. I started reading books and preparing for upgradation. With this, I also wanted to build physical strength, so I gave much time to physical fitness. Slowly, studying became my habit, along with daily news analysis and gaining knowledge to improve areas where I was less interested, like general knowledge. I started learning a lot about the world, and with this good change, I also lost something.
I always had a suspicion of people around me. I didn’t trust anyone. I was very kind toward everyone, but now I am only kind to some. I stopped giving more things to friends, started giving importance to family, and lost interest in celebrating birthdays and festivals. I didn’t want to show my life to others, so I stopped updating myself on social media—stopped updating my DP, stopped updating status, and changed my thinking to just wanting to gain knowledge.
I stopped approaching girls, stopped spending more time on calls, and started hating chats. I have learned that right now, there’s nothing lost or wasted in this life, so I have a lot of time to upgrade myself.
In the fourth year, I realized that only you can support yourself. I completed more than 15 self-help books like The Secret, Atomic Habits, The 48 Laws of Power, etc., and read 2 or 3 storybooks.
I understood the importance of knowledge. I distanced myself from my relatives just to study and to get more powerful. I lost my feelings from everywhere and started living only in the present. I started making decisions based only on my mind, just after a bit of thinking.
Only a present joke can make me laugh, and a present sorrow can make me sad, but only for that period of time. I have no past and no future. I have learned to level out my emotions. It was very difficult for me, but I tried. When I was living alone, I was burning inside to contact others, but this lesson made me more powerful and stronger in heart.
In the end, I want to say that in this life, we often waste our time on stupid things, and the biggest distraction is mobile phones. If you can control yourself, you can do anything. Girls, TV, and stupidity—everything that distracts you in life—connect yourself with nature because no one will help you. Nature is always there to help.
