It is common that we whine over the lack of resources, guidance, mentoring and other things in our society. But one thing to consider is, do we imagine these hurdles more than what actually their size is? When I passed secondary school certificate with second position in my school, I enrolled in a renowned college. It was there when I met people who have secured positions in overall central examination board nationwide. I told myself, "man the teachers are the same, the building is same, exposure and resources are same, what is that they can get position on national level and you do not". I did not get any gold or silver medal but promised myself to point out my shortcomings first rather than to cry over the lack of resources or something. The place where I am teaching, I always tell them, to do wonders, no matter what they have got and what they did not get.
