Good Night, my friends, wherever you are, warm greetings to all of you, I hope you are always in good health and doing well in carrying out your daily routines.
On this occasion I am @rahmatandesti again greeting you in the featured contest held by the Hive Learners community. This contest is great for training us in writing because here we can share stories, experiences and opinions on a problem according to the theme given in each edition. In this second edition, in week 50, we will tell you about something that can be a life experience for each of us. This experience relates to opportunities that we have missed but we get a second chance and it becomes the best achievement in our life. In living life, there must be a lot of opportunities that we may unknowingly or consciously miss or not be able to achieve, but there will always be other opportunities that we can take, all of which are always in our respective life stories.
Many people say that opportunity will not come twice, but for me that is a little wrong because the opportunity we miss may not be a good destiny for us because everyone must have another opportunity, even though it is different, but the opportunity could be much better. we deserve, therefore, there is no need to mourn the opportunities that we have just passed because they were not destined for us. For me destiny is real because something that is not destined for us even though we try our best we will not get it but something that is destined for us we will definitely get even with very little effort. Therefore, I don't need to feel jealous of other people's achievements because it was destined for them, even though we have the same chance to get it, it's impossible for us to get it because it's not our destiny.
I myself had an interesting experience regarding opportunities that I had missed in the past, but fate gave me other opportunities that made me more comfortable in living them. This incident happened after I finished my studies, which was a little later than normal, but it was not a big problem, the problem was after I finished college. At that time I only worked at night, about 3 hours per night. I have been doing this job for a long time when I was still in college because the work was only at night and not for long so it didn't interfere with the course I was currently in. I worked at that time of my own volition to just add to my pocket money while filling my spare time which sometimes I just like to hang out and sleep. After finishing college I still do the job because I only work nights so I am used to staying up late even though my work is finished I prefer to hang out with my friends before going home so sometimes I forget the time and often stay up late. Even though I was late the next day, I didn't have to worry because my studies were over and I also didn't have anything to do in the morning and afternoon, so I was free to do whatever I wanted.
This habit took place a few months after I finished college, so it made my parents worry about my bad habit. so one day my father offered me to work in one of my uncle's shops which was engaged in household furniture because by chance there needed a worker who could be trusted because there was a senior who had been trusted by my uncle there wanted to resign, and I was trusted by my uncle to replace him. but I refused the invitation because in my opinion it was not in accordance with the talents and interests that I had so it would be difficult for me to adapt there. Even though my father had encouraged me to accept the job because this was a great opportunity for me to work because working there would be more secure because my uncle's shop was very big and quite well-known in the area. My father also persuaded me to try it first but I still wasn't interested in trying it. I used to visit the shop several times, so I already knew a little about his work, so naturally I refused my father's invitation. after failing to persuade me then my father told me to find a decent job, don't just laze around at home, it will become a bad habit for me, so my father said. From my father's words, I began to wake up and think about my way of life. If I don't try to change it now I might regret it. My life at that time was like a person who had no direction in life and tended to be lazy. I myself felt afraid of what my future would be like.
From my father's advice at that time, I felt aware of the future that I had to live because the life I lived was still very long, of course I had to start changing myself from now on. A few weeks later as I was sitting with my friend as usual after work. One of my close friends asked me to start a business, this was not something out of the blue because my friend had wanted to open a business for a long time but had not been able to do so due to many factors so at that time he asked me to start a joint business that was engaged in photographer services. Office Stationery store. I was a little interested in my friend's invitation because doing business in that field was a skill that I was pursuing from my job, but at first I was hesitant because I didn't have the capital to start the business, but my friend said not to worry because the capital for both of them would automatically be lighter and more affordable for me. we. The initial plan was that we would open a business with moderate capital first, as time went on we would increase the capital from sales every day, the most important thing was that we had to be able to build the business first.
This is a great opportunity for me and my friend because by starting a new business we can be more responsible and hone our skills in areas we are both interested in. Working according to our interests and talents is really very enjoyable because we will definitely enjoy every job that is of our interest and will not feel burdened in the least. My friends and I are sure that the business we are going to build will be successful because we believe in the abilities that we have today, even though we are not professionals, we have been able to master several fields of work in this business.
For now, the business that we have opened together has been running for almost 5 months and has good prospects, which can be seen from sales every day and the number of customers that continues to grow. We are very grateful because we were able to start this business so well, even though we faced many obstacles and obstacles, we were able to continue to survive and continue to try our best for the business that we are in. We must be sure of ourselves and believe in the choices we have made when we have faith in our hearts, everything we choose feels so good when we live it. Continue to believe in a better future.
That's a short story that I can share with all my friends, I hope it can entertain you. Sorry if there are mistakes in my writing above, Thank you very much for your visit, I hope we all get happiness from every choice of opportunity we take in this life , keep fighting for a better life.
