What is your biggest weakness?
None of us are perfect. Most of us has too many drawbacks in our lives. But it gets worsened only when we are compared with others. So never look back, just move on with the super qualities you have in life. Because what others don't have, you might have and that's a real blessing.
The struggle in speaking out where ever necessary is one of my biggest weakness. It is like accepting what others have to say. I try to change myself but unfortunately I land up in square one. Due to which I happen to go through issues, Iam not pleased with.
At times I take courage to present whatever is in my mind. But when It comes to speak out, I cannot. This was worse during my yesteryears. Looking back, I feel I have lost some priorities, that I deserve.
I still remember how I stumbled when I was given the mike and stage by the Principal, Chairman and Director of our school, to speak a few words after being honoured a Decadian award. Though I prepared the speech, the beginning was bad, but by Almighty's grace the continuation of the speech went on smoothly. Thanks to the Toast Masters session held weekly in our school.
To be honest, I envy those bold people who retreat when they are being treated like a scapegoat. Most often I wish I was one among them. Often, I felt it has something to do with my upbrinong.
My Dad had a tough childhood and struggled a lot to get into a reputed position, so he was determined to give us the best. Me and my siblings are the luckiest to have such a wonderful father as we were admitted in the best school and given the best education, but if you see the flip side, there were too many limitations and most often we used to hear more of 'No' rather than 'yes'. This has only suppressed our courage to go forward to a great extent.
Another interesting weakness of mine is pleasing myself. It is easy to please others, but when it comes to pleasing yourself, its definitely an unbelievable task. When you smile it doesn't mean you are happy, its because I am not able to express my needs in that surroundings and is forced to listen to what others say and forcibly, put a smile on my face with no meaning.
Our weakness sometimes prove to be our strength. Because at times my silence has proved to be my strength, because I am not dragged in where unnecessary talks are involved, later resulting in a conflict. So let us consider our weakness as a blessing and move forward.
