Weakness Story
Your Weakness Should be your Strength
Weakness due to which I faced disappointments in the battle of my life.
Public Speaking
I always have speech defects which turn what I thought was useless. I found myself below the middle line, whenever I want to share my opinions and teachings, I can’t deliver that in the way I practice and design. I’m not just afraid of the public but also afraid of those downy eyes continuously watching me. Therefore, I never tried to speak in the public, I never applied for any debate competitions, never appeared in front of class for any presentations in my middle school.
As the earth revolves and changes its position, humans celebrate their birthdays. I entered the University where presentations have 25 marks. At that time delivered a presentation but couldn’t even maintain eye contact. This isn’t the end; the biggest day of every final year student is their defence day. The day you have to come, deliver, maintain eye contact, answer counter Questions is the challenge which I passed but not in such a good way as I have practiced. Perhaps it doesn’t end there. I’m still working on it. Therefore, I joined Amal academy to overcome the fear of public speaking. From the start of fellowship till today I observe improvement in myself. Hope so before the end of this fellowship I will become a good public speaker, presenter and communicator.
Content writing in English
Language is a road map of culture. As English Landed in Pakistani culture every task, jobs, books, office letters were started issuing in English. Nowadays people try to speak in English instead of Urdu. It’s a great challenge for me to speak, write and convey my point in English. I have the ability to write but fear comes, I can speak in English, but fear pushes me back, I won’t stand in place where people want and receives feedback in English.
Basically, English language fear is the roadmap of my success. I start learning it from the beginning, start imagining, talking with myself, and also start responding to reflection questions. Still I’m facing difficulty in selecting action verbs and vocabularies but will never stop learning it. Whereas, I have started content writing in medium. It’s the start of my journey with Amal, and I will learn and adopt more till the end of this fellowship.
I suppose I could call myself an Overcomer
During the 2nd month of fellowship, I observed change in myself. Therefore, I decide why not to play with our weakness? Let’s convert weakness into strength. I started discovering what I can do best. God gifted me a lot. It’s time to discover it, utilize it in the why which helps me to overcome my weakness. Instead of becoming discourage why not to start learning from beginning.
