Have You Ever Fail?

In this article, i’ll talking about FAILURE because if i talk about SUCCESS, maybe i’m not the right person since i haven’t reached that level yet. So at this time, i’ll tell a story about the failure or the someone’s journey to achieve success that might inspire you enough to be more enthusiastic!

Maybe there is one of you who feels “Why do i always fail?” or ”I’ve tried my best but why haven’t got the result yet?” or “Why did i constantly stuck in this point and still not move on?” or “When am i being a successful person?” and other questions that stay in your mind. It could be because you haven’t got any job yet, being mad with college stuff, feels so doubt of your business, or anything else.

We definitely know that no one have perfect life like a fairy tale. No one get 100% just like what we want. There must be so many obstacles like drenched by the rain, hit by the storm, or maybe deluged by the flood. For the same intention, every person has their own way.

I was read an incredible book “Catatan Hati di Setiap Sujudku” in chapter “Dalam Sukar, Ada yang Ingin Dikatakannya” written by Anisa. That book told that there is a woman who is looking for a job. There are lot of test that she was followed, but none were accepted. She kept pray immutably until then she got a job. Long story short, she has resigned twice from her job. The first one because her salary was relatively low and the job was very tight of time. And the second one, the salary was four points higher from the previous one, the tasks were very heavy until she dropped and depressed tho. Thus, at the end, she chose to quit from that company.

As a normal people, perhaps we might think “What is wrong with me? Every time i got a job, it feels like out of my expectation, like very not appropriate.” And of course, maybe it also felt by lot of people out there. Then, she just prayed a lot and self-reflected, and started to find what is the truly plan of Allah?

‘Til one time, she found a prestigious job but she had to compete with bachelor’s degree while she’s only high school graduate. At this point, she didn’t pray to be accepted again, but rather entrusted whatever the result because she believed that Allah is the only one that set every single path of her life. Unexpetedly, she was accepted in that company eventhough, at the beginning, she felt like it’s impossible. After long time, she began to understand what is purpose of Allah’s plan. Evidently, in this company, she found her true love, the man who is currently being her husband.

What do you think? Is it a beautiful story? Is it happy ending? But look at the way that she went through! Is it smooth? Is it without obstacles? Of course not. She through so many obstacles and challenges even the doubt to get this point. What i admire so much form her, she never give up and always pray immutably. It’s enough for us to try as much as possible and leave everything to Allah, the truly one, because Allah is the only one who control our path of life. Don’t even gripe just a little bit of what we want that we haven’t yet because, perhaps, Allah will provide us something more beautiful than we ever imagine! Don’t lose hope! Just enjoy every process and be grateful of what we have.
