There was a lady who had achieved the key to everything; except one! She also had the key to success which led her to be a successful business person and who do you think that lady was ? It was me!
I just felt like writing my own life story, so I did it! Just like any other day, I went to my office and got involved in a meeting which was pre-arranged. I actually work in a cartoon based company. In the meeting, we were discussing, “What kind of cartoon would the kids like?” Some of the employees started talking about their child’s dreams while some talked about their own. At that time an employee asked me “What is your dream?” and the other employees added, “Yes ,what is it?” There is no way that being successful in the business was my only dream and since I didn’t know what to say, I hesitantly replied it was to be an actor because when I was a kid most of my friends said that their dream was to be an actor. You might also be thinking right now “Why is an employee talking so casually to their boss?” It is because I thought that if we would talk casually, the employees might open up a bit more and I was right they did open up to me and because of that we made great progress in our company.
Anyway, let's get back to where we left. So after I replied to them, we decided the kind of cartoon the kids would like the most and ended the meeting. I went home as usual and started to do my work and tried to focus but the question which my employee asked me struck my mind just like the alarm goes off every time the clock strikes the next hour. So I stopped working for a while and thought about what my true dream was? I couldn't think of anything about my dream. I gave up and went to sleep. Next day, I went to the office and did my work but I couldn’t get the question out of my head. I then had no choice but to take a vacation from my office and find the key to my true dream. In my vacation, I did a lot of things, I travelled to different places and I also wrote a book that suddenly got famous. Then when I saw someone reading my book and enjoying it, I found myself almost exploding with happiness. At that time, I knew that I had found the key to my true dream. It was to write books and many more things. And after that I never stopped writing. When I was back to my office after my long vacation I told my employees what my true dream was! Some of them did ask me, “If my true dream was to write then why did I lie to them when they asked what my dream was?” I simply replied to them by saying “At that time I didn't know what my true dream was so I told you about my friend's dream since I thought that it would be a shame if being a successful person I didn’t know what I really wanted to be?” It would also be strange when I didn’t know what my dream was and told you to achieve yours.
This might also be the reason why I am writing my own life story right now.
