Answer to Question #235753 in English for CCW

Question

Describe in detail a significant event or specific encounter with a specific person in your life

Answer 1

Starting over.

One of the hardest things to do in life is to make the decision to start over. Everybody fails, but nobody likes to admit failure. When you start over, whether it be a new career, a new city, or with a new lover, it’s all about admitting that you made a wrong decision. Or, perhaps more correctly, it is an admission that the thing you were doing isn’t the right thing anymore. Though we read all over the Internet how important it is to accept failure, doing so is one of the most difficult things we can do. We all imagine ourselves as infallible, or at least pretty damn great.

To admit that the plan you’ve dedicated years to, that you’ve poured thousands of dollars into, that you’ve built a life around, isn’t working is one of the hardest things one can do. The good news is that the sooner you start over, the sooner you can start building a new life, and the sooner you can start to pursue new experiences that will change you forever.
