What inspires me and what makes me go crazy

For the first part I would rather like to answer “who” inspires me, and that would be MKBHD aka Marques Brownlee. This great person is a tech reviewer who’s basically all about technology. Mobile technology in particular is the one thing that makes me go crazy or nuts. I could spend days in watching mobile tech videos on my laptop while my body disseminates on the bed.

All this passion started when I bought my first (Crappy) smartphone. All the research that I could do as a layman resulted in that shitty piece of plastic and metal. From then on I started my “journey towards enlightenment of mobile tech”.

Hours and hours were spent in front of the laptop screen browsing for different aspects and intricacies of mobile phone. GBs and GBs of internet data was exhausted on watching YouTube videos just for the sake of the satisfaction that I got after knowing all that stuff. That feeling is just inexplicable to others.

MKBHD started as a teen tech reviewer who made V-logs of his interactions with different gadgets. He’s now 20 years old and the world’s biggest and most trustworthy tech reviewer out there. The largest fraction of my knowledge of tech comes from his part. He’s so into his gadgets that he’s now come down to reviewing anything that has an “ON” button. This is what inspires me about him the most!

It’s all very amusing to know all the pesky little and mighty great things that such a small piece of hardware as a phone can do!

Want to listen to some music? Want to watch a movie? Want to get updated with the rest of the world? Want to talk to someone? Want to play some games? Want to watch your TV? Too lazy to switch on your other electronics? Too lazy to even pick up your phone? .... Well, Mobile tech is all ready for your rescue. 

These attributes of the tech world make me go crazy for it and make want to dive in its bank of knowledge fully.

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS

This is an incident of when I entered 12^th class. At that time, I was not very serious about studies. Most of my time was spent with my friends or my laptop. I was interested in the field of computers and programming, but had not thought of making it a career.

 I didn’t have very good reputation among my teachers. I used to bunk classes and often got scolded. My marks in exams were not very good either. Once, I, along with two of my friends, got into some heated argument with my Maths teacher (actually, it was more than just that). When the principal came to know about that, she called our parents. My father came to school. She told him about the incident. She also told him about the previous times I was caught doing mischiefs and exhibiting insolent behaviour. She warned of taking severe actions if I continued such activities. Upon hearing so much from the principal, he was upset but didn’t say anything to me. I knew that he didn’t expect much from me. That’s why I wanted to prove myself.

I knew that that year was the most crucial year of my life. The decisions and actions taken at this stage would define the course of the rest of my life. I began to think deeply about what I wanted from myself. I realized that I had already wasted a precious year, and now I have only a little time to make up.  I resolved to crack JEE Advance exam. I devoted myself to studies. I started to focus on what was taught in the class. My performance improved sharply. My classmates and teachers were amazed by such sudden change in me. I worked hard – harder than ever.

The exam went well. And as they say, hard work always pays. I got a decent rank in JEE Advance. It was a moment of extreme delight and pride for me and my family. The joy of achieving what you have persevered for so long, is incomparable. The most important thing that I’ve learnt is:

“Your dreams are worth it. Persevere. Because there is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”
