The only undergrad b-school in India that gets you in action for the real world

Reset Button of life.

As I reflect on my life, I realize that there have been moments when I have done or said some things that I regret now. 

I had a close friend with whom I shared everything, but due to misunderstandings, we eventually stopped talking. Initially, I thought it didn’t affect me much, but over time, I realized that it had left a void in me that I hadn’t recognized earlier. Over the years, that incident has continued to weigh heavily on my mind. Whenever I think back on that day, I feel a wave of guilt wash over me. I wish I could go back in time and undo what I had said, but that is not possible.

However, I understood that dwelling on the past and the “what-ifs” wouldn’t help me move forward. To let go of this incident, I had to accept the fact that not all relationships last forever and it’s okay to let them go. I realized that holding onto past grudges hurt and  weigh me down. Prevent me from moving forward in life. Instead, I choose to focus on gratitude and the positive things in my life, and remind myself that every experience, good or bad, has taught me something and helped me grow as a person.

Letting go is like hitting the restart button on a computer, but for our lives. It can be a difficult process as we often hold onto things tightly, convinced that they are essential to our identity or happiness. But just like a computer that needs to be restart to function better, we too need to let go of things that no longer serve us to move forward. 

The act of letting go can be both freeing and terrifying. It’s just like letting go of a trapeze bar and trusting that another will appear for us to grab onto. It requires us to face our fears, insecurities head-on and be willing to confront the reality. We need to move on from something that once felt safe and familiar. It can be emotional and difficult, but it’s necessary if we want to grow.

I know that letting go is a continuous process. Just like a computer needs to constantly update and restart itself to function at its best, we too need to let go of something or other in this journey of life. Letting go is not a one-time event but a continuous practice of shedding the old and welcoming the new.

Letting go is like the power of Hulk. Just as Bruce Banner must release control and allow his inner rage to take over to become the Hulk, I can’t help but think about the times in life when I have had to surrender control and release my attachments to things, people or situations that were no longer serving me. Just like the Hulk’s transformation can be both terrifying and exhilarating, letting go can be an emotional rollercoaster.

I have realized that letting go is not an easy process, but I am taking steps towards it. I plan on talking to my friend to try and resolve the issues or at least gain closure. Additionally, I will be taking time for myself to reflect and heal. I believe that  this will help me move forward and eventually let go of any negative feelings or attachments. It  may be a challenging journey, but I am committed to it and look  forward to the growth and peace it will bring.
