Proposal Experience :)

The day that our instructor told us to propose an idea for the start-up competition that we will be joining was also the day that I started to feel nervous every time we have our technopreneurship class. I am nervous and, at the same time, afraid because I don’t know if I could deliver the things that I want to convey based on the idea that I want to propose. Some of my classmates were so lucky because they have experienced to propose once and our instructor instantly approved their presented ideas. While the others, including me, presented our ideas for the n^th times because of rejections. Whenever my ideas are rejected, it lowers my confidence to present another ideas because I am too shy and scared to be rejected again. There was a time that I am already questioning myself why I can’t generate an idea that our instructor could say a yes or could give me a thumbs up gesture. With all the rejections I have experienced, I almost give up and I felt worried that what if the time will come our instructor won’t be able to give us another chance to propose and I felt pressured also because I am the only one left in our group that didn’t have an approved proposal. So for that, I just grab the opportunity to propose another idea and accept the consequences it brings. I am just happy and thankful that I have my ever supportive group mates who lifted my spirit to fight and not to give up unless our instructor will not approved my ideas. But now, I consider this day, August 29, 2014, as one of the most remarkable day of my life because at last, my sleepless nights and efforts were now paid back with a “YES”. Basically because my proposal is now approved. I just realized that we should not easily give up when we face a lot of rejections and fight until the end because the feeling we felt when we succeed is really worth it.
