This motivates me everyday from Delhi to Gurgaon.

One day I will join Google. One day I will become rich. One day I will go abroad for the first time. One day I will move from Delhi to US. One day I will pay down my family's loans. One day I will go to a 5 star hotel without a bill. One day I will cross my aukaat. One day I will die. One day.

Family said I am good for nothing but I finally I got an offer from Google

I am originally from a small town and did my BSc in Computer Science. My relatives and neighbours used to say that I am a good for nothing freeloader who is a "nikamma" - unemployed. It was very hard to find a job back then and I used to have deep anxiety about it. My only dream was to get my fathers appreciation. He is my biggest hero. So I started preparing very hard and practiced my skills. The only one who supported me was my mother who used to give me tea even at 3 in the morning while I used to study. Even my own father gave up on me and from time to time he used to say that if you are living under my roof then you have to follow my rules. He also used to say that look at the neighbour's ladka who got a government job and he asked me to prepare for Bank PO. So I moved out from my town and shifted to Gurgaon where I got a small PG with some money that my mother had given me. I also started freelancing on Fiverr and which led me to improve my communication skills. Finally, when I got my Google offer letter I felt like I made it. It was the best response to all the taunts by people around me. I suddenly became a superstar in my town with people congratulating my parents. I bought my mother gold bangles and dad a new watch with my first salary. I was looking at my offer letter today and it reminded me of all the hardwork I did to achieve this moment. This is the story of my life. In case anyone needs help. I am ready to provide support to aspirants here as a way to give back.
