A successful journey comes with a lot of stress, failures, and hard work. There are many grudges on your way to success. These are tests in human life, and life will never stop teaching us lessons. We must learn from those lessons and act accordingly. Everything happens for a reason, and these are times to discover your true self.

Difficult situations are what strengthen us for what lies ahead. Life without these hard times would not make you have a story to tell tomorrow. Every successful person has a story to tell, and it shows how rough the road to success is. And I am here to share those difficult times with you.

My difficult time was when I was lacking a sense of direction for my financial earnings. It is hard for a soul to be solely dependent. We know that as students, we must get a side job to earn something for ourselves at the end of the day. I was on campus, and I was always doing my research on the internet on how to make money online. I was exposed to many websites, of which almost all were ponzi schemes.

There were many offers on all these sites, and I was overwhelmed to borrow money to invest in this site. It promised me twice my money within a month. I did my first withdrawal and borrowed my sister's school fees to invest in this site. What a moment in my life at the time!

I was confused and depressed because of this situation. I was unfortunate to have borrowed my sister's money. I was pressured by my sister, who needed to pay her fees. I lost trust in all online promise-to-invest and earn a high return websites. Likely on my part, she got a scholarship, which ends my story.

I was back to my nightmarish ways as a liability to my parents. I was introduced to this platform by a friend, which renewed my hopes of earning something to support myself.
