This is not what you are thinking Will!!!

If you are thinking that I would narrate the same old Harry Potter story here, then I am afraid to say that you are wrong. This blog has nothing to do with any of J.K Rowling’s 👩‍🎨 creative novels.

Then What it could be?😟😟😟 This is an interview story with the famous Mechatronics Engineer, Mr.Talha Iqbal.😮😮😮

Mr. Talha is not only a fantastic Engineer but also an extremely positive individual and today, we are blessed to provide you with his most exceptional academic struggle that dates back to his university days. HE SAYS…..

We are too!!! 😻😻

“Positivity is not just a personal trait. It is a way of life. Surprising as it may sound, I believe adversity is more than just a hurdle in our pathway to success. It is an opportunity to bring out the best in you-the positive emotions that motivates you to learn even from the worst of the outcomes.

I have encountered many challenges in my academic career and each one of them aided me to improve myself.

Being an enthusiastic engineer, I have always set my eyes on fabricating quality technical projects that eventually challenges my technical capabilities. My final year project (FYP)” Modeling & Control of Active Suspension System” is not only a representation of my said enthusiasm rather it is a product of a struggle I faced because of a lack of deliberate noncompliance.

Initially, the situation went smoothly as I took the command of a 3-member FYP group. Me, Javed and Ahmed. 😭😭😭I was fully aware of the complexity of the project and so, I had my eyes laid on my team to pull off this spectacular achievement.

However, in the second phase of project development, one of my team members, Javed called off from his responsibilities👺👺👺. According to him, he was not comfortable managing it with his academic routine. It was a lame excuse because this project was a compulsion. He viewed this as an opportunity of getting” a return with no investment”. Being a responsible leader, I tried to convince him, but all efforts went in vain. So I had no other choice but to continue without him now with added responsibilities. I assigned him the task of programming the project. And now, other than being responsible for the mechanical infrastructure of the project, I was forced to manage the programming aspect of it as well.

The conditions were extreme. It was a challenging scenario for me and my other partner Ahmed. I can’t risk losing my and Ahmed’s reputation for presenting a mediocre project. And so, taking this challenge as an opportunity to excel, we burnt the midnight oil😱😱😱. At one point in time, I thought of giving up.😵😵😵 But astonishingly😇😇😇, after seeing the joyous face of my Ahmed, I eventually let go of this foolish idea.

He didn’t say a word after that😇😇😇. His 😏😏😏gave me his message. This was the first glimpse of positive thinking. Then came the thundering shock waves of this mighty earthquake. Over the past few months, I saw a miraculous response from my batch mates who were highly empathetic towards my efforts. Together with the support of my friends; We were overwhelmed to see the final product of our efforts. My project supervisor was extremely delighted to see our performance and awarded a fantastic grade in the last semester.

We finally did it!

It was a long and tiring journey to success.😀😀😀 I learned that emotions especially positive emotions are contagious. Such emotions not only impart a sense of joy and fulfillment to oneself but also influences our surroundings in the utmost pleasant way possible”.😀😀😀😇🙂😉😍😍🥰😘😚🥳🤩
