Iseng-iseng cari motivasi di google, akhirnya saya jatuh pada pilihan kata itu. Again, youtube inspired me with its motivational video. Dan saat ini, sebetulnya banyak sekali sumber-sumber yang dapat menginspirasi kita bahkan di hari terburuk yang kita punya. Langsung saja saya kutip kata-katanya Rocky Balboa dalam film Rocky yang saya liat di youtube.
"Let me tell you something you already know.
The world ain't sunshine and rainbows.
The world ain't sunshine and rainbows.
It's a very mean and nasty place, and i dont't care how tough you are,
It will beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it.
It will beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it.
You, me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.
But it ain't about how hard you hit.
It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward".
Listened to the words above, i remember one of my friends. He had got beaten by life for many times. There were so many problems came into his life. I imagined, if i were him i might not be able to handle the problems. He is a tough guy, but again, it's not how tough you are. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
But it ain't about how hard you hit.
It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward".

Teman saya ini dulu kurang begitu dominan di kantor sehingga dia kerap menjadi obyek penderita dari sebuah pekerjaan (mengerjakan pekerjaan besar dengan imbalan yang tak setimpal). Sebelum menikah, dia jatuh dari motor yang sedikit banyak akan mempengaruhi kehidupannya. Jatuhnya dari motor menyebabkan dia cedera pada tulang punggung yang menyebabkan dia sakit-sakitan.
Life is Hard
Karirnya di dunia teknik kurang bersinar ditambah lagi dengan setelah dia mengalami cedera punggung. Suatu ketika setelah menikah, mertuanya sakit-sakitan dan membutuhkan dana. Delapan tahun berlalu dalam pernikahan tanpa dikaruniai seorang anak merupakan penderitaan tersendiri tentunya. Gagal dalam perkawinannya yang kedua merupakan kisah tragis berikutnya. Sampai suatu ketika, penyakit punggungnya menghendaki dia untuk dioperasi yang biayanya puluhan juta rupiah. Membahagiakan kedua orang tua yang hendak pergi berhaji, merupakan tantangan tersendiri untuk staff dengan gaji pas-pas an.Resiko hidup/mati dalam operasi diambilnya dan karena sakitnya dia memutuskan untuk pindah ke kantor cabang, meninggalkan dunia tehnik, beralih ke dunia sales dan marketing.
Karirnya tidak langsung menanjak setelah bergelut dalam dunia marketing. Setahun berlalu, kemudian dia berhasil membuat kantor cabangnya bersinar, penjualan di sana meningkat tajam. Namun semuanya itu dianggap "nothing" oleh atasannya yang takut tersaingi sehingga penilaian "BBB-Benar-benar biasa" diberikan oleh atasannya. Dalam kemelut konflik, anak keduanya lahir dengan daging lebih di telinga yang mengharuskan dia mengeluarkan kocek yang tak sedikit. Hampir bersamaan dengan itu, bapaknya masuk rumah sakit karena batu empedunya menghendaki sang bapak untuk dioperasi. Again, again and again....got hit by the life.
Hidup tentunya akan terasa sulit dengan beban yang saya sebutkan di atas, lagi, lagi dan lagi, dihantam oleh kesulitan hidup. Dan saat ini he decided to resign from our company, he has got better offer out there. He was offered as a manager with 3-4 times higher salary than he's got in our company.
Pak Joko Tukang Gelas
I met him couple weeks ago in UIN Sunday Market. He sold sandals. I tried to open conversation while we were waiting for customers to come. He told me a sad story about him and family. He used to be a success enterpreneur. He had two printing companies infront of UIN. He could buy a house and car from this earnings. Life was so beautiful to him. He was a boss with some employees.
Until one day he came at the office and found nothing was there. He had lost everything. His trusted employee did it. Life then became so hard for him. He was so frustrated to find himself bankrupt. I told him that he was so strong that he still alive now. He said "Aku hampir stress mas, aku hampir bunuh diri". But it was couple years ago and now he is moving forward with selling glass. He can earn Rp. 540rb per day from selling glass. Now his wife has to help him to earn money, i saw her in the UIN Sunday market selling clothes.
Well, my friends, life will hit you many times. How hard can we get hit?Can we still move forward after get hits?
