Sample Answer

 It is written somewhere that our decisions decide what our fate would be.

 Every person, in his life, has to make certain selections either for him or for others and those
choices have to be made with discretion because sometime a person’s whole life may be
depended on that.

 In my life, I have made plenty of decisions. Some are good where others are horrible.

 But I am very happy that I have the courage to make decision of my own.

 One such choice I remember which I had to make when I passed 10th standard.

 Well, it is not good to praise oneself. But I am a gold medalist in my college.

 But here it is relevant that’s why I have revealed that.

 I passed my S.S.C with 90 % marks. so, it is obvious that everyone expects me to study in science
field.

 Because in my hometown students who get 90% and above marks would join science.

 However, I have always been interested in art and literature. So, I have decided to join arts
faculty not even commerce.

 When I discussed it with my family. They were all angry with me. They opposed my decision.

 I could not find even a single friend or relative who could back me up on this decision.

 Everyone was worried because as far as the income is concerned arts faculty has got low
potential.

 Still, as I was so interested in it I thought it would be better to pursue a career in which you are
interested. It was a tough deal. Yet, I made it.

 And, now after 5 years of that decision being taken, I think that decision was bold yet discreet.

 Due to that decision, I enjoy my life fully. I pursued my career for which I had a fascination.

 To outside world, I may seem less successful but as far as the happiness is concerned, I enjoy
each moment of my life because my hobby is my job.
