The Journal of My Journey from “what is English” to “It is English”
When I got below-average marks in English in my higher secondary exam. I was broken completely as there was a trend of English-speaking people everywhere in India in those days. The book named “Repidex English Speaking Course” used to be the part of display at every bookstore. I was so depressed that I could not do satisfactorily in the subject. I was feeling like an untouchable guy in the society.
The day after the result I took a vow that one day I would speak English as well. And I have started collecting higher-level books written by foreign English Scholars. I started questing for a good tutor of the language around the city. I have had encounters with so many novice tutors but none of them worked for me. Then I happened to a city’s prominent English professor Sir R.P. Jain. He was known to be so strict in his practice with students that most of them did not stay for long in his classes and I was one of them too. I attended four or five days and everything he taught me bounced my understanding level. He was a phonetically correct guy. But I was determined to learn English by any hook or crook. This time I revisited his class and I stayed there completing my entire session. I came to know attending his classes was the level I had to attain. And the journey continued till a year before his death. While learning English my focus shifted from speaking to writing. I was inspired by the writers whose fiction and nonfiction genre books I have gone through.
I have struggled a lot during the reach to this state where I can write and speak English comfortably. I believe that the manifestation technique has played a great role in achieving the aim. The law of attraction I have been simply impressed with the term. And I see it in the Bhagwad Gita perspective.
I am a writer now and write for various platforms including medium.com is one of them. Though I joined the platform quite a while ago and the followers don’t count well there I am affirmed to run neck to neck with legends who have thousands of followers. I have started a podcast named “Anadi Talks” on various platforms like Apple podcast and Spotify recently. I utter my words about mental health and self-help topics there. I am a big fan of Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, @Ryanholiday, and Mr. Dashk Jindal. I wish to have the grace of my readers and listeners to serve you in a better way and add higher value to your day-to-day life.
Thank you all.
