failed business, financial debt, no job and no money - but this is a video about Success - YouTube
Channel: unknown
[0]
My business failed, and I
wasn't doing anything else.
[4]
I had no job, I had ₹4200 in my account.
[8]
I asked for ₹30,000 from my
father, when everything had gone south.
[12]
That was to debt I had to pay
[14]
because credit card company
was actually making my life hell.
[17]
They were calling me ridiculously
every single day and night.
[21]
Yes, you read the title right.
[23]
I was actually going to give up.
[25]
But something stopped me
[28]
hear this video,
watch this video right till the end.
[31]
And I promise, it is going
to have an impact on you.
[35]
If you are about to give up or if you are
struggling through something right now.
[40]
This is a very honest
account of my own life
[44]
of the past two years of my life.
[47]
And I feel this is a very inspirational story.
[52]
I am a YouTuber today.
[53]
People know me, and I am an educator.
[57]
Students know me, but I was none of this.
[61]
A few months ago, I was none of this,
[63]
and I was working very hard to
become this, but I was not there.
[71]
I was working from
years and years and years,
[73]
I had started off with a business of mine.
[78]
We are not going
to get into that,
[79]
what it wasn't, what was it all about?
No, nothing like that.
[83]
All I just want to say here is
that I started with it, and it failed.
[88]
And I was down by at least ₹10-12 lakh,
[91]
which I had borrowed,
so there was a debt,
[95]
and more than the debt there was
this emotional burden of failing.
[99]
And this was all happening
after me clearing CA.
[103]
So many people think that if you
have a strong degree in your hand.
[107]
Nothing wrong can happen to you
and your life is sorted forever.
[111]
That's not true.
That's not really true.
[114]
Coming back.
[115]
My business failed, and I
wasn't doing anything else.
[119]
I had no job.
[121]
I had no money.
[122]
And I can tell you exactly how
much I had when I started again.
[125]
I had ₹4200 in my account
[129]
and you may feel that I'm rich,
but trust me guys, I'm not.
[134]
I was not
[136]
I am not I don't know,
[138]
because now I earn,
but I wasn't, I wasn't rich.
[141]
I come from a very humble middle
class family, and I was not rich,
[146]
and I was not in a
situation to ask for money,
[149]
but I did ask, I asked for
₹30,000 from my father,
[152]
when everything had gone south.
[154]
And there was no other option
I had to begin somewhere again.
[158]
And that is when I asked for my...
[160]
I asked my dad for ₹30,000.
[163]
That is how I started again and that was,
again, I mean, this is like four years ago,
[168]
this is not recent this is four years ago,
or three years ago or so.
[174]
And then again I started working and
things weren't working out, by the way.
[178]
I took and I borrowed money to
pay off my credit card stuff.
[182]
You may be thinking, I
mean, why, how come ₹30,000
[185]
is the only debt she
had to take care of?
[187]
No, that was the urgent debt.
[189]
That was to debt I had to pay
because credit card company
[193]
was actually making my life hell.
[195]
They were calling me, ridiculously
every single day and night,
[198]
and my living had become difficult.
[201]
So I had to give them something
to set them off for some time.
[205]
So that is by I borrowed
that money and I was working,
[208]
but I wasn't making anything much.
[210]
And that is how things are going on,
[212]
and they went on that way for almost
two and a half or three years or so.
[216]
This is going to be my third year
on YouTube, but in the first two years
[220]
nothing was happening.
[221]
I barely could cross
10,000 subscribers
[223]
after one and a half years
of my YouTube journey.
[225]
Which is not a very big number, by the way.
[228]
So it started off that way.
[232]
For almost two years no
YouTube happening and
[235]
people were treating me
not in a good way
[237]
because they knew that somewhere
this girl needs the help.
[241]
So they could figure it out
probably I was very needy
[244]
and I showed myself needy
[246]
and they could see it and
when people know that they take...
[249]
They don't pay you well,
when they find that out about you.
[254]
So that was something
that was happening with me.
[256]
I worked with many
many many people
[258]
during those 2-3 years.
[261]
And none of them were paying me well,
I was being terribly underpaid.
[266]
And the reason was that I wanted
to do something again of my own.
[270]
I could have entered a normal job
but I did not want to do that,
[274]
I had a CA degree in my hand but I
did not want to do that because I knew
[277]
that if I go back to that life,
[279]
I will never be able to come out of it.
[282]
And that was not something
that I wanted to do.
[284]
So that is how I kept on trying,
[288]
I kept on trying.
[289]
I worked for almost, I don't know, some
10-15 people during those two years.
[295]
I was working with so many people,
[297]
one after the other, because something
or the other used to always go wrong.
[300]
Sometimes they would not pay me
sometimes they would hold my checks back
[304]
and sometimes they would just blame me
for some poor performance or something.
[311]
A lot of stuff happened,
a lot of things happened.
[314]
So anyway, this was December 2019
my sister was getting married.
[318]
And I remember
a chat with my other sister,
[323]
the one who was not getting married,
and I told her that I'm deeply insecure.
[327]
And I don't know if I am doing
anything at all right with my life.
[333]
Nothing was working out.
[335]
I was gaining age, and I... Of course,
[338]
I mean you don't,
[340]
you want to be successful
as early as possible.
[344]
And of course as time passes, none
of us are getting younger, right?
[348]
And so that is something
that I discussed with her.
[351]
I asked her,
am I doing anything right here?
[354]
I mean, is it going to
really work for me ever?
[357]
And that was something I asked
her, and she said this to me.
[361]
I remember she said that,
you know what Baji.
[364]
She calls me Baji,
she says a very nice thing,
[368]
which I did realize
about myself later on.
[370]
She said that Baji,
[371]
you are a person who takes
very courageous decisions,
[375]
but then, the courage that you need
to follow through your decision.
[380]
When you've taken a decision and
now you are executing your decision
[384]
that courage you don't have,
you lake that courage.
[388]
So, either you decide on doing something,
[391]
or you don't decide on doing something,
[392]
I mean you decide
on not doing something.
[395]
And then you stick to it.
[396]
Why are you so jumpy.
[398]
Why are you always this and that?
[400]
If you've taken a decision
you've taken a bold decision,
[403]
you've got to stick to it.
[404]
If you've taken a decision, do it.
[406]
That is what she told me, which
actually hit me, it hit me hard
[410]
and probably she's watching my video
because she's a subscriber of my channel,
[413]
she often watches my videos, by the way.
[415]
So, eye opener, because that was something
that I did realize about myself.
[421]
I did realize that about myself,
but nobody had ever told that to me,
[426]
and because of which I probably wanted,
[429]
I probably needed not wanted but
needed to hear that from someone
[433]
to give myself a little assurance.
[435]
And when she said this to me
I did agree that yeah
[438]
my decisions are courageous
I've taken bold steps in life.
[441]
And now I need some more courage
to follow through my decisions.
[445]
And then that is what I did.
[447]
2019 December, nothing
was working out, had no money.
[451]
I was, I will not say
paycheck to paycheck, because
[456]
I was blessed to be living in my own house,
[459]
I did not have rent to pay
but had I had rent to pay,
[462]
I don't know how I
would have managed that.
[465]
So that was 2019 December.
[469]
This is slightly
what do you call it superstitious,
[473]
or probably you will feel that this
is a small fantasy she is having.
[478]
But really, I do feel this
way that something changed.
[483]
With my God.
[484]
I think he saw it, he saw it that
this girl is about to give up.
[489]
And if I don't listen to her now.
[492]
If I don't answer her prayers
now, she's going to break.
[496]
And whatever we have in store for her.
[499]
Really, I do believe that I'm really
really really saying this to you.
[503]
He had so much to give me
[505]
so much to give me,
but I was about to give up.
[510]
And Because I was about to give up.
[512]
He could have never been
able to give it to me.
[515]
So he had bigger plans for me
you're getting my point?
[519]
He had huge plans for me but I think,
[524]
not sure,
[525]
we don't talk, you see,
only I talk, he listens.
[528]
He doesn't talk back.
[530]
So I don't know, but this is
my heart saying this to me.
[533]
I think, something changed in him.
[537]
He said that if I don't
give her now, probably,
[540]
we are going to lose a gem, because
I'm a gem, I do believe that.
[544]
I have a beautiful heart, and I
don't need to hear this from anyone.
[551]
I know that about myself.
[553]
I have a beautiful heart.
[554]
And if I will do anything good in my life.
[557]
I'm going to share that joy, I'm not
going to only and only keep it to myself.
[561]
So probably, that was one
thing that changed my God,
[565]
and he decided to finally break it free.
[568]
And then suddenly
[570]
I don't know from where
there was this video of mine
[574]
that I shot in June or I don't
remember I shot it in June, I believe,
[579]
somewhere in March, April or June,
I don't remember.
[582]
That was in the first half of
2020 during the COVID times
[586]
my video picked up.
[588]
Okay.
[589]
That video went viral,
[590]
And there were some 1 million views, or so,
within the first 2-3 months.
[596]
Suddenly my channel,
[597]
it went from 25,000 subscribers
[599]
and now you watch the
number, the count over there.
[602]
So this is all the count that
I have gathered in the last
[608]
eight or nine, seven or eight months,
nine months maybe.
[612]
So my progress has happened,
entirely in the last nine or 10 months
[616]
it hasn't been even--
It's not been a year, I'm pretty sure.
[621]
It's not been a year.
[622]
It's been 7-8 months, and from 25,000
subscribers, the channel, picked up,
[629]
and it went from 25,000 to 5,45,000.
[635]
Can you believe that 5,45,000
It's unbelievable.
[640]
Yes, it's unbelievable.
[642]
But I was not
an overnight success.
[646]
This has taken me six or seven years.
[649]
People do believe that about
me sometimes but I'm telling you,
[654]
it has been a very long journey.
[657]
The point of this video is that I
just wanted to share this with you
[661]
that when I was about to give up,
that is when things changed for me.
[666]
And they changed so beautifully for me.
[669]
Today, I am so grateful.
[673]
I don't want to say a lot because I
feel a little scared talking about it.
[678]
It's like a dream, it's like a dream.
[681]
So I just want to share this with you
and I just want to say this to you,
[684]
if you are somewhere indecisive,
you are scared.
[689]
You don't know where your life is going
[693]
probably wait a little longer
because had I not waited,
[698]
had I not tried harder,
I would have never gotten here.
[703]
My channel is doing well,
I earn good from YouTube,
[706]
I make a little money from
the brands also sometimes
[710]
sometimes I don't because sometimes
I don't have time to work with them.
[713]
So I just have to decline those offers.
[716]
And sometimes I am an educator,
I can't believe that.
[721]
I'm an established educator, you call
it for whatever reason, I don't care.
[728]
People may call it some 1000 reasons
that why she is an educator?
[732]
It is my hard work.
[734]
I don't care what people say.
[736]
It is my hard work, and I'm so
proud of myself, so proud of myself.
[741]
Till the time the success last, I don't
know till when it is going to last.
[746]
Till the time it lasts.
[748]
I am enjoying it.
[749]
I am just living it.
[751]
I'm enjoying it.
[753]
And I urge you to do that for yourself.
[756]
This is one life you've got
[758]
pamper yourself with some
hard work, pamper your dreams,
[763]
with some sweat and blood,
[765]
you don't know where the
results are going to come in from.
[769]
But the day they come, your
life is going to be so awesome.
[773]
That is all that I wanted to say to you
[775]
and I'm so excited
sharing this video with you.
[777]
Can't wait to upload it.
[779]
Alright guys, thank you very much.
[781]
I just wanted to bring this
small, little, little, what we call it?
[786]
I've said the word message, I
don't know how many times but
[790]
wanted to bring the small idea to you
that when you are about to give up
[794]
that is the moment you have to
push yourself harder,
[798]
try a little harder,
and just don't give up.
[802]
Don't give up
because if you're a dreamer.
[805]
You deserve good things.
[807]
Let them come to you.
[809]
Let your God feel that you know,
[811]
If we don't give her now she will go away,
she will be out of our hands.
[816]
Don't let that--
[817]
I mean don't let that thing, stop you.
[820]
Okay, and I believe that,
I strongly believe that
[824]
my God actually thought that.
[826]
That if I don't reward her now,
I'm going to lose her.
[830]
And I'm going to just let her go,
and she's so important.
[834]
Stop her.
[836]
All right, bye.
[838]
Take care.
