Iam supposed to write a college essay and my topic is about my life experiences. how would i start to write

My life was a piece of cake until the real struggle began.I was going through a rough patch in my life; the struggle with myself.

That phase of my life was the one that taught me a lesson and enhanced my personal growth.

I sat back,left everything and took a look at my life.A blurred future appeared in front of my eyes.My motivation was low.I went through panic attacks and anxiety.Hence,I continuously blamed my personal and family problems for everything wrong that was going on.I knew that I had to buck up and get back to life.There was no reason for a teenager like me to sulk and grieve over the things that I was not even supposed to think about. Few weeks passed by after which the turning point came in the messed up scenario.I found a real gold piece of brilliant biography of Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam which created an immense change in me.I can not be more grateful for the learnings that this book has given me and the impact that it has created on my brain.This book has actually paved a way for me in the darkness around.The book taught me that the willingness to use one's own inner resources to invest in one's life, especially imagination,will bring success and clarity. It was like a true eye opener for me. I felt like someone has cherished me with knowledge of life and soul.I realised that I was sent forth by God to cultivate my creative potential within me and live in peace with my choices.I felt as if I had discovered the path I was meant to follow, God's mission for me and my purpose on his earth.Life is indeed a difficult game.Complexity lies in brain.It is not necessary to be an example for others but the significant thing that matters is to grow and realise one's responsibility towards parents and the country.Blaming others is not the way life can progress.Committing mistakes and learning from those mistakes is the sign of maturity.I remember that when I was alone,I seeked the company of others.I looked for people to console me but no one cared.Everyone was busy in their own lives.This made me feel vulnerable and depressed. However, Sir Kalam taught me that this is not a correct approach to deal with the circumstances. One must understand the difference between a fear ridden-vision of destiny and the vision that enables us to seek the enemy of fulfilment within ourselves. Life comes along with decision that choose our fate and I have chosen to grow and inspire. Pushing myself is all I can do and need to do as I don't have any other way out. Afterall,defeat is not yet declared.I am a believer in Karma and I do believe that things happen for a reason.Little did I know that the depressed state of me could lead me to a path of passion,where I am free to do whatever I believe.Indeed trivial things make great changes.
