I was told I will never be able to head a district. I was never posted as ADCG. I was posted as DC during elections because no one was willing to post me otherwise. Still I was not in the top 3 officers to be posted in district and was one number below the last option.
Now that I connect the dots each failure led me towards my success. Shuker Alhamdolillah. I thank Allah for teaching me and training me and leading me through all the failures.
Never let yourself down when you don’t succeed.
