🕯 The Cost of Success

Everything in life is balanced. Stability exists in its own way.

Think you can cheat the system? Nah, you can't. If you believe you can achieve something without sacrifice, that belief itself is already your loss.

Want to study abroad? Fine, but be ready to say goodbye to your family. Aiming for a 1600 on the SAT or an acceptance letter from IVY college? Then prepare to sacrifice your time, energy, nerves, and money.

This rule of life still shocks me. I used to believe there was a way to relax and make a lot of money at the same time. But here it is – reality.

Don't expect quick results, guys. Every achievement demands the same level of effort and attention.

I know today is the final day to apply to U.S. colleges. Just a reminder – life isn’t unfair. It’s fair in the harshest way. Believe in yourself.

If you’ve put in the effort (even if not), remember – you will achieve what Allah knows is best for you.

Good luck. You've got this.🫡

🚩 Compete With Yourself, Not Others

Many people around me, when talking, try to provoke me by saying, "That guy is your competitor" or "She's going to beat you in admissions."

Guys, why do you think this way? Sure, thinking competitively might boost your motivation, especially when applying to your dream college. But this isn’t something to argue about. The only person you should compete with is the best version of yourself.

Focus on being the best you can be and build your own unique path. Don’t aim to outshine others just because someone says you should.

Maybe I haven't faced this yet and don't fully understand it, but I’ve seen many cases where ordinary guys get into universities simply because they didn’t focus on beating others in IELTS, SAT, or any other challenge.

I truly believe that everyone has their future written on their forehead. Just study, put in the effort, and take risks. You’ll achieve anything.

🧐 Reality of Getting In

I know that ‘getting in’ to the prestigious program, being one of the few Uzbeks who receive this acceptance, and achieving 200 subscribers in a day might seem like a great achievement, but most people around don’t understand the real effort that was put in or what will be required in the future.

They don’t realize the things that were sacrificed: sleepless nights, a million versions of a single essay, or even the nerves when there’s only an hour left until the deadline.

After being accepted, I’m realizing how much still needs to be done, even after being admitted. There’s so much to complete and apply for: visas, notary services, agreements, and health forms. Even something as simple as booking a flight takes time and, of course, money.

It turns out no one will be waiting for you at the airport in NYC. I’ll have to make my way to New Haven by myself. If you arrive earlier, you’ll need an apartment to stay in or close relatives who can provide a place for a day or two.

I don’t want to make you feel depressed or give you a “don’t apply” mindset. I just want you to be aware of these challenges before applying and not assume that everything is as easy as butter on bread.

Definitely apply for this opportunity and try your best on the essays. I want more Uzbeks to get in and increase opportunities for Uzbeks internationally. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in DM.

Uzbek Conquerors

I know many guys who were aiming to get into Harvard, but I have never seen such a determined guy who worked on a single project to make it great - I mean Ibrat Debate.

I'm really glad to see that all his efforts paid off.

Recently, I heard that the better students in international universities perform, the more spots the next generation will have to get in.

Wishing luck to all students in international universities in their studies.

Don't forget, you can make Uzbekistan great again, as it was in the past.

Modern problems require modern solutions

First time had a talk with a ChatGPT voice mod. You know, it feels really great. It listens to you until the end, tries to analyze everything you said, and also asks some really interesting questions that an ordinary listener wouldn't ask.

15 minutes were enough to wake up my 'hibernated Russian.' I was amazed by the technologies people are updating every week. One year ago, it couldn't really answer a typical yes-no question correctly, but right now, you can't recognize whether it's human or not by the thoughts it's giving.

I won't be bored repeating this: I am amazed. Recommend everyone to use this feature at least once and understand what I'm telling you.

Ig, if a group of people continues talking with ChatGPT every day for 15 minutes, after a year, you won't be able to realize their non-nativeness.

P.S. Just some info to share: I studied at a Russian school until my 5th grade. But then, after switching my classes to Uzbek, I faced the problem mentioned above. My Russian lost its smoothness.

Mondays really suck.

Even today, I spent most of my time working towards achieving my goal. These days, my full focus is on school—both during and outside of it. The main reason for this is running for "presidential seat".

Since 5th grade, I’ve dreamed of becoming the school president. There are countless reasons for this, but the biggest is my desire to make meaningful changes. In my 8th grade, when my brother became the president of his school, Mirzo Ulugbek, my ambition was reignited. Why shouldn’t I achieve the same, but in my own school?

To keep up with this effort, I’ve had to pause other activities. Even the usual schoolwork is demanding too much attention these days. Plus, with admissions approaching, I need to stay on track with test preparation. Still, I always say shukur to Allah. Everything I’ve achieved so far wasn’t just luck or effort; 99% of it was by His will and blessings.

Mondays still suck...

We had to work with a lot of light this time, striving to achieve the perfect frame and the right level of brightness. We faced many challenges today.

Even when the LED’s battery ran out and we were left in the fully dark school hall, we managed to capture some spectacular frames using just an iPhone 12 Pro.

Today, I learned a lot. I’m not sure how the final result will turn out, but I hope it will amaze.

P.S: we spent roughly 9 hours, from 11 am till 20pm.
