There is no doubt, hard work is key to success. In this fast-paced life, everyone wants to attain something in their life that’s why they burn the midnight oil to become successful. Here, I would like to talk about one achievement when I got the first position in state level science competition.

It has been almost a year since I made a handmade project and I left no stone unturned in the preparation for the competition. I took so many things like a pan, a small quantity of rice, some spices, water, a card box, and a glass sheet.

First of all, I made a box with a glass sheet. I covered it from all sides and the top was open so the rays of the sun can pass from all sides. In that box, I put a pan and kept rice. After that, I added water and some required spices. It was a natural process, with the sharp rays of the sun, and in 15 minutes the rice was ready.

It was a fabulous project. When teachers saw my project, they felt extremely happy, but the decision was in the hand of the chief guest. He was inspecting my project quite closely and he did not say anything and went away.

I felt down in the dumps and left the hope of a prize but when the result was announced. I got first prize. That time my joy knew no bounds or felt over the moon.

Ultimately, the reason for my joy was not only the result but also the realization that hard work has brought me success. Also the joy and pride of my parents because of my achievement was noticeable and I felt really proud.
