Well, there is no doubt hard work is the key to success. So in the fast-paced life, everyone want to attain something new in their life. So for this reason, they won the Mid-Net Oil. So here today I am going to talk about a prize that I received when I got the first position in the state level science competition. And I consider it was a year ago when I received this prize. To win this prize, I made a handmade projector and left a stone unturned in this preparation. So firstly, I gather all the necessary material such as a glass sheet, pan, small quantity of fries, cardboard box, water and some spices. After that, I made a box with the assistance of a glass sheet and covering it from all the side except the top so the rays of the sun could pass through. Inside the box, I placed the pan with some quantity of rice, added water and some spices. This was a natural cooking process under which the sharp rays of the sun cook the rice within just 15 minutes. So it was a fabulous project that I made and when my teacher saw this project, they felt extremely happy. But the final decision was in the hand of a chief guest. So when the chief guest inspect my project quite closely and then they walked away. At that moment, I felt down in the dumps because I had given up the hope of winning the prize. However, when the results were announced, I was shocked because I had won the first prize in this competition and my joy is no bounds. I felt over the moon. Ultimately, the reason of my happiness was not only the result but also the hard work, also the realization of the hard work that brought me to success and also the joy and proud that I face on my parent faces ultimately made me happy.
