+## Interesting Fact About Me
+I had **14 arrears** in my engineering course at the end of my 3rd year.  
+At the start of my 4th year, someone asked me sarcastically whether I could clear all of them, and that moment motivated me strongly.
+
+I decided to change my approach completely. I created my **own timetable**, studied consistently, and worked hard on all **14 subjects**. As a result, I cleared all **14 papers by the 7th semester** and successfully attended my graduation — along with the same person who doubted me.
+
+The reason I had arrears was because I studied **ECE due to my parents’ choice**, while my real interest has always been in **CSE and IT**. Once I focused on what I truly wanted, I proved to myself that discipline and determination can overcome any challenge.
