Iron lady of Pakistan - Muniba Mazari

Failure to Success

Life is a precious and a beautiful gift and one should live it to the fullest. However sometimes we get too engrossed that we forget to enjoy this gift. We keep on postponing our happiness, health and then we realize that we haven't lived the life meaningfully. This is a story of Muniba Mazari Pakistan's first model, anchor & artist who is on wheelchair. Her life changed when she met with an fatal car accident which left her paralyzed for rest of her life. The tragic car accident left her with several injuries as her backbone was crushed and she sustained multiple fractures to her arms, shoulder, collarbone and rib cage. Her liver and lungs were injured as well and she remained under treatment. Despite all these injuries that struck her, Mazari tried remaining positive, and greeted everyone who came to meet her with a smile on her face. This attitude confused the visitors and often they questioned her if she was really unwell. It was only because Mazari had decided that she was going to live for herself. She was not going to be that perfect person for someone, she was just going to take this moment and she will make it perfect for herself. She was going to fight her fears; the fears of known, unknown, losing money, losing health and fear of the inner self.

Mazari was named one of British Broadcasting Corporation’s 100 Most Inspirational Women in 2015 and was also featured in Forbes’ 30 Under 30 the following year.
