Part B: How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far. ?
If you've ever been beaten down, ever cried in the night, ever wondered why life throws you curve balls you can't possibly hit, you've been in the struggle. The struggle is a part and parcel of every success story. It’s important to understand that success is not a destination but a journey.
My journey started from a small village in Rayagada district of Odisha. My father, who worked as a watch mechanic, is the sole breadwinner for my family. With two children to bring up, my parents did everything to provide a well-rounded life to me.
After passing my class 10th, I very well knew that I had to make a momentous change to support my family. I wanted to go to a good junior college but was hesitant due to the fee structure. I started taking tuitions & helped my father in his shop to reduce my financial burden on my family.
I completed my bachelors and went on to pursue my interest at Infosys. My parents are overwhelmed and are still coming to terms with the fact that their sacrifices did not go in vain.
I worked hard and got shortlisted in XIMB admission final list. The choice was tough as I had to let go of a secure job with decent pay and follow my dream or to stay where I was supporting my family. Then my father words resonated in my ears.
He used to tell me, “Find the thing which drives you and pour your heart into it to achieve it. Cultivate the value system in your life. What I think is that success and failure are part of the journey but what drives our life is our value system.” #ABGLP #ABGWOOME #XIMB #ABGWOOMESEASON-2
