And I can say for sure, that 6 years down the line also, I will be having this shirt because it's a part of me, something I look at and connect with emotionally. So when I had to write how Aditya Birla Group personally played a part in my life, I had nothing on my mind except for this shirt that is in my closet in my hostel. Yes, I have it with me and not in the closet that's in my home.
How I overcame challenge(s) in my life
I will be sharing the latest challenge I faced in my life. So I had worked for 2 years in a company based out of Chennai and around the one and a half year mark, I had started to feel like I wasn’t learning anything new and not pushing myself to test my capabilities.
I always had the idea of giving CAT in the back of my mind and it came to the forefront and it was actually controlling me. And then it was an internal battle of the paths which I had to take for my future. And I feel this is the most important battle I’ve faced in my life because it was internal.
Once that thought had come up, I didn’t want to give in. I tried to switch jobs, attended multiple interviews and every interview ended with a rejection. Few of those, I was able to find out why, the rest of the interviews I felt I did good, but then it happens. Now then, I was left with the only option that is to go for CAT because I knew if I would be going for a higher education, it would be an MBA. And hence I started preparing for CAT while on my job.
2 months went by and if I had clarity on something, it was that I won’t do good on CAT while I tried to prepare while being on the job. I was and am always, do one thing properly or not do it at all kind of person. I knew I had to leave my job to prepare for CAT which was a decision which is going to completely change my life and how it would change remained uncertain as I didn’t know how I would be performing there. I had to put a lot of effort into coming to terms with that decision which is where a famous psychologist in the world was a great help. He said if you want to change your life, take responsibility and that’s what I did. I knew if I gave my true effort during my preparation I would be able to get a good college wherein I can enhance my career and myself as a person. So here I am sharing this from IIM-Nagpur which feels like my home even though this is the first time I’ve moved out of my house.
