ABG(Affecting Billions around the Globe) - Anant Tomar, XIMB

Coming from a middle-class defense background family with a single parent made me mature way before time. The responsibilities I had at an early age were far from many kids my age could imagine. I had one aim and that was to study and build a good future for myself as well as my family. My communication skills were not good and due to that, I used to suffer. I took it as a challenge and did everything under the sun to improve it from taking part in debate competitions, extempore, joining different language clubs to watching English movies.  My hard work bore fruit when I cleared SSB (Services Selection Board) interview and joined Indian Naval Academy to become an officer in the Indian Navy. But the struggle wasn’t over for me. Somehow things got for the worse and I had to leave the academy. So close, yet so far. So here I was again, thinking about what to do next. Confusion got the better of me. I did my graduation and never stopped dreaming of achieving what I was capable of. I always had an inclination towards a management role in an organization be it a government one or a private institution. I had many challenges before me. I had fallen prey to procrastination during my graduation and also started to lose grip over my studies. I decided to rise above all my apprehensions and achieve what I was born to do. I inculcated positive changes in my lifestyle. I started to prepare a to-do list to manage time more efficiently. Then, I started to indulge more in physical activities to condition my body to push its limits. I improved my general knowledge by reading newspaper daily. I prepared extensively for management entrance exams and converted a very good college. The satisfaction of being satisfied is an accomplishment second to none. The confidence I gained from this experience will forever stay with me and always push me harder and harder each time.
