Challenges are the part and parcel of life. A life without challenges is as good as football without Messi or tennis without Federer. Success without a challenge never tastes sweet. It is almost impossible to find people who didn’t face challenges in their path to success. Challenges bring out the real champ out of you and being a god-fearing person, I can say that God only throws that much which he knows you can take.
I hail from a well-known dusty town of Kota, popular for the bad reasons amongst the student community. Almost 70% of my batch mates in my undergraduate college came to study in my hometown. And most of them took some of the best memories from Kota and left the bad ones here in the city lake. For me I still have them safe and secure with me and whenever I step here at the "coaching hub", they all come back and haunt me in different ways. But I question myself here - why the negativity. Many of you might be able to relate with me when I say that the toppers of their respective schools getting slogged into the 30th batch of a "bright" coaching. That shatters your confidence - by tenfold. Hey if you still can't relate with me it's okay, "everyone is unique". That's what I used to hear whenever someone consoled me and motivated me to study. I think it's time to stop the negativity.
While I write this article sitting in MDI Gurgaon, you can assume that I got over above all of that and I consider that to be an achievement to be mentioned here in this space. I overcame all of these hurdles with constant support of my parents and friends who made me look at the right side of me and restored the lost confidence in me.
Aditya Birla Group having its roots in Pilani - a village close to my heart. I spent some of the most peaceful months in that place doing my internship in CSIR, Pilani. But that's not the only reason for Aditya Birla Group to be one of the awesome conglomerates in India. It has its feet in different fields. From Agribusiness to textile to telecommunications, ABG is everywhere. Heard of Ultratech cement - comes under ABG. Ever bought a cloth for stitch from Grasim showroom - ding ding ABG. Use a Vodafone sim in India?? - you are part of ABG family.
Being a top conglomerate from India - from Pilani for that matter, ABG shows me that no dream is too big for anyone. You can achieve anything and everything in life irrespective of your origins. To have seen major depressions, recessions and still stand tall amongst its competitors. This is probably the biggest way this great company has made a deep impact in my life. Lastly, I would like to thank ABG to give me space and opportunity to write my thoughts out and be appreciated or criticised for them. Last but not the least I would like to end with a motivational quote and apologize for being a little pessimistic in my article:
“Every expert was once a beginner. Never fear from failing!!!”
