This reminds me of the day when my Dad bought me my first Louis Philippe shirt and trousers just before my first job. He kept telling me that these clothes will remain like new for 3-4 years because of their quality. I remember feeling proud and happy to be owning one of them. Finally, now that I am penning all this down is when I realize the numerous times ABGLP as a brand has touched or influenced my life and so many others.
I have personally come a long way from a boy who used to watch cartoons whole day to a boy crying after not being able to cross 80 % in 10th standard from the teenager trying to figure what he wants to do in life to the mechanical engineer ready to join his first campus job in the IT field instead of doing MS with a huge education loan. Today I have an engineering degree, an experience of working in a large company like Cognizant for 3.75 years and the courage to pursue MBA in Marketing which is a completely different domain as compared to my historical domains. All these achievements were possible because I never gave up nor did I shy away from doing what I wanted to do by keeping all the risks in mind. Living in an outside city far from home in a hostel by myself, doing part-time jobs when required, keeping expenses to the bare minimum were all things that were life lessons during engineering. Work had its own challenges, office politics to drama with girlfriend to spats with best friends, all these moments brought depressing thoughts time and again. A project that made us stay at office more than home, made things worse but now that I look back at all this, these moments made me what I am today by bringing maturity and calmness to my personality. Then came the disappointment of not getting a good percentile in CAT. When I was almost certain of doing an MBA this hit me, but fortunately, NMAT came to my rescue and today I’m pursuing my PGDM from a reputed institute like NMIMS Bangalore and look forward to a bright future ahead.
