How Aditya Birla Group is Big in my life.
“Roti, Kapda aur Makan” goes the common man's saying and the first thing that comes to my mind is Aditya Birla Group, Indian multinational conglomerate. The pride which any Indian carries to be associated with this brand is big. ABG has catered basic needs of the common man exactly the way they wanted it to be. An issue with shopping for groceries in the market- “More” was the solution that made it big. Wanted a taste of western wear-“Van Heusen”, “Forever 21” and so many more to choose from. Fan of simple but elegant wear- “Peter England”, “Allen Solly” have made it big. With 3 billion dollar market value and 400 million dollars of annual revenue in fashion and retail, it goes without saying they have made it big. Coming to “Makan”, UltraTech is India’s largest manufacturer of grey cement, white cement, and ready-mix concrete using which our houses are constructed. When I walk out on the road from my home, I wonder if the concrete provided for the road was of UltraTech. These were just some industries that I could immediately connect to. The list of its big achievements is endless. Hence, to summarize it all, Aditya Birla Group has grown bigger and bigger along the years, just like us. As part of growing up and until now, it has made a big place in our hearts by fulfilling the right needs over the years and will surely continue to do so.
How I overcame my challenges to achieve my goal.
I have always found it difficult to set a time table and follow it whenever the situation demanded. I could always focus on one task, do it efficiently and accurately and move on to the next task. This did not cause many problems during most part of my life. However, while approaching for CAT exam, I did have to balance work with preparing for exams. I was also learning to play Ukulele at that time. I did not want to leave any of them behind. With great ratings, my manager had set high expectations. Additionally, there were personal expectations that I had set on my own. This situation put me in a very uncomfortable situation. I tried really hard initially to take up one task after another. However, the work-life balance seemed to fail. I made a time table and divided my tasks into different timings. Still, things would fall apart, sometimes due to the project emergencies and sometimes due to not keeping track of time. Slowly but steadily, I learned an important lesson of discipline during this process. Now, I set plans for any task and most importantly execute them.
