But most of all I think the most significant experience I ever had with any brand under Aditya Birla Group would be with Allen Solley. I had an interview scheduled for a job, although I had decent formal clothes, I thought I should buy a proper suit to look more professional. Having a lean body structure makes it excoriating to go for shopping and specially buying formal clothes. Any brand I looked up to only disappointed me because either it didn’t fit or they didn’t have my size. I was literally scrambling from one shop to another when I came across Allen Solley in a Pantaloons outlet. They not only had my size but the fit was perfect. I used to laugh at the idea when people talked about power clothing, but that day I experienced it. I have never felt so confident about myself during an interview and it had a lot to do with the clothes that I was wearing.
Q2) How I overcame challenges to achieve my ambitions in life so far?
Ans) I would say that from a very young age I have been ambitious and driven about the things that I want. I keep room from knowledge and it is my curious nature that wants to learn and know about everything and anything that has made a difference so far. If I talk about challenges I would say nothing works better than being prepared for it. But there are many times when things get unpredictable, during those times my patience and endurance has worked for me. I have always had a positive attitude towards situations and never lost faith in me. To put it in the words of Khaleesi “Do you know what kept me standing through all those years in exile? Faith. Not in any gods, not in myths and legends. In myself. In Daenerys Targaryen”
I truly believe that if you trust yourself to be good enough others will see it too. But if you doubt yourself then others will also see your flaws before you.
Usually when I come across any challenge, I begin by listing pros and cons of any situation, give importance to each element, evaluate it and then make any decision. I rely a lot on my own experience and intuition than external advice if the problem concerns me personally.
And even when I have failed, I try to find silver lining even if there is none. The only thing that keeps me going is life, knowing that I get another chance at life and I am alive, is the most powerful feeling and the only motivation I need.
