PART A:
Why Aditya Birla Group is big in my life :
Aditya Birla Group, founded by Seth Shiv Narayan Birla in 1857 is an Indian MNC. The group which started trading cotton in the ’90s has now become a conglomerate of a number of subsidiaries ranging from Fashion to Financial services.
The Name ABG has been a big part of my life for a long time, whether directly or indirectly. I have been a consumer of the products that the group has been producing right from Pantaloons to More Megastore. My family has a ritual of going to More Megastore every month for grocery shopping as it has a wide variety of products adorned on their shelves. All my fashion woes are also solved by shopping the diverse clothes and brands at Pantaloons.
They have played a key role in amplifying alternatives by bringing foreign brands like Allen Solly, Annabelle, and Peter England to the middle class of the country. The trust that the company has gained over the years from various families across the country with its quality service and products is untouched. The group has tremendously grown over the past decade and a half, providing customer satisfaction at every step of the way. Aditya Birla group has also lent a hand in the development of India. Companies like Aditya Birla Group provide opportunities for MBA candidates like me to leave a dent in the country.
PART B:
How I overcame challenges to achieve my ambitions in life so far :
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Challenges are the most exciting part of our lives. When faced with a tough decision, it makes you question your morals and pushes you out of your comfort zone. And in overcoming those obstacles, we keep learning and growing.
In my 21 years of life, I have faced a few challenges. I was an extrovert who participated in every event at my school. By the time teenage came around, the nerves started to kick in. I was afraid of people’s judgment and crippled with the fear of failure. I became an Introvert and lost my way in communicating with people. I preferred to stay alone with my thoughts and in my comfort zone. But I always had High hopes for myself and what I wanted from my life. I discovered the habit of reading. Going on different journeys in the perspective of a character, fighting battles with dragons, making friends that last forever, I learned to be fearless.
Fearless of the world around me, of the judgment and criticism. I understood that people around me are just like me, everybody has their own inhibitions and insecurities. Life is a battle you fight every day. I learned to have faith in myself and be Kind and understanding towards others. Now I strive to be a better version of myself every day.
