“You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it”.
True!! Isn’t it?? Fashion is a constant presence in a person’s life. It is a daily task of choosing what clothing to put on your body for the day, and it is not only used to protect modesty, but it is used for self-expression. In my case I had lots and lots of modesty but my fashion sense was completely lifeless.
What I wore was not in the slightest degree awful however not very great even, out and out, simple and boring!! Also, think about who my style master at that point, my mom was. You can identify with my condition by looking at the image beneath:
Agreeing to her choices my closet began getting to be dull. But colorful bright days for my closet were not very far. ;)
One day me and friend while wandering in shopping center, came across a shop, PANTALOONS!! In spite of the fact that I had I had heard about it a lot, I never found a suitable occasion to go there. As we headed inside, our eyes were totally hypnotized as it saw a plethora of new style patterns and dresses. In whichever direction I moved my eyes I found stylish outfits. We shopped a ton that day. From that onward my fashion taste has changed. Thanks to Pantaloons. Pantaloons, a division of ABFRL has always been one of the most loved large format fashion retailers in India but to my bad luck I gave attention to it just few years ago. L
Pantaloons is today the fastest growing large format retailer in the country. The rate of new store openings has increased from one every two months to one every two weeks. The brand is now present in 78 Indian cities / towns.
Aditya Birla Group with its different brands, for example, Van Heusen, Allen Solly, Peter England and Louis Philippe has made a transformation in style. For my MBA interview at IIFT, it was of most extreme significance to dress appropriately. I purchased my formals from Allen Solly. The manner in which this attire matched my personality, it boosted up my confidence. And as I mentioned in the starting I achieved my dream of doing MBA from IIFT as I dressed for it.
Before ending my story there is most amusing part which should be told, today my mother has a greater number of outfits from Pantaloons than me. Haha.
Aditya Birla Group's essence in my life will be until the end of time.

Since youth I was savvy in maths. As an outcome of these, I pursued engineering. At that point I was chosen in 'On campus' recruitment at Tata Consultancy Services In the meantime I likewise needed to seek after M.B.A. Incapable to choose what to do, I took the path of least resistance and joined TCS. Even After the good profile and workplace was so great still I felt something was absent. Some way or another I was losing enthusiasm for the employment. The Reason was my dream of pursuing MBA. This was the first occasion when I confronted challenge in my life of choosing carrier path. At last I chose to go for MBA. Now the real challenge began.
In 2016 I showed up for CAT first time. At the same time working in office and studying for CAT, I didn't get much time to study and test turned sour. Disheartened I lost hope and began working again dis-interesting. It was in end of 2017 again I understood that I can't live cheerfully by relinquishing my dream. In any case, not getting good marks in exam was by all account not the only obstacle I was confronting, I didn't have my family support either for seeking after higher education.
I come from a middle class family and burning through 20 lakhs in education was something my dad was truly against off. He stated, "I made you stand in your own feet and my duty was until you find a decent job and got chose in TCS and now overlook this MBA and do continue with your work. I am not going to sign in any loan paper for such enormous sum." This expressions of him demotivated me a ton. Just a single individual gave me motivation, mental fortitude and inspiration to conflict with his words and endeavor harder to satisfy my dream and that was "me".
This time I didn't gave 100% yet 1000%. All I knew was to crack the exam this year at any rate. The dread of failing this time gave me certain inspiration. I applied every one of the lessons I learned from my past disappointments. It was 'Achievement originates from the perfect balance of Passion, Discipline and Hard work'. Without these 3 things you can't taste the achievement. As Passion was at that point there inside me because of which I never gave up on giving exams. The principle fixing this time was DISCIPLINE. Individuals neglect to understand its significance. Regardless of how diligent work you do on, if you are not regular it’s all in vain.
Toward the end I came out with flying colors and got admission into one of top head B-Schools, IIFT. The day I got offer letter from IIFT will always be significant to me. My dad came to me and said," I am proud of you". In my entire life first time he said those line to me and it's still crisp to my ears. Furthermore, today I am living my dream of doing MBA and that too from IIFT, Delhi.
I learned new lesson from this battle, "Nothing is impossible" and "Never Give up on your dreams".
