Challenges are part of one’s life. Without challenges, life will not be as exciting as it is. I have also faced a lot of challenges in life through which I have learned and grown. Challenges are the hurdles to one's ambitions.

One of the biggest challenges I faced last year was to manage my work and my studies for my MBA entrance exams. I was serving a crucial role in a full-time job with a high dependency on me. In the beginning, when I started my preparation, I found it difficult to cope up with the hectic routine, then one day a thought hit me that if I don’t do it now I probably will lose the one thing that I desired most and is my ambition. I started to become more focused on my studies and decided to cut off my time from other activities like partying, watching movies, traveling. I figured out that a lot of time can be utilized better. I planned to study at those times. So, I started waking up early to study for an hour before going to the office and used to study after office hours. I planned such that the subjects that I liked more, I used to study them in the evening and subjects which required more effort, I was focusing on them in the morning. I utilized the weekends to give mocks and then analyze and scrutinize them for the mistakes done.

Finally, all the efforts paid off when I got selected in NMIMS to pursue my MBA. This probably was the biggest challenge of my life. After this, I believe that when one sees something as a challenge and still work towards fulfilling his/her ambition can never be stopped. One can always find a way to face and grow through it!
