Overcoming Challenges_TAPMII am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul—William HenleyLike most of the people in this world I had my own set of challenges in life which I m still facing and steering my way through.Sports: Right from birth I had a genetic disorder of getting frequent fevers which doctors had advised would go on till I attain puberty. This illness tried to make me weak physically but not good enough and I clinged to my love for sports and brought laurels winning more than 31 medals and becoming the sports captain in class 10th and 12th.Music: My parents coming from an orthodox background were never happy with my obsession with music and my desire to learn harmonium. With the help of my elder brother I used to wait late after school and spend time in music room and with me winning various music competitions in school my parents accepted my love for music and today I am a trained classical singer.Studies: I don’t know if it was a challenge or not but my elder brother was good at studies and always received accolades which inherently put pressure on me to do well in studies rising to my parents expectations.“Ye khel kud, dance, music se kuch ni hoga, padhai karni hogi”- this is a common buzzword students of north east often listen. Striking a balance between curricular and extra curricular I became the 2nd topper of my school in class 10th with 96% marks. This built a strong platform for my further studies and even helped in my MBA school selection.Indian girl at age 25 & Marriage:Graduating from college and landing into my dream core company “BOSCH”, I had just started to become independent, earning money, trying things which I was constrained from due to my family’s financial condition.But wait you are in India!

But I knew that these demands would never end.Marriage-->Children-->GroomingAmidst these challenges I was not to sacrifice my dreams of higher education. Preparing for CAT along with 10-12 hrs corporate job was not easy but I knew “ Kuch pane ke lie kuch khona parta hai”And would avoid late night parties, weekend outing’s and snip in time for studies.Finally I am here in one of the prestigious MBA colleges brimming with more number of desires, dreams and conscious about my responsibilities to my family and society. I know the challenges are not going to stop coming but I remember the Agneepath poem by Harivansh Rai Bachhan ji“Tu na thakega kabhi, Tu na Thamega kabhi!!”

Journey so far - TAPMI

Journey so far - TAPMI

I have stayed in different places since childhood. Adaptability was never a choice for me, it was a necessity. There was a lot to learn in the different environments, primarily patience, to understand people and culture. Eventually people and culture broadened my perspective to work in groups and bring in new ideas. I did face challenges to realize what career I want to pursue and I am still in the process of exploration because of my curiosity to learn. I did my civil engineering in Bangalore and then continued with my first year project after college in Nagpur before joining PGDM course in TAPMI. Interest in learning about the different fields and the experience I gained in the process are the two primary strengths that got me to where I am today. Being a fresher, the practical exposure I have is very less compared to my fellow classmates but my flexibility to adapt and learn has always helped me in implementing the tasks given as a group or an individual. After the internship in an IT company, I realized how the corporate world looks like and overcame few challenges when it came to managing my time and incorporated the inputs of my industry mentors. I am still optimistic about working in any field or sector since every sector has its own challenges that can increase the interest and experience that every individual already has within them. ABG Leadership programs like Group Internship Program (GIP), Leadership Associate Program (LEAP), and Leadership Program for the Experienced (LEAD), Human Resources Leadership Program (HRLP) and Finance Leadership Program (FLP) uphold the vision and values of ABG and build on their most important asset-people, to make them capable to conquer the challenges that come their way.

How I overcame two major challenges in my life _ TAPMI

How I overcame two major challenges in my life _ TAPMI

Failure is the pillar to success. Challenges are a part of life. One needs to overcome various challenges to achieve certain ambitions in life. I had to face such challenging situations several times in my life to achieve my goals. Sometimes it was a challenge with the society and sometimes with my own self. The first challenging situation that I faced in life was getting into an English-medium co-educational school. Coming from not a very high-class society, and being a girl, the society discouraged my parents to admit me into any English-medium or any co-educational school. My parents, however, went against the stereotype mindset of the people and admitted me to one of the best schools. I was challenged at every step of from then and fortunately with the help of my parents, and my constant hard work over the years I passed out of the school as the school-topper in my final higher secondary board’s exam.
