The Story of My Life:
Surprising the mind by proving it wrong is the biggest sense of satisfaction that any person can experience. Life is cluttered with hurdles and challenges. Personal, social and professional situations often deprive us of our chance to realize our dreams and ambitions. The first problem generally is to identify what one’s ambition is.

Challenges-The Flavour of Life
Life often throws at you a myriad of challenges but in every challenge lies an opportunity to make yourself a better human being.I remember one such experience of mine when i wanted to start an adult literacy class in my college. The resistance from the management,higher authorities and the risk that if anything goes wrong the entire blame will be on my shoulders made it a daunting task. But i took up the challenge and against all opposition did start my dream project with around 10 students from the surrounding locality of my college. After running the classes for almost a year when i could see that starting from mere alphabets they were able to fill their own bank forms on their own that satisfaction is something that cannot be put to words.The challenge- the risk taken all seems worth it.

The year 1857 will forever be associated with the ‘beginning of the end’ of the British Raj in the Indian Subcontinent. Coincidentally, a giant was born in the same year, the Aditya Birla Group. Founded by Shri Seth Shiv Narayan Birla, ABG has snowballed into this massive conglomerate, with presence the world over, giving employment to over 120,000 people. One among these fortunate 120,000, ABG itself being a part of the famed Fortune 500 list, in my maternal uncle Mr. Sandeep Kumar. So here is a story of a boy with a wish to travel the world over and how ABG got him ‘moving’ in the right direction.

Never give up | ABG 'Big in our life'
The name Aditya Birla Group resonates with everyone living in India, not only because it is India’s one of the largest conglomerates but because it enjoys brand loyalty from its customer in multiple countries. As a business house, it has five core principle namely Integrity, Commitment, Passion, Seamlessness and Speed. All these qualities resonate with me.

It was the summer of 2013 and I was enjoying my vacations at home for a month before I headed of to start my college that year. We decided on travelling to southern part of India and decided on a travelling schedule. All geared up for the fun trip, we stepped out of the house not knowing what to expect and we surely were in for a shock.
