Overcoming Challenges And Turning Them Into Opportunities - Rohan Bhatia, NMIMS Mumbai

January of 1993 was a tumultuous time for Mumbai. The city's peace was being held captive by brutal rioting. Hostilities had escalated and tensions had peaked to an all-time high. It was during this time, one cold night in January that my mother gave birth to my twin brother and me. My brother and I had entered the world with our immediate surroundings in turmoil but at the time, our mother couldn't have foreseen that more menacing and deeply personal chaos awaited us. Two years later, our father passed away and my mother was left alone to raise two children all by herself.

I have seen many challenges at every step in my life. My key to overcoming these challenges is a strong mind. My ambition has always been to become a successful manager and I belong to a place where people don’t even know what an MBA is. The first major challenge I faced in my life related to my education or career was when I changed my school in 8th standard from Hindi medium to English medium. It was not only the change in the language of learning but a very big change for me as my entire family shifted to nearby town from our village for this.

A Long And Challenging Journey To An Elite Business School - Sanchit Jain, NMIMS Mumbai

I have always strived for hard work and dedication in everything I do in life. I also believe creative ideas can change the world. When I started to prepare for an MBA, I was also working for an IT MNC firm. I made my goal clear to focus on my MBA preparation without compromising on the quality of work I do at the office. My manager figured this out and he started asking me to stay back for extra hours to ensure that I do not leave the job to pursue an MBA.

It's Only The Beginning - Himani Kakkad, NMIMS Mumbai

Determination, accompanied by perseverance and hard work guarantees success. I have seen my father translate this attitude into his business successfully which inspired me to aim high and always work hard to achieve my goals. But this was not an easy path for me. My biggest challenge in life has been an internal struggle to accept the failures I have gone through, learn to deal with them, and find a way to redefine my goals and achieve them.
