Aditya Birla Group And My Memories With It - Shreyansh Agrawal, MDI Gurgaon

I have always been called a very clear minded and level-headed person by people around me. This is because I have generally had a very clear idea of what I was going to do next, be it what my next school was going to be, what I was going to study after school, which college I want to target and what I want to do after that- which was MBA. Now that I am here, uncertainty has started to creep in slowly and gradually. I came to MDI with a very clear direction about what I wanted out of these next two years and where I wanted to be two years, ten years and twenty years down the line. This is not to say I was hundred percent sure that I will be doing that only, but I had a general sense of direction. However, I am no longer sure about which committees I want to join, which stream I want to specialize in or what I want to do in these next two years.

The Unforeseen Auto Crisis - Spandan Bhattacharya, MDI Gurgaon

“What lovely roads. It would be great to drive super cars on these roads.”, this was the first thought I had when I entered through the gates of my graduation college which is VIT University Vellore. I was in my first year when I had the thought of organizing a big premium event in my college. But I didn’t know how to go about it. There were other big premium events that were already being organized in the campus. And so, I had the option of either repeating the same events or coming up with a brand-new event. However, as days passed by, things got busy and I had to concentrate on my grades and other club activities.

Providing Solutions, The ABG Way! - Binayjeet Singh, MDI Gurgaon

The transition from school to college is filled with a myriad of new experiences, and these experiences are often posed as challenges one might in an open and relatively more independent environment of the college. One of the greatest aspects of college life is the presence of student run societies and clubs that provide a wide range of exposure and learning opportunities. Like any other active student, I also spared no effort in deeply engaging and participating with one such group. I directed my attention into the Entrepreneurship Cell of my college and by the second year of my academic journey, I scored a position as the Marketing and Content Head. It is during this tenure that I faced a challenge that required me to think rationally and act promptly.

All The Light We Can't See | Kavan Amin, MDI Gurgaon

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists… it is real… it is possible… it's yours. This line by Ayn Rand has made all the difference in my life from the moment I read it in a college that is redolent with the fragrances of heritage and tradition; Birla Vishvakarma Mahavidyalaya, built with the help of Birla Education Trust. Although ABG and Birla Education Trust are not related in many ways but the values are the same. It was at this college and after it, during which I had my defining moments.

My Anchor - How ABG Helped Me Believe In Myself Again | Dipshika Damani, MDI Gurgaon

“When you really desire something from the heart and soul, all the universe conspires you to achieve it" written by Paulo Coelho in the Alchemist. When I first read this, I thought how would this be possible. How can we just merely think about something and the universe will give it back to us. And then I got a chance to try my luck at CAT and fulfil my dream to pursue masters from one of the premier institutes in the country.

Towards A Greener Future - Anusha Agarwal, MDI Gurgaon

My grand-father always used to tell me stories about his childhood days. How back in the days children used to carry books in jute bags , attended classes under Neem trees, walked their way to schools, etc. Although things change with time but he didn't appreciate all the changes and being a kid I never understood his concerns. When I first read about global warming, the first thought that came to my mind was that “it is just a theoretical concept and nothing like this could ever  happen”. But as I learned more about it I understood the seriousness of the problem and was able to  understand my grand father’s concerns. I decided to do something about it but what can I, as an individual do about it when majority of the people around me are not even aware about it.
