There is a saying " Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.". Whether it may be big or small challenges are inevitable in everyone's life. Facing these difficult situations and overcoming them in a positive manner defines the individual's character. Going through these rough patches of life helps one to develop mental strength and emotional stability.

I faced many difficulties in my life, but one of the biggest challenges is to persuade my family about my career choice. At present, I am pursuing my PGDM in one of the premier B-schools in India, but I had been through a lot of hardships to be in that position. I am unable to find out my passion till my B.Tech second year. Then one fine day I am browsing the internet and read an article about Warren Buffett. The article I read inspired me a lot and I started reading about the businesses and share market.

After that, I started to invest my pocket money in the share market by following the principles I read in the books. During this process, I came to know what I love to do. So, I decided to pursue an MBA  so that it will aid my cause. Life is not that simple you can't get what you want that easily. My family wants me to pursue a Masters in computers since I am in that stream. I gave my maximum efforts to convey my interest to them and they were able to see my passion. Finally, they happily agreed to my career choice. It is a happy ending in this case(at least for now).
