There is no learning without problems and challenges. They are the stepping stones to success, they’re something which can help you reach where you want to be. Upon facing challenges, people either sit down and concede defeat or they find out ways to overcome the challenges and gain a victory.
One of the major challenges which I faced in life was when I had to manage both, my diploma and my degree exams.
I had enrolled in a year long diploma in advertising and public relations during my second year of graduation. It started off well and I was able to manage both with ease until the assignments started piling up, which was a challenge to me as managing 2 types of degrees at once was something new to me and I was still learning to manage my time effectively and efficiently. At times the submission dates of my diploma assignment collided with my graduation exams which proved to be a big challenge as I was not used to it. My classmate who was pursuing the same decided to prioritise the graduation exams over the assignments and his grades suffered due to it. I took it as a challenge which I had to overcome at any cost and took it as a motivation to give it my best shot and make the best assignment I could. In the end, it worked out in my favour as I was one of the top performers in my diploma and I also was able to maintain a good grade in my graduation.
Throughout my diploma, I learned alot. I learnt how to manage time, I learnt how to use new softwares and I was exposed to a new form of learning. I now wish to use the things I learnt to meet my ambition, which is to be a management graduate.
