                     Part A :  Know the real deal about your meal!

Food isn't just our daily livelihood,  it's about love, compassion and moreover it gives meaning to life. And  when it comes about life you know what to go for! Healthy Food. So let's  take go back to the days when my "Tiffin box" taste was spelled by a  magic by my kitchen queen "my mum" and that was Foiling wrap. This  product changed the integrity of food upside down. I remember my old  school days when I had my food wrapped in newspaper - oily and stinking.  Being a food maniac that always spoils my mood and eventually what  happens was "Wastage of Food!". Years passed by, classes passed by but  this thing (newspaper and stinky food) remained my constant throughout. l  remember the day when I went to her furiously and said f2f why you want  me to waste all of that food. My mother was surprised as she has no  clue what I'm talking about. Please stop preparing stinking food, it  frustrates me. She smiled and said it's not food son, I guess its  newspaper- she added. Whatsoever it is I won't eat that crap again- in a  irritating tone I said and went. And as Indian mother what her was  reaction - shocked, worried, tensed...! And finally she got to know  about this product Foiling paper- An ABG product.The very next day  unfortunately (ughh) my friends came up to me during recess and said  come-on lets have sharing food day today. And deep inside I was so  disheartened how to run away from them. Some bought maggi, while some  had poha in their tiffins and finally it was my turn to open my box.  Hell yeahhh! And that unfortunate day turned out to the best fortunate  days I remember till date. Aloo Paratha wrapped in that shinning  paper...Ahh that smell still runs through the nose. I ran home with joy,  running towards mum and thanked her for that awesome meal. But cooking  with healthy products isn't everything. All you need to do is give a  little attention to how this food is packed and carried. " Take care of  your body and it will take care of you".Foiling paper is just an  example. There are other products too which I had been using during my  engineering day. Being a Civil Engineer, my relation with cement is same  story as above. ABG products are in touch with me since a teenager, and  I am happy to see that company still has its value maintained and  growth of which is remarkable.   

                                     PART B  Hustle beats Talent 

Yes, you read it correctly. When talent doesn't  hustle, hustle beats talent. And the quotes describes about me and my life. Challenge wasn't usual as studies, challenge were the  people who shattered my thinking, who in-turn made me to challenge  myself. And thanks to all of them, I didn't gave even a single thought  about how mature should I be or about the difference between them and me. All those whispers gave me the answers of those toughest questions which someone could had taken years to sort out. If you really haven't tasted failures, you won't know the sweetness of success. The saying sync with the phases of my life, wherein my own people questioned me whether I am capable of anything. And yes mouths were shattered of all those people when I fianally decided to study away from home, away from everyone who distracted my focus and most importantly my values coz those were my support system through  all these 6 years away from family. The journey to this stage was started after my consecutive lower grades till 10th grade school and people's tag of "immaturity" for me  To know the value of time, none other than struggles will help you realize that. So thereupon I decided to leave me to myself. Through all these years situations came which ripped apart all those day and night hard-work, my dreams, moreover my happiness. But they didn't stopped me from  achieving my next milestone and look where I am, working hard on me and preparing to reach another milestone by joining every bits and pieces I gain through this drive and one of them is this  competition. And finally after all this time, my father broke silence and said, it's the be mature trap of mentality that will take-away all the fun in life. This is my present life, with ambitions mixed with a bit of craziness of childhood. Thank You ABG for providing the platform to share all this hoard in me.
