How I overcame challenges to achieve my ambitions in life.
Life has thrown many curveballs at me, sometimes in the form of a car, but I cannot let them stop me from doing the right thing and giving my maximum to accomplish the goals I have set for myself. For instance, I met with a road accident when a van smashed my bike into the road divider, and I suffered bruises and cut eyebrow because the glass of helmet and my spectacles nearly went into my eyes. Another incident happened when I was 7; having a head-on collision with a car when I was riding my cycle. Such events may hurt physically, but that cannot make me afraid of what life holds for me in the future. I will never back away from a tough situation because if I don’t exert myself, stretch to reach new heights, how will I improve?
Last year, while preparing for CAT examination, I was also preparing for CA exams amidst doing full-time articleship having recently shifted from Delhi to Vadodara. It was hectic; tough to adapt, to the food, the language, and the people’s daily schedule and lifecycle in Gujarat were very different from people in Delhi. I met new people, made friends while studying diligently for both examinations for four months and the hard work paid off as here I am, a student of IIM Visakhapatnam. Here, for the first time in my life, I am living separately from my parents, without their immediate guidance and support, but this is my chance to grab the opportunity of experiencing the life at a B-school and make the most of my time here in IIMV. My past year experience will help me to achieve so.
I have not only learned from my own life experiences; but also, been inspired by my parents’ hardships and the effort they have put in over their lifetimes to have the standard of living they have achieved. I want to emulate my parents and continue to work hard to achieve my goals and have a prosperous professional career as well as amicable personal relations with every acquittance I make.
