When I look back and introspect about the challenges and difficulties I faced in life, I always find my driving force and grit to be the key qualities that helped me sail through the tough times.
After my senior secondary education, I went to Kota for the preparation of IIT JEE. Prior to that I was a cocooned at my home with all the comforts and luxuries. Then, after some time reality struck me hard on face when I had to struggle on the away ground. It was a very competitive and brutal atmosphere where I had to slog everyday to fight for the D Day. There were times when I was bogged down and depressed but my resilience and perseverance helped me to conquer those tough days.
Even on the physical level those two years were very challenging and harsh on me. I used to cycle my way around the city under the scorching sun with temperatures reaching 50 degree Celsius in Summers to 5 degree Celsius in Winters. I had fallen sick right before my board exams and the going got even tougher.
Like they say “When the going gets tough , the tough gets going”. This was actually true for my case which when I achieved 92% in board exams and under 10,000 in IIT JEE. This shows that if a person believes in himself, his / her abilities and keeps working towards their goal, then no one can stop them and they can touch the zenith.
