Never fall back, Life has better alternative for you!
I come from an Army background. My father served the Indian Army for almost 30 years and that is why since childhood I had a strong inclination toward joining either of the three forces. Post my schooling, I tried for NDA twice but could not convert the opportunity. In my first attempt I got rejected on the 1st day itself because of my nervousness / over-consciousness and the second time I got out on the final day on medical grounds. I was shattered and devastated at that moment when it got clear that I cannot join any of the forces because of the myopic vision, which went out of tolerance limits.
I realised that there is no point mourning behind the thing that I can’t change and so I joined an engineering college, but it wasn’t any ‘IIT’. I felt as if I haven’t achieved anything in life and that hunger was getting stronger inside me. Post my engineering I got descent opportunity to work with one of the senile banks ‘Bank of New York Mellon’ where I served for around two years. Post BNY Mellon, I got a huge opportunity to work for the world’s third largest bank with the capacity of a senior software engineer. Life was going well but still my hunger wasn’t satisfied rather it got intensified and after working for around a year more I realised, what was supposed to be my next leap. I started preparing for CAT while continuing my corporate journey. Year later the day arrived when I got a call from a management institute, and this time it was an ‘IIM’. Indeed, there was a proud feeling inside with a pinch of satisfaction.
