Something that inspires me the most about Aditya Birla Group is their CSR policies that help run medical camps, immunize children, provide mid-day meals in 268 schools, skill training for the people, creating model villages, infrastructure developments education, etc. Although it has focused on expanding its business and be a growth company the Aditya Birla group has never forgotten about sustainability and giving back and creating a sustainable business ecosystem.
How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far?
During my second year of college towards the end of the term, I had planned to pursue my MBA and would start preparing for it post my vacations. Soon my third year began and traveling every day to college took me 3 hours by train during which I used to pass my time by watching TV shows or listening to music and I didn’t focus on my preparations for the CAT entrance. Soon the date of registration for CAT came and I hadn’t begun seriously preparing for it. As the days passed by came along a lot of college activities and assignments and my prep for CAT took a back seat. Time passed by quickly and it was the month of September and I was expecting my term exams to take place by the end of September post which I would prioritize CAT preparations. But my term papers were delayed to Mid-October and I realized the mistake that I had done I didn’t prioritize my preparation for CAT. So from that very month, I began to multi-task and balance my studies of my graduation exam and preparation for CAT. I used to study for the same while traveling by train to college as I realized that I had a lot to do and very little time in hand. Soon it was the D’day for CAT in November and I knew I wasn’t well prepared for it but I was determined to give it my best shot but due to lack of effort and practice, I did not have a good paper I was disappointed in myself. Post-CAT I began to sit nearly 12-14 hours a day to study and prep for XAT and due to those sincere efforts I cracked the exam with a good score and was able to get into my dream college XIMB straight out of Graduation without wasting another year for preparing for the entrance exams. This taught me about prioritizing important things and the need for me to manage time well.
