Being the son of a single mother, I have had to face a fair share of challenges – economic uncertainty being the most prominent of them. Seeing my Mother work beyond her capacity to provide for me and ensure that I would have a good future, I became determined and developed a resolve to make her proud of me. Due to the situation at home, it was difficult for me to have a social life while in school and I decided to devote myself to my academics which lead to me scoring well in class 10th. In college, I decided to focus on my social skills as I had found that I was lacking in them. I participated extensively in the college club activities and won several events focused on public speaking such as technical paper presentation, debates, and group discussions. This lead to me becoming increasingly confident in myself and I was able to develop myself holistically. I also developed a habit to read the newspaper and keep myself updated which eventually helped me crack my CAT interview with ease. Throughout my life, I have sought out my weaknesses and have improved upon them in an endeavour to become a better and more competent person. I have one thing that I can say that I am extremely proud of – I never gave up. Of course, none of it would have been possible had it not been for my Mother and her efforts, and the credit for my attitude and any humble achievement of mine is all due to her.
