Looking back at my life, growing up I always felt I was being held back because of my own laid-back attitude. I also see a kid who was scared to stand out. We hear stories every day about how people achieve big things by starting to aim high in their lives. But somehow, I didn’t realise failing recognise the innate impact of bad attitude and how it gets translated to how I approach things in the outside world.
To be honest, I lacked the ability to set a goal for myself. So, after graduating from school I embarked on a new journey of becoming an engineer. But my problem at the core was still the same. I used to procrastinate my duties and responsibilities when I was in college but I soon realised how negatively it was impacting my career. That was the moment when I started to gradually turn myself around and bring about a change in my attitude. It had an immediate impact on my academics, I observed that my CGPA went up for the remaining semesters. I also saw a change in my approach towards the small things in my daily routine. A task which I wouldn’t even pay attention to started to catch my eye. I realised the challenges I faced were only inside my head and they could be overcome with a little amount of effort for my own betterment. I started giving myself deadlines to complete my tasks in order to overcome my habit of procrastination. The results of my effort were visible by the end of my college life as I was placed in Capgemini during the last year of my engineering and things have only gotten better from there. Today, I am pursuing my MBA from Goa Institute of Management, one of the top business schools in India.
