PartB :How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far ?
Don’t limit your challenges , challenge your limits . Life throws testing times at everyone , it’s upto us what we make of it .In 2018 , I met with an accident and broke my leg . I saw the doctor and was told that my leg is fractured .I was supposed to be on complete bed rest for 2 months . More than the physical pain , the fact that I was Stuck at one place for the coming two months scared me . The initial few days went fine , a lot of friends and relatives came over to see me .
Within a week , being unable to go out started making me feel restless and quite . A wave of depression hit me .I was missing out on my MBA preparation classes , I had my exam in 3 months and I knew I couldn't afford to miss those classes .But I had no choice but to stay at my place .
Slowly and slowly I let the fact sink in that now this is the situation and I will have to deal with it .I can't let the physical injury hamper my mental state and I began to keep myself busy by taking online lectures and videos , solving mocks and taking to the faculties for doubts .Apart from that ,Music helped me retain my sanity in those times .
Even after 2 months , it took me another 15 days to walk normally . I remember initially It took me 10-15 minutes to come down a flight of stairs , one step at a time . I learnt patience like never before . A lot of time , frustration used to creep in .But staying optimistic and strong in the face of adversities is pivotal to succeed .
