As many of you I have resigned from well-paid corporate job seven months back. Why? Doing MBA and getting even bigger pay cheque and fancy hi fi life. ? story goes like this,
I always wanted to do my work or live my life with passion. I did so. In 2013 I got little deviation in my working style from how I used to work. I don’t want to continue working without any passion or love in it and I always wanted to become a business man. That’s the point I have taken a decision – I resigned. I have put an end to mediocre life. I wanted to do something big. Still I haven’t resolved the meaning of BIG yet. I wanted to take up my dad’s business but to do it in a better way I thought of doing an MBA.
I have prepared from july to oct sincerely to my abilities. I gave cat but I failed clocking 73 percentile. I don’t regret the decision I have taken. There is something called capability and I may not be able to hit that cat target but im capable in many other things.
NCC (National cadet corps) have taught a lot and injected so many qualities inside of me. Now at this point I accept my failure. The most important things in life are – not taking the path of mediocre life, pursuing happiness and redefining you by taking audacious challenge. (getting out of rat race-Rich dad poor dad,book) Redefine is too deep a word, even a beggar today should be redefined tomorrow by the way he begs. He should sing, or by doing some kind of road shows he should earn money. And coming again I have not failed in CAT, I have failed better!! ( from 10 percentile in 2012 to Q-83 percentile V-59 percentile O-73 percentile in 2013). The quote echoed – Ever tried?Ever failed?Never mind!Try again!Fail again!Fail better!! My ultimate goal is not that I have to do MBA, it is something else. MBA was like a tool. And here I am, I am moving on leaving my MBA dream and to redefine myself, saying no to mediocrity, taking up my business pursuing happYness.
[I am writing this not only for my self-confidence, I want all who have failed better to not worry. Let whatever happen, life should go on. Cheers!! Don’t loose ur self confidence, perseverance and focus.](courtesy; some thoughts from Arun sharma sir)
