YASH ZONE

It has been a lonnnnnnnnng time since i updated my blog. Welcome again to my Zone.

I decided to post this one, when a few of my friends decided to have a get together. I was made to peek at my past and made to think how I was. I am talking about the strenuous 2 years that I have put en route to IIT. What is its significance now ??

Well... this little sneak peek helped me gather confidence and strength that i so clearly missed for the past 2 years. I was a good student, but didn't know how good i was to crack the JEE. I was never of the feeling that i can't do this. Partly it is because of the success I had in my school days, the confidence I gained with the hard work I put in, the constant motivation from my brother and above all the blessings of my parents. The most important part is the constant look at your goal and think how far you are from it, what it takes to travel the path, smooth or rough, fast or slow. Then you adapt yourself accordingly. Back then, you only had one thing in mind, to crack the JEE.

Now it is nearly 6 years after I made it to IIT and nearly 8 years after I started to set serious goals. I again face a similar task now.....yes after a long time. Why is it so different to what I have done before??

Well for one

Your project guide screws you up and makes you feel a total a** and dents your confidence. You don't know what your future is and what mistake you did to get screwed like that. Very different from being a topper in school.

Two

You work for some company that so under utilizes you, don't know where to place you, don't even know why they recruited you and finally making you feel a total a** again. Very different from the constant support, enthusiasm and awesome preparation during 11th and 12th classes.

And Three

Health, family ..bla bla bla....

What makes it more special, in spite of these additional and completely strange situations that I am in, is the goal to prove yourself again. What is the motivation now?

The very thought of making people's mouths shut.

The very need to raise my own Game.

The attitude of not giving up.

The very fact that I am not a loser to sit idle.

and finally, I know that I can do it.

What is the fun without a little challenge ....... !

I know i have bored you, but thanks for your time. This is the first step in taking my preparation further. Improving my writing skills. A dry and personal topic to start with, but as they say, a start is a start. Now there is no turning back.

I sincerely thank the IC batch, for making me realize what I can do.
