My CFA is nearing. I had taken a leave yesterday to study. Today i had to go to ofiice. When i was leaving for office i received Prats sms saying that the GD and interviews for the junior batch are on in the office and someone from each department should be there to answer any queries that they might have.
I went to office and in some time went to the conference room where they were waiting for their turn.
As i walked nearer to the room, flashes of the time when i had gone for the interview came into my mind. It was strange, a year ago i was in the same position as them. So much has changed since then. My life has changed so much, it has reached where i would have never even imagined. Now i realize suddenly, how important this is to me. Sometimes we get so used to things that we start taking everything for granted. This is a dangerous time . Something which takes you back to reality and makes you realize the importance of things in life is very necessary.
As i think of myself in the same position as they are today, a little confused, not sure what lies in the future, i realize how lucky i was to get selected and how lucky i am to be here today at this beautiful place amongst these awesome people.
A rainbow of emotions! Thats what my mind is. Its been a year! How time flies, i feel as if it was just yesterday that i landed in Mumbai and came to the institute, all excited, a little nervous, stepping into a new phase of my life.
Its hard to believe that in another 1 year, it will be over. Its hard to imagine life out of this. I don’t know what i would do. I am a little scared. I don’t want it to end. It is like a dream. I sometimes feel that any moment someone will call out my name and i will wake up and realize, god! It was only a dream. I am sure these are the best days in my life and i am going to remember them for the rest of my life.
But with all this i also realize how far i have come. The energy with which we had come has converted into a calm. The intent of learning and achieving as much as i can had slowly started to recede. But now, i realize that once more. As i recall the frame of mind with which i had come here, the energy and the intent are back. What if i fail, what if i am not successfull, i must try, i will prove that it is possible to balance everything after all. I hope I do!
