Hmmm … blog time !

There are only few things which help you when you are down, talking to yourself, blogging, brooding over your dreams, your pillow, cigarette and as i usually say, beer !

I may say that i am okie and certainly not feeling that down as i perceived myself to feel like. I was having an intuition beforehand owing to my percentile at the lower end and intuitions seldom fail me.

I have put the title as debacle, is it  surely a debacle ? At the surface level, its so ! I couldn’t make into IIMs, perhaps the best institutes of India where i can be assured of fat pay cheques after two years. I would have got the brand and that brand, that tag would have kept me sustaining for rest of my life. I would have got the chance to interact with best peers and man, like all the blah blah of why IIMs

But on second thoughts, i have realized that IIMs are just as important as i am going to let them be.  Should i say that had i converted IIMs, it would have been one of the many insignificant events of my life, but to appreciate that i should have been to an IIM. Now, when the fascination of IIMs is over for me, its introspection and a time of reality check !

I am not consoling myself, nor i wish to. IIMs are not the end of any journey but yeah the journey to IIMs has taught me many things and i pray that this failure should be teaching me more than a success at IIM would have taught me. Now, i have no brand, nor any tag ! Means, i am not going to be like many of the tagged IIMites. Should i say that its time to count on my own self rather than being handicapped and dependent on someone other. IIMs are easier, much easier way for leading a good, risk free happy life. You can be sure of a future. But still there are better ways which are definitely more rewarding and more gratifying.

I don’t believe in destiny but into opportunities. Luck to me is born from the marriage of hard work and opportunity. I have got the opportunity and now i have to match it with my own toiling spirit and hard labor and then guys,I will be lucky !
