Its been 2 months into IIM Lucknow. Its been the most hectic 2 months of life. The cloud nine feeling of making it to IIML, has been subsided completely by the realities of where I stand in the crowd now. Its the most competitive world that I have seen so far, and I am just a close to average guy in this world.
The learning's has been immense. Defeats even better.
It was committee results today. I failed to make it to MCC, which I pursued till last 25. Agreed I could have done far better to make to the lot. The bad thing about my efforts was that they were not genuine. I lacked self confidence. Even more, I lacked the perseveration that was essential. I could have easily followed the Messcom task and could have made it to the list if only I had not wasted time after mid terms. It was the same with Bhavishya. I lost because I didn't deserve to win.
Life has changed big time after making it to IIM. I can no more brag of being the topper in academics all through my life. For I am a guy with weak academics among the crowd of IIML. Its time for me to realize my weaknesses and start working towards them. I dont wanna be just another guy after making it this far. Bygones are bygones. I resolve from today to work with more vigor and more serious then ever before. My target will be to score 7 cgpa. I don't know how realistic this is. But by what I know for now, its very much possible if I can put every effort that I can.
