These days...

Its been long since i have written any post..lots of things are happening continuously and most of them can be called "happening"!!.


The major ones include the end of my MBA 1st year turning me into a half MBA..the scary viva which caused my skin to swell..!


the training..and a little hope for PPO..!!


The first year in JBS was good,with the first trimester tough to handle and the next two super light and comfortable..the decent CGPA and wonderful people around..those uncontrollable laughs and those encouraging lectures..sleepy classes and attendence worries.. those continuous complains about administration and never implemented movie plans..!! The shipra..the fest..the farewell..the friends..


And the super scary viva at the year end which was nothing more than the test of patience due long waits as if teachers got the chance for ragging each one of us legally..(though they always have it..!!) but somehow eachone of us managed it without much hassels..and that RUN for the movie to GIP(a reason to wear different outfits otherthan our UNIFORM!!) after this terrible viva session..


CONFIRMATION for TRAINING and the joining from next day excited me..(specially after seeing ROCKET SINGH a day before)


I was expecting no special attention from our bosses..(bosses..sounds..huhh..!!) but daily reporting and sudden calls "kahan ho" made me feel good and not neglected..!!


The SO Caring "they" untill i realized that it is just the way to get your work done..and i had now entered the world of proffesionalism..where everyone expects too much from you as an MBA..Its a totally practical world where people work as machines with a little emotions(for those who are new..!!)


-I realized nothing is more important than your given Target. -There is no value of time specially when you are trainee. -10 mins are never less than an hour. -If you are not able to perform,you are thretened to be thrown(happened with me..!!) this made me realize..what the pressure is and i entered depressing mode almost for a week..!! and my smile almost faded..its still not in place..!!


-I realized its hard to get people working for you untill you have the authority. -"INSAAN KI ZUBAAN HI SAB KUCH HOTI HAI" IS Useless here..where words have no value..tomorrow means tomorrow that never comes.


-Resoning and explanations are of no importance,only the result matters.


-It becomes really really difficult to trust the people around..every word you say can become an issue so just takecare..and speak with no names involved.


-I have learnt,how to meet and talk to managers(CLIENTS!!).


-I have improved my convincing skills..(BUT FOR THIS FIRST YOU NEED TO CONVINCE YOURSELF).


-I have learnt,if you are from a big company,you are respected.(atleast before you..!)


-I have learnt,people hardly says NO..instead they ignore you..miss you calls..or just go out of town for an undefined period (hahh)!!


-I have learnt..carrying CONFIDENCE is the foremost thing.


-I have learnt sometimes,you start lying not out of choice but by chance (may the fear of the one above you)..BUT THIS CAN BE AVOIDED..if you realize it at the right time.


-I have learnt its no more a difficult thing to travel in buses for 4-5 hours to a new place.


-I have learnt,if you are in the marketing and in field..WEAR SHOES..to run..to keep yourself safe..and walk fast..COVER YOUR FACE..otherwise sun will burn you and people will think,you were always the same..!!


-I have learnt, sometimes you need to go with strangers and put your trust..!!BUT JUST TAKE CARE..!!


I have learnt,it doesnt take a birthday to make you a year older but the stress you feel inside..


NOTHING CAN HARM YOU IF YOU ARE HONEST TO YOURSELF..TO OTHERS..THE FEAR VANISHES.. :))




  1. marketing is not about lying and selling..its about maintaining relationships and first believing in your own peroduct..!!


  2. its not about making false promises but conveying an approximation,if not exact,atleast close.


  3. its not about making others wait for so long..but informing them the right time.


  4. its not about cutting the calls or ignoring them but guts to say no but in a right way.


  5. its about meeing new people and leaving a positive image.


  6. its about connecting with the world.

TRAINING WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERINCE..it gave me a feel of an employee!! and I have started loving my college more..where i am protected, safe with lots of friends around me.... NEED A BIG TIME BREAK........eeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaa.....


(feel like shouting hard..!!)
