Take away

The journey of MBA which was once my coveted desire is half done.There were many things which I wanted to do and thought of doing it during my MBA.Few of them were wiped out because of things which were not in my control and few I lost control upon.

The learnings are very few and the setbacks are many.

Learning:

  • You  will learn to manage things around you. The assignments at MBA which are intended to teach you the learning gets wiped out after  few weeks.You start managing assignments , and once you start doing it , you don't feel like doing them until the professor is very strict.
  • Google is the best search engine and excel is the best tool .Experiment with them as much as possible.
  • Try gaining interest in one or the other thing, let it be as trivial as playing badminton, squash, cricket, or finance or economics else wise your whole time will be lost in finishing IMDB top 250,Big bang theory or else in alcohol.
  • Try reading magazines and build on reading newspaper.The habit set out of boredom will take you long way.
  • If you are not short of money, go on exchange program.Either you will have great learning or else the best long holiday trip of your life.
  • You start giving your best only when the task of high importance.
Setback :

  • Once you start drinking frequently, there is  a very difficult chance of looking back.
  • You start wasting your time, Its very difficult to come back to hard work phase.
  • You don't care about grades, once you get screwed in few of them.
  • If you are a smoker, you smoke too much hurting your lungs at a faster pace.
  • You talk too much on things and do very little.
  • Topics like politics, entrepreneurship are most common at discussion which ultimately don't lead to anything unless you are very determined to do something of it.
  • The fees at MBA narrows your learning perspective  and restricts it to just placements.
  • you stop reading good books even though you have all the time in the world.
  • You never go to library to check some quality books only because somebody  might mock you for the same
  • You start performing bad on the things which were your strengths at one point of time in your life.
