For everyone the day consists of 24 hours but how we make
use of it makes the difference. To be successful we must master the art of time
management and super specializing in our activities which will bless us with
extracting much from limited resources. Counseling is a fine art and what we
experienced today was above excellence, our faculty for the day was Mr
Divyanshu Agrawal and we felt that this is how an individual should shape
himself as.
The day was initiated by polling about the members who would
go into Consulting (Practice) and Industry (Job). Faculty has started giving us
a perspective about the various avenues open for a CA and breaking the age old
traditional mindset of restricting ourselves only to certain wide spread
parameters (Audit, Taxation etc). For a moment I thought I am in a class
attending lectures on Direct Tax and Indirect Tax but as they say condition
your mind according to the situation and mind will let you have the maximum
from the available resources.
When you start thinking about anything relating to your professional
front even in those moments when you usually don’t, we would surely agree that
the faculty has made an impact and this is what guidance means when they make
you ponder where we are and where we want to be?
Lunch break was the time when not only we were hungry for
food but also hungry for knowledge and medium through which we can do a bit of
introspection. Time management was displayed when group outing was being
finalized in between. Implementation of skills taught when put to practice
showcases our ability of receptiveness.
Post lunch session we were made to share our articleship
experience and what we felt was unless we are eager to learn, nothing will come
our way be it be knowledge or work.” All that matter is your attitude towards
life”. “World is like a mirror it gives you back what you give into it”. When
we were done with our experiences our esteemed faculty provided a glimpse into
his articleship period and life beyond and believe us his experiences provided
us the much needed boost to our motivation levels.
Persistence and hard work pays and moulds us into an
intellectual. At regular intervals our faculty kept on asking if the lectures
were being understood or simply were bouncers. We were of the opinion unless a
batsman is delivered bouncers he would not come back to senses and play carefully,
so it was not bouncers rather the level we should achieve and convert those
bouncers into hook shot.
Faculty has again emphasized on making our passion our
profession but also reminding us that “Never test the depth of water with both
feet”
We were done for the day and a sense of seriousness could be
gauged from everyone’s face and before we could react and look for a snap with
the faculty, he was gone thereby reminding us that if we are not proactive and
timely in our decisions lives crucial opportunities can be missed in this
manner.
We left for our places thinking that “Nobody could go back and
start a new beginning but anyone can start today and make a new ending”…
