About Me
Undeniably,it is easier said than done to write about oneself. My mind is constantly delving into the past & present to recollect some of my incidents depicting myself. Well I am realizing that the process of expressing myself in words is making me saner. And here I go…………….
“Put to paper for the world to see,
allowing a memory to forever last.
Please bear this in mind and take heed,
these words are someone’s heart and soul,
put to paper for the world to see,
thus making me feel more whole."
I have always been an average student in terms of scoring marks. But my class X result modified me into a bird that
soared higher & higher. Want to know how much I scored?re………NOTHING .
That was the worst result of my life i.e. a retest in Social Science, which I cherish as the most pertinent memory
of my past. Amazed!!!! To know why that failure is the most likable moment of mine. Well because it was my first
failure, leading me to outshine all other examiners by scoring highest marks in C.B.S.E & the preachers,
who under-estimated me. Till then the canvas of my life is filled with bright hues of success. And I firmly believe that
God’s blessings have always cleared gray clouds of my inability & doubt & has made my sky bright blue , proving that……...
"Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you; they're supposed to help you discover who you are.".
Filled with a lot of confidence & urge to work hard I joined correspondence B.Com, along with Tool & Dying Making course to be a Mechanical Engineer. We were taught to make dye. Our instructor would give us a piece of iron to change into die without the help of machines. But I would take it to my friend’s factory where the iron piece was well shaped mechanically fetching me highest marks & hence learning smart work. Though it took me one whole year to realize that mechanical engineering is not my cup of tea. Once when I saw one of my friends working on blue screen, I couldn’t stop myself asking him what he was doing? He replied C++ and explained a little about that, I tried hands in creating small programs and developed good interest, which resulted in firm desire to be a soft engineer & admission in MCA.
Regular faults in computer forced me to learn its formation. Hence I joined hardware course, too from NSIC, Okhla. These extreme changes in my career made my parents contented as their son was getting into white collar job rather than having black face & hand after making dye-mechanically…….
I can never forget my first earning of Rs 1500/- earned from assembling & repairing of computers which helped me in paying my fees for MCA, as I made a point to be independent & bear my own expenses. I would usually travel to Nehru Place market to buy monitors at reasonable price, which I carried in my both hands. Those moments stir me to get-up-and- keep going even today.
During all these courses I never parted with my favourite hobby of body building & teaching. Even today, Whenever, I get time during working hours I practice table tennis & enjoy playing football.
After the completion of all the courses I was ready to be interviewed for job. But, unfortunately I started when market was extremely slow due to attack in New York. I gave 25 -30 interviews at least & got job in a bit small company Tech Solutions, There I understood what exactly the term PRODUCT meant, that was the very small company where we had to do all the things excepts getting the order from the client, requirement, development, testing and in last deployment, we had product ERP, which was in the VB 6.0,I worked there for 2yrs.
Fortunately,then I got opportunity to join a good one i.e. Brickred where I worked as a software developer for 2yrs.My hard work paid & got golden chance to join Sopra as a Senior Software Engineer.
Work competence of three consecutive years resulted in providing me the renowned post of Technical Lead.
A last line from a saner,
"If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill, Be a shrub in the valley Be a bush if you can't be a tree. But be- The best"
