My Journey from a Normal life to Sashastra Seema Bal Cadets

It was never an easy decision for me to go for SSB (Service selection board exam- SSB is set up by the Ministry of Defence of India to conduct the interview for recruiting officers in Indian Armed Forces i.e. Army, Air Force and Navy) especially when your soul needs a lot of healing. And when you are already working in a very reputed organization and a very fine job profile there will always be a kind of resistance initially.

It wasn’t a day decision, the clarity to go for it came gradually. I believe it started with let’s give it a thought and increased as the day I filled the form to the day my exam date came and to the date I was standing at the Gate of my Centre, finally clearing all the tests.

Inauguration of Dhoundiyal Block at MCEME Secunderabad- Living moments of my Husband...!

Talking about the first thought I remember; it was when I visited MCEME Secunderabad for the inauguration of Block which is now named after my husband 'Dhoundiyal' Block. SSB gave me a chance to live those moments my Husband went during his SSB.

I felt he too would have gone through similar Adrenaline Rush, Anxiety, and curiosity. I felt years back Major Vibhuti would be at the same spot where I’m standing, it makes me feel closer to him.

Preparation of SSB Exam:

To prepare for SSB was equally not an easy task. Initially, there was a lot of inner resistance I faced but I was glad to have such a supportive family. The next challenge was Time Management as working in corporate, I used to come home quite late at times 11:00 PM as well and leave for work around 10:00 AM, there was dire need to take some time for self-study.

Since my Graduation, I made a point to read at least an e-newspaper. But to prepare for SSB it needs more effort. Whenever I used to be in the cab, I used to Utilise that time to read through some books, listen to YouTube lessons, some other online content and make quick small notes.

Not only Aptitude but right Attitude makes a Huge Difference in your Life

I always heard it is not only the aptitude that matters but also the attitude that makes a big difference, so I knew I have to be positive or if at times it gets difficult to remain positive let’s be neutral at least, but definitely not to carry a negative attitude. So, I started to read some good books and see some funny Cartoon movies, talking more with my family, I also started to write how I felt about the whole situation.

Work out- Morning 7.30 to 12.30- Weekends

One of the most important things that helped me not only to think positively but also to have little more faith and confidence in me was Workout. I started to do some exercise to channelize my energy, my emotions in a constructive manner started to eat a healthier diet. This has also helped me to focus better.

How Maj.Vibhuti Dhoundiyal Inspired you!!

It takes a lot of courage to be like him. I always felt he shaped my world in a better way. But today I like to specifically thank him for helping me to shape it professionally.

1) He taught me how important it is to be more focused on what we want to be in life. During placement, when we all were in the rat race of getting the best package ignoring the fact if we are really passionate about that job or profile, I remember he said 'I can understand you may not be sure if you are passionate about that profile or job but you need to be sure that you are not going for something you clearly have negative views or something you know you never be happy about'.

2) He always taught me If you want to do something, do it today don't leave it for tomorrow. What we have is today utilize it more efficiently. In the rat race we sometimes ignore family and feel we can postpone it some other day. Always remember if you can do it today just do it. But also make sure you don't shed your other responsibilities.

3) He always said & followed a Golden rule 'Always have a purpose in life'. I wish I too can find one.

4) Be dedicated & it's ok to fail sometimes.

On International Women’s Day, what is the most important message you want to send out to young students and professionals
Always have vision and goal in life and one must aim to be self-independent. For doing it, it’s important to upgrade your skillset and broaden your learning curve. And as a human, we all can fail but what matters is Acceptance and working on weak points, a will to try it again.

Don't wait for the end to come, in order to start something new- we just need to break the monotony and start new beginning from the middle of the story”.
