No, I am not talking about Sharukh Khna's production company. I am a regular viewer of MTV. Every week they select a person from the youth of India as a “youth icon”. Now this person is not an ordinary in terms of his ambitions and deeds. He is the one who has really done something on his own and has the capability of turning the world upside down. One thing which amazed me most was when asked to say something to the youngsters of India all of them had only one thing to say "Think Big". I felt like it is some mantra or some kind of black magic which always works for any one who follow it religiously.
Dreams are not those which you see while sleeping, Dreams are those which don’t let you sleep.
I completed My MBA, did job, took a break after my marriage as wanted to give time to my family. After few months even though felt like "let’s start with a new job" I was not sure whether I would be able to manage every thing. I mean tight schedules, deadlines, home, cooking and eating healthy u know every field requires perfection in it. Thinking all this I finally dropped the idea of working and got my self indulged in my hobbies like writing and reading. Even after having now so much of the leisure time I was not able to enjoy it. A constant thought which bothered me was that I am not utilizing my abilities to the fullest. I always wanted to do something for which I am made for. Of course writing always gave me immense sense of satisfaction, but may be that’s not enough for me. I know I have much more to explore within myself.
Then I really concentrated upon this mantra of "Thinking big". Although there was no options, no paths, no clues of how it will happen but I kept telling myself that all of them are there right in front of me. I wanted something where I can manage my family, my work, my hobby without blaming anyone of them for the other. And you know what? This Black Magic worked for me as well. 2009 gave me the gifts which I never imagined. I was been offered by a company Xtremeheights, to join them as the Relationship Manager. And the best part was that I can work from home. I was totally aghast thinking how my dream has worked so accurately. I was been given both designation and time for my family and now I think that I am able to manage everything more perfectly than what I did when I had ample of time. I think that the best comes in the scarcity.
I was more than happy, but was not confident about the responsibilities. As soon as the thought started creeping inside me I chopped it and once again told myself I am the best Relationship Manager been ever selected in any of the company. I am proud to be a part of the Appointy which is a produst of Xtremeheights only as the company not only grows but let us also grow with it.
Now as my orkut link says besides being a home-maker, writer I am a relationship Manager too. Yes guys, the formula work every time. All you have to do is to make your self believe that you are the most deserving candidate for the opportunity. I totally agree with the words of one of the honorable ministers of India that low and negative thinking is a crime and the one who entertains it, should be punished. You know who he is, Mr. APJ Abdul Kalam.
What are you waiting for? Your life has limited chapters; let’s carve each one of it with the golden pen.
