Hi Rahul,
I am not sure how many in the Group will be with me for what i am writing. i have gone through similar condition and still struggling for final. I am just sharing my experience and if you find anything worth, please take forward it. See, i have taken more than 4 attempts for clearing my PE-II. In the beginning I worked very hard, studied day and night but not able to get through aggregate marks. Then I analyzed lot various situations …. Like if I don’t complete CA then what, how many years will it take me to complete CA… what are the other careers options for me…. From everywhere the picture was coming very gloomy and dark…then I decided that I need to apply practical approach. Along with CA exams, I started preparation for various MBA entrance exams and able to manage the admission at B’ grade Management school. With my MBA , I clear my PE-II but still struggling to clear my finals. On MBA degree, I got job in one of the leading software company and settled in the life properly. Got married at right age(26 J), bought a new house and have planning for lot of things. If I compared with my peers, I am a tad behind with them in terms of money and career progress but saved myself from the situation nowhere on the earth. I always tried to minimize this gap by working through capital market and still appearing for the final exams. I get only 4-5 days leave before exam but still not given up.
I am not against any motivational quotes, no doubts they are important and recharge us but at the same time I am of opinion that one need to draw a line how long he/she wants to carry himself with such quotes/thoughts. It is not necessary that things will always work as per our plan. At one point of time, we need to redefine our strategies/focus area and priorities.
I don’t advise you to think on this immediately as the exams are coming very close. I sincerely request you to focus only on coming November exam and then make any plans.
All the best…..
Regards
