Hello my name Puneet Garg. I am 26 years old and still in ipcc. I lost my parents when i was 22yrs old. I have been living alone since then. I have not been able to clear any group. My problem is that i dread studying accounts as i was really weak in accounts back in school and in B.Com. That problem got carried forward. I am so bad at accounts that i can't even make P/L account. Don't even talk about cost and fm. I never even bothered to study those subjects. Coaching classes hardly helped me. I Cleared CPT in 1st attempt just by luck. I have been in IPCC since 2010. Never gave any exam because everytime i start studying my weak academics background comes into play and i end up tossing my ca books aside vowing that i will study and clear group 1 in next attempt. But next attempt same thing happens again. Its a vicious cycle that i am unable to break. I started ca course because my cousin brother who is tax advisor adviced me to do it. My questions are- 1. Is there any chance for someone like me to ever becoming ca? I don't want to leave ca as i have invested too much time in it. 2. Considering my age and taking into account that it takes an average student 6-7 yrs to clear ca, is it adviseable for me to continue ca? As i will be 33yr old by that time and i don't think any company wil hire a 33yr old fresher. 3.Should i transfer to Direct entry if i want to continue ca? Don't advise me to do MBA as i can't afford it. Please reply. I am very depressed.

Is there chances of you changing your mind set? What are your preparations for changing your outlook towards things?

2. Considering my age and taking into account that it takes an average student 6-7 yrs to clear ca, is it adviseable for me to continue ca? As i will be 33yr old by that time and i don't think any company wil hire a 33yr old fresher.

No one can predict future, but certainly CA will get hired at any age, so dont bother about it.

If you will get depressed, you will get depression, so change your outlook toeards things, forget all your limitations, all our weakness are function of time. Change your thinking & put hard work to create shining future.

All the best!

I will advice you following.

Firstly you are kind of messed up in this course as of now.You need to start afresh with some SWOT analysis.

I strongly recommend you the following.

Develop interest and love for subject ,if u cant then quit.Check what are is ur passion.what are you good at? What do people appreciate you for? What do people thank you for?What is that something you woud do free of cost to someone only cos you enjoy doing it? What would you do if gifted you with 100 million money? These question will locate your passion but make sure those are not illegal

Considering you have developed love for accounting/or anything.

Firstly start in the name of God The only one Allmigthy."In the name God The most gracious and most merciful".Ask him to guide you by looking up at sky or closing ur eyes.

Now Set a Goal What you wanna be out of ur passion.What would you like sell or serve out of the passion and talent you have.Don bother if your passion is unique but just it should nt be illegal or it should not harm someone(For instance Seling cigrattes is legal but if thats your passion,you are harming someone in process by producing it.You could sell it,But Will God the Allmighty help you in ur goal?)

Identify the Resources Required.Meet or Find the people who have walked through the way of your goal.If i would ask you walk through new lonely dark silent street ,What would be your walking process.Wouldnt it be very cautious? Every new street you take you need to ask people who have walked through it...

Focus - Focus is the art of ignoring.Ordinary light illuminates at best.Laser is focused light and it cuts through steel.You can never do 10 different things at a time or infact even 2 good things at a time cannot be done at excellence.

Work Really Really Really hard.

You could be kind of lost or too much frustrated or obessed with your working hard.Take time in the city you live.Feed the poor on streets,Help the needy.The heart will find solace and give a break to your obessesion.You cannnot only take from this world ,you need to give back as well.So that the blessings in ur taking is mutiplied by God

Be consitent.Consistency is the drop that makes an ocean.Even if little keep doing.half an hour a day makes up 180 hours in a year.The tortize or the Rabbit?

Keep your connection with God Going.keep thanking and praying.

Last Persist,have ideas and improve.

Finally Stop not till the goal is achieved.

Good luck
