After completing my 12th grade , I was lucky enough to get freelancing remote job in my town which paid me enough to cover my financial needs and also able to help my parents whenever they required financial support. During my Graduation, I did not take study seriously and with help of my job I became comfortable with earning which I had that time. Due to financial freedom, I was able to live my life however I want enjoying watching Anime, Travelling with friends, exploring new fields. Also I am very great full for job that able help me purchased one two wheeler vehicle, my person PC, new mobile and paid for my trips. Also during my 3rd of graduation, I was able to help my father’s medical operation.

All these are good part of my story but one thing that I never realized that I had become more and more dependent on my job and my comfort zone not able look in future aspects.

But everyone know that when God is on your side whenever any difficulties arrives solution also come with them. During final semester, I was able to find another job very comfortable when I required most and that also helped me to purchased AC ,Fridge and clear my parents OD.

After completing my Graduation , I started preparing for entrance exam for MBA but I never tried to look into colleges and their schedules and Fast phasing environment. Because I able to earn money and my life was progressing smoothly.
