Never liked taking decisions... I know it’s a sign of mental weakness and decisiveness is the key to strong leadership blah blah blah and more blah...Sue me...
I like to sit on the fence... The fence is a good place to sit... It’s a lil uncomfortable but then Id rather be there and watch both sides than jump on one side and never know what’s happening on the other...
Another reason I hate decisions is that when faced with a choice, I always chose the one which makes no sense...
I did my undergraduate from REC Jaipur in Mechanical engineering even though I wanted to be an electronics engineer. And was offered a seat in electronics in REC Bhopal...
Reason - I thought life would be a lot chiller in Jaipur as most of my moms family is settled there...
In the end it wasn’t all that bad coz the reason I wanted electronics was pretty screwed up too...
Reason - I thought as an electronics engineer , I’d spend most of the time in Air conditioned places as opposed to a mechanical engineer who has to work on the hot shop floor (told you …screwed up reason)...
A few years later, I got myself an admit in IIM - I ... Given that I really really wanted to do a MBA, and had worked quite hard to clear CAT, I was quite pleased with myself. But then decided to pack my bags and leave for Brighton U.K instead...
Reason - I had never been abroad before (apart from that trip to Nepal my dad keeps reminding me of, but I have no memory about)... Plus I was told you get like 50 different types of beer in England... This I had to see to believe...
Of course the biggest decision of my life was to join ISB. For the first time, I was dead sure about something... Of course G tried to shake me up a lil and asked me to think really hard before throwing all my hard earned money away and join ISB for the proper reasons... Well they were proper all right...
Reason - I didn’t really work very hard for this money ...And what else am I gonna do with all these sterling pounds anyways...
So till date , I have an undergraduate degree I didn’t want , from a college I shouldn’t have gone to. Do not have the two all important ‘I’s on my resume and weep like a sissy girl everytime my bank sends me a statement…
Am facing another choice … a Big one … Huge one…Life or death kinda ... Well not really … its just a career shift decision … Wish me luck …
