Hi all,
Today I want to share with you all a success story of active JL member against all odds n' adversity. That guy is Mukesh Samota (http://www.jatland.com/forums/member.php?1100-mukeshkumar007) and story is about making his long cherished dream true. And dream was to be an army officer.
Well, for few of us it won't be a big deal but when you achieve something against all odds & adversity, it certainly makes a big deal n' gonna help more in such career.
I know Mukesh for more then 5 years n' we're more of bros then friends and being like elder bro I supported and scolded him many times. He belongs to a lower-middle farming family and completed graduation of his own, working n' studying together. After graduation he came to Jaipur for pursuing his IIM ambitions. He studied hard and also kept pursuing Masters in Economics. He couldn't make it to IIMs thou but one of his teacher (an IIM Lucknow alumni) said, don't feel low you've tremendous caliber, IIMs will regret.
I observed him a lot and found out that this guy is a man of ethics and driven by principles, stubborn n' quite short-tempered & true patriot. One day while discussion I suggested him that you won't survive in corporate world as its full of diplomacy, selfish, unethical n' money minded ppl and their ambition n' vision is to making money only & you're just opposite to them. I suggested him to go for Army instead, after givin' in a deep thought he came to realize that that's the only right way for him n' moreover it'll be beneficial for his long term vision to be a Social Entrepreneur.
He started preparing for CDS and made it to SSB interview every time, he performed really well in SSB tasks like physical tasks, 1-to-1 interview with senior officers but couldn't impress physiologist thus became Border case everytime. Officers quarlled to select the guy while physiologist denied. His Performance been top notch in every SSB he faced. Senior officers praised him couple of times n' said like how come is your vision so clear in such a small age .. most of today's young generation really don't know what they want in their life, you're quite a rare personality.
He kept preparing along with his hard & busy shedule like going to Taekwondo club early in morning to working overtime in office from cooking his own food to studying for his MA exams as well as MSc (computers) & few other competitive exams. He then joined a famous SSB coaching here in Jaipur run by a retd Colonel, he was impressed with Mukesh's zeal & exuberance. He adviced to Mukesh that he should prepare for civils rather than Army as he would be bored if there's no war or in peacetime, LOL :D !
He started preparing for Civils as well along with his final year of MA (Economics), Msc 3rd Sem (computers), CDS/OTA & work out & Office. I said him bhai don't do so much things together or you'll won't be able to cope with such overload but he was confident n' was sure of him and proved me wrong here. Successfully handling all things together, managed to clear RAS (Pre), completed MA (Eco) & reached in 4th Sem of MSc. Also appeared for IAS (Pre) done well. Finally he got a call for OTA SSB early this month from Allahabad, it was his 4th attempt. Went there performed really well there and topped indvidual physical tasks again & this time got recommanded. There wasn't any issue in medicals as he belong to alpha Jat race moreover was working out reguarly.
I felt great to hear about his success, finally he made it to OTA. He set an example here for all that if you're focued on your target and keep working really hard you'll get the triumph sooner then later, no matter what. 3D of success always is Discipline, Determination & Devotion. The Colonel who used to give him SSB training said I'm more then happy for your success. Its better you didn't get selected for very first attempt as you won't be able to get the feel of real Success after so much blood n' sweat. There're officers and True officers, I'm sure you would be a latter one.
It feels great to share his story as he rose against all odds with his firm determation & hard work. Makes him true warrior and certainly he is pride for our community. He certainly set example for our young gen from rural areas that if you believe in urself and work hard no one can stop urself to get ur goal.
I wish him all the best for future and may he get his fav regiment PARA (SF) and bring more laurels to family, friends & for Army & Country.
Salute to you bro .. keep rising n' thriving !!
Cheers
