2.5 hrs can change so much in life...

I have returned to this page after a very long time. But this delay should be attributed to those 2.5 hours of 19Nov when I failed to get my time management right and everything started looking in altogether different colors.

On 17thNov I solved CAT2003 paper and clocked 56. The score seemed good enough and added to my confidence and feel-good feeling. On 18Nov I solved a few sectional tests and felt pretty comfortable and was raring to go on the next day. But alas..

The coming days were spent in recuperating from the shock of utter mismanagement of time and analysing what went wrong. Anybodys analysis will always point towards the areas of improvement and more work to be done. So I reached the same conclusion and indentified few sections where i needed to wrok hard. But all the aspirants who attempted the CAT and performed well had not necessarily done that homework in all those section/areas. And this made me think about the word "luck", which I was evading from a very long time now. For everything to go fine the word "luck" also has to favour you and the has to be yours. But this new discovery and a new belief cannot rule out the work that needs to be put in. So I am again back to my desk trying to get things right.
