Transcript
00:00The two years of an IIM achievement is you did not let the system get inside your head.
00:04How did you go about doing that?
00:05Most people excel only when that excellence leads to capital gains.
00:11And that's why so many people stop studying the moment they enter NIT or NIM.
00:17It's not studies fundamentally or books fundamentally or knowledge fundamentally that attracted them.
00:22What attracted them was the prospect of plum placements.
00:26The moment that placement is assured or obtained, the fire dies down.
00:30So that should not be there.
00:31Remain the same person throughout your life.
00:34The same person that had not yet cleared the J.E. but was raring to clear the J.E.
00:40The same person who was sprinting and putting in 10, 12, 16 hours a day.
00:45Therefore you must have a very very high purpose in life.
00:48Choose such a mammoth goal that you always have to be on your toes.
00:53That you never fall complacent.
00:55That you can never give yourself the liberty to say,
00:59Now I am done and I can retire.
