As I know HIM-Ankit Purohit

There are times when you are down, when the things dont seem to work for you, whenyou want to be something but cannot be, when you find your dreams are flying past far

beyond your reach. It is when you feel like a no one in the world of fierce competition.Similar was my condition when I was random browsing on my Career Launcher SIS(Student Information System) after scoringpathetically in my first mock CAT. Fightingmy introvert self and not being able to decide what I wanted to do, I gave a sigh. Asigh not of relief, but pain; pain of the thought that struck me like a lightning- What ifIm not able to succeed..?? - Am I going in the right direction..?? - Am I thinking too bigfor myself..?? - Should I take an easy way out..?? Should I conclude that I dont have itin me..?? Frustrated, I went back to the SIS where the words: DREAM IT! DO IT! caughtmy attention. It was a motivational session by Sreeni, the co-founder of Career Launcher,

an IIM Bangalore alumnus, and blah blah..!!Leave aside the mans profile; I wasawestruck by his fabulous appearance.Curly hairs, a French beard, and a cheerfulface that carried a dream in his placid eyes.Something I have always wanted to looklike. Without giving a second thought aboutit, I registered myself for the Webinar ofDream it! Do it! which was scheduled for

the next day afternoon at 2 pm, but the restof my day was spent reading about Sreeniand watching his videos. I was badlywaiting for the webinar.

It began with some pedagogy about CAT and the life after a good CAT score. The videoof Nirmal Kumar and his story of reaching IIM-A in spite of being physically challengedand from a vernacular medium school is far more inspiring than one can imagine. Theman is currently the chairman of Nirmal G-Auto, his own company. The video of YouVs Yourself ignites the hidden gunpowder in you and makes you believe that youreworth it. Other videos about legends like those of Sachin Tendulkar, Michael Jordan,Pele, Lance Armstrong and many others were something which I was in sheer need of.After the webinar when I looked at the clock first time, I realized the session lasted formore than 4 hrs while there was no sign of fatigue- while I am notorious for not beingable to take more than 50min. Trust me, Sreeni has the glue to hold u on until he wants.

The experience of the webinar cannot be described in words and now that Sreeni iscoming to BIT- which is quite unheard of- I was so excited that I was the first one tosecure a BBC pass for myself. Now dont decide, get one for yourself and enjoy - flyingwith your wings wide open - a day in B-school with Sreenivasan R.
