Re: Cornerstone Series PIII: Defining Moments
There are 2 defining moments in my life when i had to collect and redefine myself from the brink of failures to success.
I have been in top 3 or 5 during school days until grade 8, then i think thats where i started downward journey, got average one A+ in chemistry and rest all in B. in FSc got again average grades enough to get me to BSc, where i done worst of my career gone below average and hit the C and D's.
Watching all this my father asked me if i really want to continue like this then its better you join Rangers as Inspector he had sorted out this for me.
and really that was my definig moment, cause i hated to be such position. I tooke one week to decide what I need to do, re appeared in BSc exams, got good grades this time.
Got admission in MSc Chemistry, and Computer Science but opted for CS. and Thank to Allah I really got into and became high acheiver in almost every module i came across and i never looked back. That grades paid off and I was offered a high flyer job in my last semester.
Second came in my second Msc in UK when i was dragged down by few asian student around me, getting D in one module raised alarams, and i stricktly stopped group studying with them cause i couldnt do much and wasted time by explaining them basic concepts.
That also paid off and I completed final thesis well in advance, though it was hard because one of them really accused me that I didnt help him and he completed Msc on last chance in 5 Years instead of 1.
Now I think i need 1 more to leep forward in my career.
