Important decision taken
My life changing career decision was to switch the life science field. Though I completed my M.Sc. in Biochemistry almost people prescribed me to go for Scientific Research.
But I don't want to spend my whole life in a singe chamber, which might be surly a "Chamber of Secrets".
I found Market Research is quite interesting, and the field for which I made.

My achievements
My greatest achievement so far in my career would probably be winning the Manager of the Year award last year. I made numerous operational changes at my branch, including a massive reduction in stock levels - which significantly boosted our working capital. I also drove up reports levels, especially by increasing the quality of reports by implementing the QC steps.
Handling risky decision
Risk is the Part of life, and I Love to deal with risky situations.
"When the project director took a holiday I made the most of the situation and rose to the challenge. In this time I had to decide on the fate of a suppler due to poor performance and commission another one, it was risky because the incumbent knew the company and the new one did not. I made the decision to let the current vendor go and employ the new one. It was risky but I used a risk matrix and the advice of others to make a decision".

Couple of years from now
I want to be a master of Market Research, so I am continuously putting efforts in to developing my skills and enhancing quality of work.
First I want to be an asset for the company for which I'll work.
After around 8 to 10 years of experiences, I would like to register my own MR farm.

My thought on education system in India
Indian education system s$cks, I should be changed. I should be out of the books.
According to me there is a huge need to change the education system in India. The main problem with the Indian education system that the syllabus provided by the boards and universities are quiet boring and students are fed up by studying old syllabus, secondly people of India are too much lazy they do not want to do anything just they want comforts and luxuries in less efforts, no doubt %of Indian students are very much capable of their efforts but a big % of students are do not want to study and enjoy their life.
Rather emphasizing on theoretical aspects practical knowledge should be more focused which would arouse interest of students. Moreover teachers should be interactive. By this at least we can try to overcome some part of the problem.

Influenced by
I am much influenced by "Swami Vivekananda".
Swami Vivekananda once said, “If you have lost your wealth, you have lost nothing; if you have lost your health, you have lost something; if you have lost your character, you have lost everything.” I strongly believe in this saying of Swami Vivekananda. Character makes a human being. A person with spotless and indisputable character is invaluable, whereas the wealthiest person without character is not even worth mentioning. A person of character will attract wealth but a wealthy person cannot buy good character even with all his/her wealth. But, sad to note that people now-a-days give more importance to “money” than “character.” Money has become the “only religion” people worship of late.
