I am really glad that I am writing my own success story-finally.And I will be really happy if at least one of the person who is reading this article gets inspired by my story.As you can see there was Failure after Failure for me since I started preparing for Govt Exams.

• Approximately 30+ failures.But I should say I had Patience and Perseverance.Whenever I feel very low in life energy or depressed due to my failure and would read some inspirational stories.I started practicing isha yoga to help me with my mind-body-soul coordination for both my physical and mental well being.I used to read success stories of other aspirants in Banking websites.
• I dint go to any coaching class.The only coaching institute for my is “AffairsCloud”-website.They have a very crucial role in my success.The site offers free Notes,free Current affairs,free PDF’s and even some free online mock tests.
• Plus there a option to interact with the staff members and other aspirants like us with whom we can spend time and gain knowledge.Whenever I fail in exam i don’t think I actually fail.I think I have gained experience of what not to do in the next exam.I used to tell myself that there is no such thing as Failure.I think there are only Experiences which guide us to Succeed.
• Dr.APJ.Abdul Kalam has said : “Dont read success stories-it will only give you a message.Instead read Failure stories-you will gain an insight and experience to achieve success.”
• Whatever happens always think positive and send out positive thoughts.Even modern scientists are saying that our thoughts have a certain amount of frequency.So always send out a positive frequency and you will reap the benefits of it 10 times more
• .”A person becomes what he thinks all day long.”So always think of yourself as successful person no matter what happens in your life.It will be difficult in the beginning to change out thought process from negative thinking to positive but not impossible.Once our mind is tuned to a certain level, it will travel in that path and it will amaze you.

My Strategy :

1. Preparation of minimum of 6hrs to max of 10 hrs a day.
2. Be online in AffairsCloud website as long as I am awake.
3. Follow their study plan.
4. Giving online mock tests.
5. Pray to God daily for at least 10 mins daily;If you are an atheist-close your eyes and think of yourself as successful person.
6. Don’t give rise to negative thoughts. & finally
7. Practice, Patience & Perseverance-The art of moving from failure to failure without the loss of enthusiasm !

That’s it friends.

Keep your chin up and proceed towards achieving your mission !!!…

Thank you !!!!
