Well, I believe that one must have someone to whom they can rely upon and seek a piece of advice which can really save their time, energy and effort. Similarly, I gave a piece of advice to my apple of eye that is my sister. Two months back she passed out B.com with flying colors from one of the renowned colleges of Delhi University and moreover she got a job opportunity from one of the top companies of India. Everyone in our family was so ecstatic and over the moon. But however she was in dilemma as she really wanted to become CA. To become a CA one has to pass through several stages like first one has to pass the foundation exam and then inter exam and then one has to work for two years for an internship and the last stage is final exam. As she has passed the foundation exam with flying colors so she wanted to pursue it further but this job opportunity it shook his decision. However, she gave this opportunity a chance with the thought that she can devote some time to the studies over there. However, she worked there for two months it was really difficult for her to cope up with the preparation as sometimes she might have to work for 13 to 14 hours and moreover she might have to go to the client’s location for even 2 to 3 months so that was really a hectic and demanding job. So she was really not able to devote her time to preparation and she was really furious she shared her problem with me and asked my help and I advised her to let go of the opportunity as there is little room for growth with this much qualification and to pursue her dream. So she left the job and currently she has passed out her inter exam with flying colors and now she is really happy and is at ease and is very happy.
