My path of becoming a Chartered Accountant

Born in a lower middle class family, perhaps this is the best achievement which I ever achieved. Thanks to my parents, brother & sisters, god, teachers, friends & well-wishers.

Special thanks to my father & mother
My Father (My spiritual guide)
 One who imparted in me the knowledge of devotion, hardworking, innocence, truth & love.

My Mother (My first teacher)
One who imparted in me the knowledge of patience, management, self-belief, independence & love.

Herewith I’m writing 10 memorable events of my life:
1.       12th august 1990, the most important day of my life, because on this date I saw this beautiful world for the first time.
                                                         Thanks to my parents for giving me the best gift i.e.my life.
2.       In class-vi exam I answered a question by copying it from my friend, when I returned to home my brother asked me have you answered this question? I said yes, then, my brother asked, tell me the answer, I said the actual fact. Then he scolded me and said are you not able to answer the question without asking it to others? From that date I promised to study hard and answer the entire question in examination with my own ability.   
           Thanks to my brother for making me self-dependent.
3.       In class-vii exam I slipped to 34th position from 5th position and got 2nd class in board examination while my friends who never read for an hour in any single day got 1st class. When I admitted to class-viii in our high school there are other students from 2 more primary school other than my own primary school. I asked myself what the position I’m expecting at this school. Then my heart answered, I’m actually a good student, and if all the students perform as per their potential, I may be positioned in between 10th to 15th rank and I got 5th position in class-viii examination.
                            Thanks to god for giving me self-confidence.
4.       In class-ix half yearly examination I got the 3rd position and I was just one mark behind the 2nd position. After declaration of result I rushed to office room and told to my teacher, sir my mark in science paper-ii is 2 numbers less than the actual which I supposed to get, my teacher said if you are so eligible then show your talent in final examination. I returned home and studied hard and eventually I got the 2nd position in final examination.
                   Thank to my teacher for making me determined.
5.       After completing  class-x  I was planning to study science so as to become a scientist, but my brother  told me to study commerce because our family can’t afford the cost of education and I said yes.
                                                               Thanks to my brother for the decision which changed my future.

6.       When I was in +2 & +3 my tuition fees was just Rs.150p.m, still this amount is bigger for my family and I was unable to pay the fees timely, at that time my teacher said don’t worry for my fees concentrate on your study and pay my fees when you can, then I decided to study hard to get 1st position in my college so as to please my teacher and god blessed me that also, I became the topper of my college.
Thanks to my teacher for his kindness & faith.
7.       In the year 2009, I mistakenly filled the CPT examination form by pen rather than in pencil and I was unaware about the mistake, one of my friends (BIJAY)  who is also preparing for the CPT examination noticed that and brought it to my knowledge. When I knew the mistake I started crying, because the cost of the form was Rs.800/- which my parents had arranged by selling grains. Now from where I will arrange the money? My preparation was good and I was confident but without money my total effort may go waste! At that time one of my friends (SONU) who is also preparing for the said examination gave me the required amount by lying to his parents. Now I have the money but how to get the form? because for the form I had to go to Bhubaneswar and which is not possible for me because there was my internal examination of +3 on the  very next day, what to do? By god’s grace my friend (ALOK) was there at Bhubaneswar for bringing CPT form for him and I made a call to him, he replied that he had already left the institute and on his way to return to Banki (where we lived). After sometime he called me back and said doesn’t worry deposit the amount in my uncle’s bank account and I will bring the form for you on the next day. I said what about the internal examination? He replied I can clear it in next attempt, but there should not be any obstacles in your way.  We appeared for the CPT examination in the month of December, 2009 and only I was able to clear the examination. My friend’s don’t even try for the 2nd time; perhaps god sent them for me.
Thanks to my friends for their sacrifice.
8.       When I was preparing for my CA final I felt the necessity of a laptop and asked god, I have no money to purchase it, from where I can arrange it? three or four days after one of my friend  told me that he had arranged a laptop for me! again I talked to god, that I want to live alone in my rented house till I became a Chartered Accountant (because my strength is, I'm best in study when I'm alone) and, fourteen or fifteen days after my roommate left the room!
                                                                       Thanks to god for being present at the time of need.
9.       When I cleared my Group-II of IPCC, one of my teacher distributed sweets on behalf of me and coincidentally when I cleared my Group-II of FINAL, one of my friend distributed sweets on behalf of me.
                                                                                               Thanks a lot for their love & affection.    
10.   16th July 2015 the day on which I achieved my dream of becoming a Chartered Accountant.
                         When I needed something, whether monetary or non-monetary support, apart from my family, my friends are always there to support me, every friend who came in my life had contributed towards my success. From the blessing of elders & love of youngers I proudly say I’m a Chartered Accountant.
                  Thanking you All.
