So today, I had an interesting day at college. A good 3 hours spent introspecting myself. It all started with analyzing different personalities of people. Apparently a mix of 4. The activist, the theorist, the reflector and the pragmatist.
A question that cameth in the brains of mine; what is the right balance of personalities that a person need to have to be one of the few who are extraordinarily good at what they do or have excelled in their respective fields.
An obvious answer to it would be a perfect mix of all 4. Easy to achieve ? Hell no. I mean, no one can develop a personality trait overnight. It takes time and moreover I would say the company a person has around him/her. Taking an A-grade B-School student's case for example, I have always noticed that these guys after passing out or even during their time in school have a flair in them or rather develop over time which never existed before. The hunger to succeed and kick some corporate ass is awesome and inspiring.
The "B-School expierence" as I would call it brings in the change within oneself.
To be honest I never wanted to do an MBA in the first place nor do I still want to, but then there are days like these which give you a small peek to what you can actually do and what you are capable of. Make a genuine effort to change and get aptly rewarded or be the same, get yourself a degree and still, suck it.
Not that I encourage everyone to go B-Schooling ; if you have it, you know it then you dont need it; in my opinion, the experience that comes with it is what I would recommend. You definitely change when you interact with the 'geniuses', the 'experienced' and yes the 'dumbfucks' too.
Studying sucks, it always has.
I still have around 3 years to go before I pass-out and hope to see a lot many days like these.
PS: I still dont know if I want to kick some corporate ass :P
