2012, A year to remember!!!!

2012 it is one of the best year which turned my life.

January  - I realized that I was getting angry for simple things. Started to note down few mistakes in my life

Feburary - Good bye to the company that was turning me into an aggressive manager. I was very very happy that I am not part of it anymore. Well the organisation is good. The best thing I like is the discipline in many departments. But the exposure to American, Europe culture, working methods makes the younger generation difficult to adapt to their self made methods of working. Also I wanted more. Not just a test driver or testing group head after years. I wanted more, CEO :).

March - Took a break from professional life for 45 days. Learnt tennis. My childhood dream. I can now rally, serve and play. I could lose around 5 kgs :)

April / May / June - Joined a Automobile OEM new to India. They believe that the power comes from the skill of their employees and they give perfect training. They gave me books to read for 3 months. Training how to drive cars, and even Excel (advanced course like how to wrk in VBA)

July - Got a chance to visit Japan on my Bday and the first day in my professional life I wore a blazers.

August / Sept - Confirmed that we will be working for a luxury sedan for next 2 years as part of training and then may be shifted to any other departments


October - worked to establish Library for 40 lakhs with only condition that it should be with vehicle dynamics books, NVH and Crash testing. (a very different work). It seemed easy in beginning but it was tough and time consuming. I would say this was the first project that was given to me with just one statement.
I made the rules and direction for the first time.

November - Training by IDIADA. The best and the costliest training I have attended.
12 Lakhs for 3 days. I think that would be half of the total cost spent on my education from 1st grade to undergraduation. he he!!!!

December - Month full of rest. No work. Getting ready to go to Japan. But this time we are going to do some serious business.

But yes I consider this year was the best year that I spent some time thinking and took some good life changing decisions.

I consider being born in this world itself a blessing and I am very grateful to my mentors who made me realize this, in 2012.
