A friend recently asked me a question "what are my 3 key learnings after appearing in UPSC exam?".
I could not answer with clarity. There was so much to dig in. There was lot of substance even before appearing in the UPSC. It was hard to distinguish whether a particular leaning is result of UPSC or belonged to pre-UPSC era. So I sat down and tried to remove some mud and here is what I found.
1. Destiny is more powerful than anything else. You try whatever is possible, if it is there you'll get it and if it is not there, you'll never get it. Hard work and all goes for toss in front of it.
2. You have to keep trying, keep walking whatever may be the direction. Destiny will automatically put you on the right path.
3. A routine schedule and disciplined life style is worthy living. In the long term, it is more joyful than anything else.
4. Real happiness is a reflex of mind. Convince yourself about it and you will be happy. Else, life will keep teaching you same lesson again and again.
