Every aspirant has a dream of getting those 40 marks (obviously in every subject ??) and getting those two words as a prefix to your name that you have been waiting for almost 5 years.
As only six weeks are left to hit the exams, the pressure that is building and creating stress bubble around us would be getting bigger & bigger with each passing day, the only thing you need to understand right now is how to?“Keep Moving Forward"?because the one's who will get distracted right now will be at huge loss in the future.
Remember Why You Started…
The expectations of your family and that look in your father's eyes when you will be called on stage to get your degree on your convocation day, the hardwork he has gone through to pay your coaching fee and provided you the laptop you needed in your studies, the comfy chair you needed when you have to sit for long study hours.
Maybe your family has to forgo their diwali dresses to get you extra study material for your upcoming exams, there are situations where your mother has to work for your prosperous future, she is working in office as well as at home without questioning anything and all these efforts for just one thing that you become something, achieve something and you wouldn't face the hard life your family has faced.
Remember all those who laughed when you entered in CA course and people who laughed when you failed in your first attempt in CA Final and told you to drop the course and do something better with your life.
Proving all those wrong who thought you're a worthless creature and you are good for nothing, do it for your family and for yourself.
The Ones Who Have Failed Earlier…
Re-living the same situation again & again is one of the most hefty things one has to deal with and with time the increased expectations of near ones adds a lot of other pressure that bounds us to do certain things we never thought of when we were starting this journey.
This situation where you would be dealing with increased pressure every day acts as a driving force and enhances and improves the performance of many but on the contrary this leads to downfall for the ones who couldn't cope up with the situation and fail to make things right.
The constant taunts you hear from your friends and its heartbreaking when all of them are getting their engineering degrees, MBAs etc. and you're fed up of their success stories but there's no need to be envious, you couldn't give up right now, this is time that reminds you that you're nowhere near your friends and you have to make this notion wrong.
Once you'll be a CA (your name) they all will come to you for financial advice, how can they save their taxes and multiply their wealth. So this is your time to prove yourself. Nothing comes easy in life.

The Journey Will Be Worth Living…
All the hard work you have gone through, the late nights in the office and then early morning classes would teaches us the real meaning of hard work every CA student goes through and the consistency with which we have to repeat the process prepares an article for the journey of a lifetime that increases the value of those two words.
Even when everyone is partying and celebrating Christmas and new year probably you're still preparing for your may attempt and studying on the night of new year as well.
But these are the things that separates us from the rest of the population and it really means something if you can be among 4 lac CAs in India when we have a population of more than 130 crores.
Your signature will be having a worth more than the Prime Minister's signature. Kudos to all the Chartered Accountants.
This is not the time to Enjoy Holidays
This is the time when everyone is enjoying their free time, going on a trip or planning something but this should not be the reason for your carelessness and if you're thinking that you can enjoy for a day would not create a difference in your results, then probably you're not as serious as you should be.
Take care of your health as if you're not 100 % healthy, its going to get harder for you to appear in the exams.
All the best to everyone appearing in CA Examinations, just 40 days left, prepare yourself by giving your best and leave the rest on God.
Two years ago I wrote this and every word feels true to the gut, this is the timeless art that gave me a new identity.
Share your thoughts if you're a CA student and you can relate to the situations.
Best Wishes.
