What Inspires Me.. 

"Life is so much brighter when we focus on what truly matters."

Life is long and you can't always have one thing to inspire you. At each stage of life we have something that inspires us to move forward in life. Without any goals ,our lives are useless. I have been inspired by many things in my life.
With time, my inspiration changed but the goal remain unchanged, that is to be successful in life.

My childhood was normal, TV, Games, Friends,School, I just wanted to enjoy life then. Then in my high school,I began to develop interest for physics and chemistry. I would enjoy doing chemistry experiments  and also tried some of them at home. And my friends would call me a "Scientist"(sounds funny). I would laugh at it. But I did imagined me as a scientist in those days and hence would study these two subjects seriously.

Then I entered the phase which most IIT JEE aspirants go through, 2 years coaching for IIT JEE. The whole way of studying chemistry changed and hence my interest in the subject was gone. This happens with many IIT JEE aspirants. I was attracted to the salary of the teachers at the coaching institution and I would think of teaching at some coaching institution or opening my own institute. But what  inspired me to keep going was to get into a top IIT. I would read stories of people ,who cracked JEE and pursued their dream, and get motivated to work hard.

After the JEE results, I was disappointed,but I was satisfied on getting Computer Science at one of the old IIT's .I have always been fascinated about computers , their working,and about the World Wide Web and how computers have changed the world. I am inspired by Steve Jobs, Tim Berners- Lee and Bill Gates to move forward in the field of computer science. All of us find our goals at some point of time and I think that I have found my goal!

"Don't follow your dreams, chase them."
