Later that day at lunch, he told me that he had secured a scholarship to study for his master's degree in America.
He explained that he studied for the GRE, passed with very high marks, and applied for admission plus scholarship, and he got it.
I was intrigued.
But I desperately wanted more for myself and knew that I had to make sacrifices to achieve my goals.
11-hour workdays.
4 hours travel to work.
3 hours studytime (10pm to 1am)
4 hours sleep.
For 6 months.
Traffic jams will always be there. You just have to keep working on your life goals despite it.
The rest, as they say, is history.
You own your life and can direct it in the direction of your dreams.
