SELF INTROSPECTION: Gateway To Success At SSB – Part 2

This article is in continuation of the series of self-introspection. Once you are ready to serve and have decided to walk on this path you need to possess a lot. Not one or two, but a set of fifteen pre-defined OLQ’s in which no relaxation is given at SSB while assessing them. But God has been gracious enough to give each and every quality to every person born on this earth. An immediate thought comes in that if this is the case why are there people who are carrying illegal activities and why is not everyone then selected at SSB? The fact remains that though the qualities are present in each and every one but the degree of variation takes place once you become a part and parcel of the cruel world and you and your mind is influenced by the surroundings, happenings and the people surrounding you.

These all activities which happens a part of your life affects your mind knowingly or unknowingly. The next stage helps in protecting yourself and analysing what is there in you.

Stage 2: Keep your mind-set positive so that you protect yourself sufficiently and don’t lose the essence of qualities that are present in you. As suggested earlier that all the qualities are present in you during the time of birth but their degrees differed in individuals and also by the way an individual is brought up. It’s you who are responsible for yourself and mould your personality as per the need. Protecting from the negative impact helps in your personality development and thus achieving success at SSB easily. The next stage is very crucial which helps in realisation of the fact that what you possess and what more is needed.
Stage 3: the next thing that an individual should do before starting preparation for SSB is to self-introspect so that he/ she knows what OLQ’s are there , what are the weakness of an individual and what needs to be developed. There are specific inventories that are there in market and I also provide to my aspirants taking the mentorship for assessment of their personality which facilitate change and smoothen the way for realisation of reality which can help in improvement. These inventories are specially designed after research which can actually help in predicting the individual’s status in a group and the dynamics that take place at SSB while an individual is surrounded by people from different regions and different nature. It’s very important to perform in excellent way in individual tasks while decent in group’s tasks too at SSB.

This process of analysis can take up to fifteen days and once the report is ready the individual knows the area he or she needs to focus upon. SSB is a simple place where if you reveal your true self, no one can stop you from getting selected and the simple mantra works for at SSB. Self-realisation is a powerful tool which helps to strengthen the weak links and then the journey to wear uniform is just a matter of performance at the SSB centre. In the next part of this series which is the last one we will see that what’s next that help in facilitating change of personality and how to go about it.
