From Chartered Accountant to Entrepreneur: Ankit's Real-Life Journey
Success is not an easy undertaking, it may not even be possible in a single attempt, and it often appears senseless, but all you need is consistency! Ankit Singhi followed the same procedure and achieved achievement despite adverse circumstances. Born into a normal baniya middle-class family in Rajasthan, he attended school and graduated from Delhi. He was not a bookworm at all, since he was a typical student with a grade point average of 70 to 80 percent. During his childhood, he was a timid individual, speaking to no one, keeping his head down in public, and lacking confidence.
Soon after, he finished his studies at the higher secondary level and enrolled in Delhi University. After the first year of his graduating programme, he came to the conclusion that this path will not provide him with a decent future and that he must also pursue other opportunities. In those days, doing CA in addition to Bcom(H) was fairly prevalent, and he made the decision to enrol in CA because of this. He attempted the CPT for the foundation level, but he was unsuccessful. He earned 84 points out of a possible 200. That was the first time in his life that he had been unsuccessful. Everyone advised him to give up on the notion of becoming a CA because he was unable to pass the foundation examinations; they questioned how he could possibly pass the CA final exams. However, he made the decision to try the exam one more time, and this time you can count him among the lucky ones because he passed with a score of 100 out of a possible 200 points. His parents informed him that he would not be able to do what he set out to do because it took them two efforts to clear the foundation. How do you plan to get to the next level?
But the occurrence forced him to take his life more seriously, and he resolved to graduate from CA no matter what it took. In spite of the fact that he was getting negative vibes, he decided to sign up for the next level, which was IPCC, and this time he was more determined to achieve his goal. He signed up for the coaching lessons, and it was there that he met Mr. Ajay Jain Sir, who would become his first guide from outside his family. In addition to inspiring him and enlightening him on how CA might affect both him and his family, he also emphasised the meaning of financial independence to him. Because of this, he was able to pass both of the IPCC groups with high marks using only one attempt.
After IPCC was cleared, everything was operating normally. He was having a great time in his final year of college until one day he was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that has no known cure in the field of medical science. This diagnosis radically altered the course of his life. Psoriasis is an uncommon autoimmune illness in which the patient's immune system begins to work excessively, causing the patient's skin and the patient's body as a whole to become affected. It completely destroyed his self-assurance. He did not use drugs and did not have an addiction to anything. Even though he led a very healthy lifestyle, he was nonetheless given this. This transported him back to his boyhood, when he would avoid people in order to avoid having to deal with the look and questions that would come into other people's minds.
Even though he was in shambles, he was dead set on becoming a Californian and on having CA serve as his prefix. This was the one thing that kept him going. However, the difficult part was about to start because he was ready to begin his articleship training, and travelling with this health condition for audit while simultaneously managing his health was a significant difficulty. He attempted a number of treatments in an effort to find a solution for this, but it continued to become worse. Despite the several threats to his health, he maintained his concentration on his studies and completed his articleship. His adventure across CA was drawing to a close. Despite his worsening health, he continued to put his attention on his studies and passed all of his CA exams in January 2019.
After receiving his CA certification, he started working for a bank in Pune. He made it quite apparent as early as 2014 that he desired to be financially independent, which is something that can only be accomplished if he makes something of himself and has a business of his own to fulfil the goal of being financially free. He made the decision to begin putting away money from his paycheck in order to launch his own company. But he had no idea what to do or where to begin when he approached the problem. Even though he might have joined his father in the family business, he decided to pursue other interests instead.
He began to consider his possibilities, including whether he should go into the manufacturing or service industries, and then he began to investigate the various avenues available to him. At the same time that COVID became popular all over the world, a brand-new market was being created in the form of an online coaching market. It was through this market that he was initially introduced to the online coaching market. It gave him access to previously unavailable options. He began his investigation into the topic but was uncertain how he would really immerse himself in it, establish something of his own, and make money off of it as a side product.
He explored a variety of markets, such as the health and wealth markets, but he was unsure which market to focus on. He was in the same state of bewilderment as he had experienced after selecting CA. He squandered a lot of time and effort trying to figure this out since he did not want to get involved in a specialised market that would not end up being beneficial for him. After working for one to two years in this field and participating in a variety of programmes that totaled lakhs of rupees, he was able to determine what his specific area of expertise should be. He had the goal of assisting the millions of young people in this country in making informed career decisions rather than relying on chance alone. However, it was not as simple as he had anticipated it would be, but whenever we ask questions of this world, we will invariably receive answers. It was a turning point in his life when he participated in these programmes taught by a variety of coaches and when he discovered a mentor, and after that he never looked back. Every every day was filled with challenges to overcome and laborious tasks to complete. There were hard days when he felt absolutely discouraged and felt like giving up, but the will of doing something and helping people kept him going. He kept going because he wanted to do something to help people. Now that he's older, he doesn't want any young people to go through the same struggles that he did in terms of being unsure about what career path to take, squandering the best years of his life, and blowing through a significant portion of the money he saved from working a job.
He used to work on his job in the mornings and at night throughout the weekdays, and he used to devote his weekends to his company. In addition, he used to work on his business on the weekdays. He persevered because he yearned to create something that was uniquely his own. He built the company with all of his hard work and dedication, and he will continue to work on this until he turns it into a great success and can help millions of youths choose their career wisely through a process so that they don't waste the most valuable time of their lives figuring out what they want to do in their lives. He will continue to work on this until he can help millions of youths choose their career wisely through a process so that they don't end up wasting their most valuable time
