Is it worth it?

The first thing that you guys must be wondering after reading the title is 'is it worth what?'. Patience people I am gonna dwell on a very crucial but potentially neglected part of us- our selves
Yes u read it right. I often thought why am I on this earth? Is there any meaning attached to it or is it just fluke? There are so many of us each one striving for some or the other goal. But why am I here, whats the purpose of my life. Sounding a bit philosphical, but thats a realisation we must have better late than never & when we do trust me; our world would change upside down.
It is strange that I understood its importance in an otherwise futile sesion in my B-school. The prof. there gave us (1st sem.) a project whereby we were to prepare a presentation on our career goals & how we planned to achieve them. I thought it was easy. But trust me honestly it was tough. I was at a complete loss of words. My whole orientation changed. 'I want to be a leader' thats what we had crammed in our stints at MBA coaching classes.
But now I was no longer an MBA aspirant but an MBA student. That answer was too loose & vague now. I had to be more specific & purposeful. Hence I embarked upon an exercise of self introspection. I learnt to know myself better. What I am & what I want to be.Its an exercise that I am undertaking even as I write. We must contionously try & discover ourselves for there may be some facets that even we might not be aware of.
till next time happy blogging
