About Me — Chandrakant
The story of realization, change, and hope
I’m not just an ordinary guy — I’ve always felt I was born for something greater. I still believe it, and that belief runs deep within me.
Growing up, I was the bright kid that my family placed their hopes on.
This made me set the bar high for myself, and each time I reached there, my ambition only grew stronger.
It all began when I excelled in my high school exams and got a rank at the city level.
I set my sights on becoming an IIT graduate and a space scientist at NASA.
But looking back, I can’t quite understand why such a goal consumed three years of my life, keeping me away from my family while I prepared for IIT and struggled to find happiness during that time.
Things took a different turn when I got in touch with my first crush from school through a mutual friend.
As a teenager, I was constantly daydreaming about how perfect we would be together.
Unfortunately, it didn’t last long, and we eventually parted ways, and chose career over teenage love.
I didn’t get into IIT either.
I lost two battles within 3 months.
