That's what my boss adviced me when I told her that I am leaving my job for UPSC

I see still myself in the cocoon when my darling friend "Pratap" tells me about his work in Google. How he worked in the Add reviews operations department of Google as an Account Strategist. Sometimes I think why he left his 6 digit salary job, foreign trips and unparalleled success at the age of 24 to prepare for UPSC. I decided to ask Pratap that what his boss said when he told her that he is resigning.

She told him 3 things. First, as he was doing excellent so a promotion. Second, you can get back whenever you want. Third was the most beautiful point which contains the essence and which I tell myself always.

"Pratap you must have taken in plan 2-3 years for this exams and it's long. Never think of yourself as you have resigned from the job contrary keep believing that you have a new job. In this job you have to work daily for 8 hours and that work is studying. Think that someone is paying you for this work. The only difference is that the money being paid to you is getting deposited in some account and will be refunded on your success. If you end up failing then believe that all the money which you earned these 2-3 years which was being deposited in some account, you spent that all in Las Vegas. Like I am going to Las Vegas this year and will spend all my savings. All the best.”
