“You have to grow from inside out, no one can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.”~~ Swami Vivekananda
You need to explore to realise what you really are and what you should be at SSB. The simple funda at SSB is to be yourself and express your life openly in front of officer. Once you try to cheat the system the system realizes it and throws you out. The assessors at SSB are well trained and are just looking for few qualities only. Yes I agree, you should be aware of the happenings in India and should have a decent aptitude to comprehend things, but this does not need any preparation, this is the least which we expect from the youth of our country. And such people are termed as responsible citizens of our country. But the reality that I am seeing these days is quite different. Aspirants approach me at the very last moment for some magic to prepare them. I am not a magician to improve personality in fifteen days. It has a streamlined process and now let’s see how to undergo self-introspection:
- Stage 1: The process should start as soon as you realise that you want to be an officer. Officers are not created in a day. Remember after the stringent selection process they are trained in the academy for a year to convert them warriors and refine them and that’s why our defence force officers are different and can be easily identified in the crowd. If you are waiting for the last moment and want to get things easily you should be born with silver or rather I would say a golden spoon. But even if you are born that does not work in SSB. So what are you thinking start your preparation in time and prepare yourself for getting selected in the very first attempt.
