To all those who feel let down and absolutely jaded; uncertainty gnawing at you; fighting a losing battle within-- with yourself..please read till the very end of the post.
Impossible Dream
To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong To love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow that star, No matter how hopeless, no matter how far To fight for the right without question or cause To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true to this glorious quest That my heart will lie peaceful and calm when I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this That one man scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courage To fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the unreachable star
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low but the debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit... Rest if you must, but don't you quit!
Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many failures turn about When we might have won had we stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow... You may succeed with another blow.
Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor’s cup; And he learned too late when the night came down, How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out... And you can never tell how close you are It may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
Finally, isse suno..and afterwards get down with what's important!
Bye everyone. Thanks.. you've been to me what friends of years refused to be. (I believe in the kindness of strangers)

Hi all...just wanted to express my feelings... This was my 5th attempt and again i am on borderline as usual , previous 4 times also cutoff missed by 4-7 marks..this is going to be my last attempt..yet i am preparing for 3 june 2018 with full zeal....the thing which i have concluded is that CSE is not the ultimate test of your mettle or your capability or proving your point ...most of us tend to think in such way...and also due to much of our parental grooming or upbringing that IAS is the ultimate thing...we know that IAS/IPS/IFS is the one of the most prestigious way of serving our country but i just want to say that those who are genuinely working hard and fail by some margin at any stage of the exam...all those people are equally capable of becoming IAS/IPS etc...because upto a certain threshold, hard work and intelligence is there...but after that threshold point...luck factor comes into working...i know i may be talking nonsense but just wanted to say...
