Something new

I have always believed that some people are born great, some have greatness thrust upon them and for people like me we always wait for it.

I met a person yesterday, who i can definitely say fell in the first category.
Have you met someone, after meeting whom you feel like you have wasted you whole life doing nothing, that there is much in the world u still dont know?? Well that was the experience I had.

I had gone for my interviews to Nirma University, where I met this guy. For starters, he was a BA English Literature honours which in itself is unique. He had a brand management company of his own whose clients included castrol, pogo etc.. His company earned about 4-5 lakhs from each project. He is currently doing his ICWAI to manage his company accounts. Taking his love for reading to another level, his hobby was to collect rare books. He recently had his collection appraised and it was worth - U will not believe this 25,000 dollars!!!!!.

Thats not all.. He is also into mushroom farming. Was speaking about the return of investment in such a business. He has about 14 people in his company, whom he regulary takes to goa for brainstorming!!!
I have believed that I have a decent enough knowledge about english movies. But the movies which this guy has seen, I have not even heard of..

Now comes the most surprising part. He is hardly 24!!!
On top of it he calls his girlfriend his chick and was one of the most confident guys I have ever seen.

Well what do we learn from this little experience?
No matter how great we consider ourselves, God will always show us some homo sapiens who will bring us down to earth and realise our true worth.
Any comments welcome..

PS: I am sure he was not bragging, He had written most of it in his resume..
