She says, “I have always believed that if I can do it, anyone can. I havetherefore decided to pursue my Master’s along with my ongoing job. If you really want to fulfil your dreams, taking the first step against all odds will give you the confidence to carry on. Looking back on my journey of getting a degree at the age of 44, I have realized that there is no ‘right age’ for accomplishing your goals. At the end of the day, it is always better to try and fail instead of playing safe and regretting it for the rest of your life!”
