NDA CHAPTER

Yesterday was a very special day, as 16 January is observed as NDA Day.
It is amazing that as a cadet, you wish to get out of NDA as soon as possible, and once you get out, you would give anything in this world to become a cadet again.

Five lifelong lessons which I learnt at NDA:-

"If a thing doesn't kill you, it only makes you stronger."
Every single day you get to know the limits of your body. Only easy day was yesterday.
When you leave NDA, no matter what God throws at you, you take it with a smile, as you have already seen worse.

"Appreciate everything and be grateful for what you've got."
In NDA, you start appreciating the small things in life which you didn't give much importance to earlier — like sleep, talking to family and loved ones, and eating food in your own sweet time.
Only in NDA did I realise their value.

"Everything is mental."
There are absolutely no limits to human capabilities, and your limits are what you set in your mind.
While undergoing training, you won't realise it, but in the name of squadron spirit, when you push yourself, you get to realise the superpowers you possess.

"Brothers Beyond Blood."
The camaraderie is something that cannot be explained to the aam janta — it can only be experienced.
The bond with your coursemates, squadron types, place types, and various other forms of pals is beyond imagination.

"It's not just a building."
The squadron building becomes your mother providing you food, your father providing you shelter and protection, and your elder sibling who is always there to help you.
It's not just a building — it's the love of your life.

Neither it can be inherited nor it can be purchased It can only be earned.
