What Should You Have To Become An Officer?

0

We all know that OLQ’s are being checked at SSB, we have seen at many laces what all is needed but do we continuously remind ourselves for this? No most of us don’t. We need to remember that we should not only possess OLQ’s only when we receive a call letter for SSB but we should continuously inherit and practice the notion then only our psychology reflects the same there at SSB.
These are the characteristics that are being looked at:

  • Passion to perform at any circumstances
  • Speaking something which is logical, and involves rational thinking of yours
  • Friendly behaviour when in a team
  • Feeling comfortable when working in a team
  • Accepting challenges and facing them boldly
  • Appropriate aptitude and its application in various phases of life
    OTA Chennai
  • Leadership at its best, leadership in no case means ordering others but to live with success of others and appreciating the people giving onus of success to them
  • Confidence should be reflected in all of the things done
  • Cooperation is needed as there might be situations where you have to put down your decisions and constructively take or accept others decision
  • Complex problems will be part of life in many phases, you should know them how to face them boldly
  • Ability to make complex things easy with the application of brain and logic
  • Strong will that cannot be shaken even by the strongest wind
  • Adjusting in limited resources and enjoying the luxury if they are available in abundance, hence resourcefulness and adjustment in all the situations is needed
  • Faith of group on you should be there else you won’t be the choice to do the work
  • Clarity of concepts of every phase you are passing by
Now my readers would be thinking that i have collected qualities of some superman or the super power, but no it’s the qualities of our officers serving the nation. And please remember these are only few of them, they possess a lot many. You should also notice whether you have them or not as i have not mentioned the quality but the act. Kindly start noticing whether you react or act in a similar fashion and if not start doing so.
Specifically these are the qualities we show in our daily life and here are some situations we generally pass by. I am quite sure all the aspirants have them and in fact every human being possesses them, the difference lies whether we recognise and use them at the appropriate time. Believe me you are just a few step away from your dream, SSB is such a simple exam where you have to just demonstrate what you are, no special gyaan as in other exam or nothing else. Keep practicing and working hard, and if you feel problems are there for you ,please feel free to join me on facebook to get the resolution through mentoring.

Think Positive To Get Success In SSB

Think Positive To Get Success In SSB

“If I can imagine it I can achieve it, if I can dream it I can become it”

Dreaming is natural to all but you only dream whatever is in your subconscious mind and unconscious mind. They are part of life but hidden deep inside your brain. You are the one who has to get up and achieve it. Dreams can become reality because you see in dream only those things that had been your wish somehow or something you always wanted to achieve.

So if this is true why not start dreaming about SSB, what glory it can bring to you once you are recommended and become soldier serving the nation, what’s bad in dreaming about the shining starts on your shoulder, what’s bad in imagining your parents offering those shining stats to you. These are something which everyone on this page dreams of but something’s are needed to get your dreams true.
  • Always live life king size and consider yourself what you want to become.
  • This would increase your motivation level and keep your morale high.
    officers training academy
  • You have to prepare hard because the dream you have seen is something which cannot be achieved by everyone. Achieving is something tough; people have fear to even think of that. So if you have seen it you have something.
  • Start preparing for SSB immediately as it seems something easy but is a different sort of psychometric behavioural assessment.
  • I always suggest my mentees that you should prepare for SSB as soon as you think of defence as I have seen people preparing for written and then waiting for the result or the call letter. Once the result comes or call letter comes you will hardly have a month or so for SSB and that time is very less to prepare for it. So don’t wait just start.
  • Anytime any preparation does not go waste as you will only add something to your knowledge and build your personality.
  • Prepare for psychology properly and don’t be dependent on books alone as they are sample answers given but the same suits to your personality or not needs to be assessed by some expert individually , else you will keep on practising without knowing whether it has same characteristics as you or not. Ion my mentorship i ensure every individual is treated separately and assessed individually else the essence of mentorship is lost.
  • Live up to your expectations and think positive as the path you have chosen does not have negative word in the dictionary. An officer has the ability to see negative things also as positive and live a happy life.
Follow these simple steps and start preparing hard for SSB from the very beginning. Any queries can be forwarded to me related to SSB by messaging on facebook and adding me there. Let’s travel your success path together.

Women Will Soon Be in Combat Roles!

Women Will Soon Be in Combat Roles!

“The lady officers will soon be deployed in combat roles”, the IAF chief, Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha, indicated this in an interview with India Strategic magazine (www.indiastrategic.in) where he said that “The probability of women pilots flying in combat roles in the near future is very bright”. Although it may take some time for the decision to take effect due to procedural approvals, including from the defense ministry, the air chief’s statement is a clear indication that a positive decision has possibly been reached and could soon be announced.

IAF had already opened all branches for induction of women as Short Service Commission (SSC) officers, except in the fighter stream of the flying branch. In fact, so far, women officers in all the three services are not being deployed on active duty close to the border wherein they are likely to be exposed to direct line of fire by an enemy.

indian defence women


But apparently, in keeping with global trends and demands by women for parity even in combat roles, and also to make up for the shortage of officers, IAF, and then possibly the other two services, would gradually unleash them in the defense of the country.
The day is not so far when women will be allowed to serve in nearly all combat positions and even will rise to command a combat brigade.

Success Mantra to Clear SSB

4

SSB is a specialised exam where the applicant is tested thoroughly through scientifically designed tests. Three testes are sufficient to make a sketch of the complete personality of a person. Each one is tested on various parameters that gives the result of the all round personality of an individual. There could be no faking possible because different assessors are there to judge you.

The PIQ that is filled goes to psychologist and the interviewer to tell them about your personality and then through tests they take a sketch of your personality which should match with the one shown by you. The few success mantras as they strike me are:

  1. Be yourself: If you learn to practice this then no one can stop you from cracking SSB. It’s just that simple. Just portray you are unveiling yourself layer by layer in the SSB centre. The questions asked with you or the various tests that are conducted on you will simply let assessor know more about the dynamics of your personality. You are the best teller of that and it’s simple to this level only. Yes I agree you should also be aware of the surroundings too and that happenings around in the world else if you only know about yourself you would be termed self centric and egoist and my officers are not that.
    OTA POP
  2. Always think of your dream and live it:daring to see a dream which everyone cannot even think of this, it requires courage to do so. Since you achieved it now what’s bad in reminding yourself that you need to achieve the task and do whatever is required for it. See believe me if you start living your dream no power in the world can stop you from achieving it. You should be pure at heart for your dream and dreaming for serving my motherland is not the work of cowards. Only brave can do this. Keep thinking of how you can achieve that and what all improvements are needed. Someone has rightly said: “Surround yourself with what you are trying to become, not what you are trying to get away from” You should always see your target of what you need to achieve, how far you are from that and how can the path be traversed.
  3. Live life like an officer: I have seen people during my mentorship program that i run that they tend to modify their living styles for some days but live differently otherwise. Remember the officer is within you, whether you have a SSB call letter or not live originally like an officer, don’t try to be disciplined, punctual for some days and then again come back to the original way of living. Believe me you cannot do that and that’s cheating with yourself so whether you are selected or planning to go to SSB always be the same and live healthy and rich.
Apart from this if any other things bother you, join me on facebook and message your queries. Let’s make this journey simple and easy.

  • Do not mark anything on the question paper, also be careful while handling your OMR sheet as it needs to go through a system for correction, any alteration in OMR sheet would directly disqualify you from AFCAT exam.
  • Read the questions careful, take 10 mins to skim whole question paper and then decide from which section you would like to start. Always start with the easiest section first as it will give you more confidence in the beginning and save time for other sections.
  • Do not mark answers on OMR sheet in hurry, double check your answer and than mark it on the sheet, remember you can not erase or change your answer once marked on the OMR sheet.
  • Utilize the paper given for the rough work, do not hesitate to ask one if that is not enough for you.
  • Concentrate more while solving Spatial Ability section as it requires more concentration level, though the questions are not tough so it is suggested that you solve this section first.
