I grew up in a small town in Madhya Pradesh, surrounded by a family that upheld a business-driven mindset. Education was not easy, since I studied in a Hindi medium school; however, it helped build resilience in me. While my family heavily leaned towards business, I envisioned something different for my career. Against the odds, I took the leap by enrolling in the highly demanding Chartered Accountancy course in Mumbai.
Little did I know, this was just the start, and a grueling struggle would follow. Three years of failure in the CA exams left me shaken; however, that became my greatest lesson. I was discouraged, but definitely not defeated. Reflect, Adapt and Improve - became my mantra to push forward and slowly, I kept converting my failures into milestones, to be achieved with determination. Eventually, my hard work shone through, and I achieved my CA qualification.
Another defining moment in my life came when I joined Infra.Market. The company's visionary leadership and unique business model had me captivated to the point where I wanted to align my skills for their purpose. Slowly, this decision propelled me into the next chapter of my journey of growth and perseverance.
The work environment at Infra.Market not only gave me a strong footing to spread my wings but also taught me the importance of teamwork. I realized that, when individuals with diverse skills, experiences, and perspectives unite, they can accomplish far more than they could alone. As time passed, with the support of my family, I found inspiration in nature, art, and music. They helped me recharge, reflect, and gain knowledge on life. In turn, I stayed grounded while continuously fostering growth and inspiration personally and professionally.
I believe that embracing a growth mindset, learning from failures, and thinking out of the box are key to fulfillment in life. Life is not about perfection but about progression; it is about constantly evolving and contributing to something greater than yourself. Keep pushing forward, for that is how we become the better version of ourselves.
