So, here I am, walked the corporate world for 9 years strong, learnt & unlearnt many things. And till now, there is a part of me that I am yet to discover / generate. I am the same old Ankur who still cracks those jokes which are sad enough to make people laugh...the thing I am happiest to know in all this while is that I can be much more than what I am...and its coming out almost each day with a new morning.
People at times forget that it takes a second to hurt someone and it takes much longer to bridge back that vacuum. In the corporate world, there is a difference between these two words..."Boss" & "Leader". People who tend to be bosses, gain more or less everything but the respect.Leader has a vision, knows it clearly & gives direction without losing his/her cool. Working 12 hours a day has become normal & this normalcy we ourselves have set for us. In endeavour to set the expectation & exceeding them we are falling prey to the viscious cycle of the word "temperament". It become a part of us & family life getting affected in the process, more to the nuclear ones. I hope people gradually will come to know that there is a purpose apart from earning, making home, marrying , having & raising kids......in one life.
