I am not talking philosophy, I am talking my experience. It was just last thursday - 29th Of April (which happens to be my Bhabhi's Birthday (birthday of my elder brother's wife(for all my non-indian readers))When i was invited to my college NITK Suratkal to deliver an inspirational cum entrepreneurship talk to students in ATB Seminar Hall of the college. The seminar hall where companies that come for recruitment conduct their Aptitude tests and deliver their presentations.
It was during my college days that I never sat for placements, for my stern belief in myself that I shall take on entrepreneurship in my life. I was advised by a number of friends of mine to take up placements, atleast for the sake of it. I kept telling myself then, a day will come when i will come & deliver presentations of my company over here for recruitment & people will sit to listen, I will come to deliver inspirational & entrepreneurship talks here. I will be the only alumni to get invited as the youngest alumni ever invited back to college to deliver a talk.
It just happened - Right people - Thanks to Rheana John & Akhila. These two gave their heart, mind & soul into making this a reality. Circumstances - My Mangalore(a place in coastal karnataka) trip around the same time. Enough achievments of mine - One young world delegate, lions club awardee etc. before this date. And eventually the dream materialises. Thanks to Gaurav Shetty - a friend of mine from KSHEMA College in Mangalore pursuing his MBBS, who made this whole journey to NITK from Mangalore look like a cake walk, thanks to his Maruti Suzuki Esteem & the well functioning AC of his car.
I step into the college, everything looks the same, the main building, classrooms etc, but the air was really different. It carried a different feeling. It carried a touch which was embracing me as an achiever and bestowing pride in me. It was carrying those unspoken words which I spoken to myself, sitting outside the hostel gate on the steps, that I would soon come to this college to deliver talks. Department teachers, Director Students etc would know me. You alone never can make things happen. I shall owe a lot to Rheana & Akhila for helping this vision turn reality.
The Talk went on as expected, I had this feeling deep down during all 4 years when i studied at NITK, that it can be a collection of world class individuals if students could adopt a few world class attitudes. I never had the authority to convey this then. But glad I could make a difference to few lives out of over 200+ students present in the hall.
I were a true definition for a winner & my feelings could define winning at the moment I completed my talk.
I just request my readers through this blog not to hesitate to dream the wildest dreams, sometimes even practically impossible, For, they do come true & they are the ones that carry a feeling only a few men experience. A feeling of esctacy, a feeling of having climbed Mt.Everest, A feeling of landing on the moon - A feeling so priceless.
Dont let your dreams die out of fears that the world sets in or the parameters the world decides. Explore within yourself, there is a vast potential that lies, yet to unleash which has the power to help accomplish your dream. If the dream could take birth inside you, it simply means you also have required resource inside you.
DREAM! EXPLORE! EXPLODE!
