‘I Feel Life Is Really An Opportunity'

LAST WORD Ashish Vidyarthi

- Sheetal Kharka

WORK-LIFE BALANCE juggling tires us. It gives rise to this wonderful thing called stress. It is wonderful if each of us gets that − and if we maximize and pays attention to the part we are playing, being in the moment and being extraordinary in what we do.

It (being in the moment) will leave you fulfilled in each moment. It will give you hope, creativity and allow you to paint your life and that is what I talk to people about. Let’s not talk about problems, for they will always remain, but about having access to this moment and being a support to people in finding this access.

I have spoken at more than a hundred organizations in India and abroad. What I learned was that there is a continuous and constant need to learn.

Initially, I had no clue about what was happening (not that I have any clue now), but I just had to be inquisitive about it. I discovered that when I go to conferences and keynotes if I reach the early morning, just before the gala event and sit through it through the entire day, I learn the most from industry people.
