The Soapbox Is an Opportunity for Our Advisory Board Members to Express Their Opinion on an Important Industry Issue. This Month, in an Excerpt From His Presentation Prior to the Felicitation at the Igen Design Forum 2017, Karan Grover Speaks From the Heart to the Young and the Successful
In today’s wealth of fast-paced information, it is no longer enough to focus on beauty without explanation. Which means that the process you use to create something is equally important as what you create, if not more. Each of you has been selected for different reasons, but each of you share at least one thing in common. You each represent a transformation in your field. Being labelled a transformer is not easy. Some of you will live up to this potential for the remainder of your careers, some of will exceed it and, although it’s sad to say, some will fail. For those of you that succeed, I dare you to constantly strive for more. To better yourselves with everything you do, and push yourselves to accomplish all you think is impossible. For those of you who exceed such high expectations, I implore you to give back. And… for those of you who fail, I challenge you to not accept failure as a loss, but instead use it to better yourselves and those around you. Failure is a part of life! However, how you accept such failure will either define you, or consume you.
