If you were to inquire about my belief in destiny or karma, my response would be a blend of the two. Destiny represents the ultimate destination, while karma signifies the path that guides you towards it.
Therefore, the choices you make on this journey determine the quality of the destiny you reach. The narrative of Mangirish and Uma Salelkar beautifully.
exemplifies this fusion of destiny and karma, culminating in the establishment of their visionary company, UMANG.
This remarkable journey traces its origins to the following tale: Mangirish had never contemplated embarking on his own entrepreneurial journey, relinquishing his wellcompensated position in Bangalore, where both he and Uma were employed at multinational corporations.
"Uma was employed at IBM, and I was working for another multinational," Mangirish recounted. He described the inception of UMANG as a blessing in disguise.
Circumstances led him to resign from his job in Bangalore due to his mother's illness and battle with cancer.
Mangirish took on the responsibility of caring for his ailing mother and relocating back to Goa. He elaborated, "Already married at that time, Uma was working with IBM, and we jointly decided that she would continue her job, while I would return to Goa to be with my mother." While in Goa, tending to his ailing mother, Mangirish found himself contemplating how to utilize his spare time.
It's worth noting that during that era, the concept of remote work for multinational corporations was not yet a viable option. "I had several possibilities before me freelancing or taking on assignments - yet freelancing was my least favoured choice.
I believed it was crucial to project a professional image to clients, and, in my opinion, freelancers often weren't taken as seriously," he shared.
