Our next poem in the Poetry That Inspires series is titled “Human Family” by Maya Angelou, where she speaks about seeing the best in people despite their differences and how we are all basically the same. This poem conveys simplicity & universal truth that all human beings are similar in nature irrespective of their skin colour, religion, caste or background. Maya Angelou’s words touch on unity and oneness of humanity which is a message that is very relevant in today's society where we see more division than before. Now it's too important to have each other's back. We all need each other! Hope you have a great week ahead. Regards, TeamSJS & Simerjeet Singh Human Family I note the obvious differences in the human family. Some of us are serious, some thrive on comedy. Some declare their lives are lived as true profundity, and others claim they really live the real reality. The variety of our skin tones can confuse, bemuse, delight, brown and pink and beige and purple, tan and blue and white. I've sailed upon the seven seas and stopped in every land, I've seen the wonders of the world not yet one common man. I know ten thousand women called Jane and Mary Jane, but I've not seen any two who really were the same. Mirror twins are different although their features jibe, and lovers think quite different thoughts while lying side by side. We love and lose in China, we weep on England's moors, and laugh and moan in Guinea, and thrive on Spanish shores. We seek success in Finland, are born and die in Maine. In minor ways we differ, in major we're the same. I note the obvious differences between each sort and type, but we are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike. We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike. We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike.

Have you ever felt that you deserved better than what life has offered to you so far? Are you one of those who believes that opportunities are to be discovered by moving away from the place where you belong? If yes, listen to the latest episode entitled “Looking for your next Big opportunity” as part of the Stories that Matter Series to remove the misconception. Simerjeet tells an inspirational story, “Acres of Diamonds,” and drives home the point that there is no shortage of opportunities wherever you are; what you need is the correct mindset to notice and grab the opportunities on offer. The episode highlights the binary between the opportunities being “out there ready to be discovered” or being “right here to be explored.” Ali Haafid, in the story, could not discover his acres of diamonds because of the mindset that the next ample material opportunity is in the distant land. Simerjeet combines the ancient wisdom of the story with modern day entrepreneurial success stories to make you realize that you should count your blessings and work hard to make your reality a better one. The episode highlights that if we are dedicated and passionate about our own, we won’t need to explore distant lands for material and professional gains. There will be challenges en route, but you can change them into opportunities with grit and determination. All you need is a new perspective to realize that the best options might be available where you are. Listen to the episode till the end to find out how you are the only person who can turn your life around. All you need to do is stand up with your head held high and commit yourself to the opportunities at hand.

The Japanese Ikigai (Reason for being) exercise helped a stressed-out, burnt-out young engineer from BITS Pilani launch version 2.0 of her career as a doctor at 29 – a decision that would raise many eyebrows and a goal many would call unachievable. Aakriti Goel’s story is one of grit, vision, perseverance, refusal to accept the status quo and a call to action for everyone to pursue their dreams. In this episode of the Beginner's Mind Series host, Simerjeet Singh and Akriti decode the complex and often confusing path of changing your career and reinventing yourself professionally.

If you identify with any of these questions, listen to Simerjeet Singh’s live chat with Akriti Goel in the Beginner’s Mind Series. Akriti Goel is a 2015 batch Engineering graduate from BITS Pilani who swiftly climbed the corporate ladder. She worked with the company’s CEO and supervised new initiatives, operations, content, design and company PR until, in January 2020, she had burnout and quit the job. Then, the turnaround started, and she prepared for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET). She got an All India rank of 1118 and is set to pursue a career in medicine. She will be a doctor at 35 and a surgeon at 40. Simerjeet Singh and Akriti Goel share why it is essential to follow your dreams. Career transition is the most difficult choice you may have to make in your life, but you should not desist from it. Together they explore questions like “Can you restart your career?”, “Is age a barrier in a Career change?” and “Can women opt for career transition in the Indian society?”.They emphasize that there is no limit to what you can achieve if you have faith in your abilities. The conversation also bursts the myth that in the Indian situation, once a person chooses a career, he cannot make a transition. If you are passing through such a phase or believe that there is a need to reinvent yourself, the conversation with Akriti Goyal will clarify many doubts and pave the way for you to achieve your career goals.
