Life is a journey and one has to celebrate every moment of life either its a personal or professional career. It has been a memorable experience to spend 15 years in a corporate environment. After having spent my early days of my career with NTTF (NEC) & The Indian Hotels Company Limited, The Taj West End, I landed up at MindTree. 
Recently I completed 10 Years@MindTree . As I looked back to reflect on what is that I have learnt in these wonderful years of my life. I have tried to pen down my experiences & key learnings as a Professional.
The definition of a Professional can be attributed to an individual's ability to work unsupervised at any situation, The capacity to self certify the completion of work well done and while doing this maintain the highest level of integrity at work by doing the right and not the convinient.
- Take risks in life and never be complacent with what & where you are. Straight from the Gut, listen to your inner call
- Problems are truly nothing but abundant opportunities/challenges in life. Sky is the limit to your ambition
- Building a culture Centric organization is a long & painful process. Culture is the nucleus of a true people organization
- Never complain, you are either part of the problem or part of the solution. Challenge your limits & conquer the How’s.
- You past glory has no guarantee of your future success, learn everyday. Road always less traveled, develop forward looking attitude
- Work is 8.5 Hrs & Passion is (24/7) for life, be passionate of what you do & Enjoy. There are no short cuts to Success & Achievement in life
- HR Function is the custodian of Culture & values, you are the face of the organization. What you do, say & write is seen as a rule\policy
- It is simple to be happy, but it is so difficult to be simple. Right Attitude is everything, wear a Smile, it costs nothing to be cheerful. Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. Learn to love what you do and you will be happy and successful
- Commitment, Dedication, Passion, Hard work & continuous learning attitude are the bedrock of your professional growth & Success. No one is perfect in life, we all evolve over a period of life. It’s OK to make mistakes but never repeat the same mistake again.
- Man the Maker of his own destiny. You are the driver of your destiny, company can only facilitate right environment & opportunities . Never say No attitude, flexibility, ability to learn, relearn & unlearn.
I would like to thank eveyone who has impacted my life at MindTree and helped me to be a better Professional and it’s been a great journey personally and I will cherish these days for the rest of my life.
Career is a Journey and not a destiny in itself.. explore yourself, experience challenges, Learn, Unlearn, Relearn and Rejuvenate all the time. Sky is the limit for your passion... chase your dreams, wake up and take action to realize all your dreams.
