I was an under-confident kid who was judged for his skin color, had a poor self-image, and had a weak personality. I failed at my first job in a call center, where I was asked to leave in less than 2 months due to my poor English, and then got rejected in multiple interviews until I landed at Infosys BPO and later in the IT world.

I endured multiple failures but continued learning and acquiring knowledge and skills from books, courses, coaches, and mentors. My unwavering determination and focus got me into my dream company, Cisco, and then to good positions at big companies like IBM, Capgemini, and Cognizant.

I became the leader, handling top clients from the US, handling multiple projects, leading huge teams, and delivering keynote speeches. After success in my career and life, I asked myself two important questions.
