During certain times in our lives, we lose our zest to do things. In terms of work, this happens when we face numerous failures. We start to lose our hope for success and get encircled by negativity.
The story of this man whom we are going to know about today is an example of hope in such times. It is a perfect guide of how perseverance and patience takes you wherever you want to be.
Sandeep Maheshwari, a famous motivational and spiritual speaker of today’s time, was born on 28th September 1980.
Although having a background of a middle class family, this man holds a mindset of a top class individual.
His journey began with him getting involved in the family business. In order to fight the financial hurdles, he went on to do different jobs around marketing. And soon he dropped out of college while juggling with hurdles. But the business didn’t work as it was expected. This made Mr. Maheshwari take a path of career exploration.
At the age of 19, he tried for modelling. He explored it on a deeper level but failed to be successful in it. Many of us would have dropped the plan of exploring more things by seeing two or three major career failures. But Mr. Maheshwari did something else. He went on to dive on a deeper level.
He explored and found his liking for photography. This made him get into the world of freelancing. He would spend hours clicking pictures and understanding the field immensely. And soon he came across a contest where he made a marvellous record of clicking 10,000 pictures in 10 hours and 45 minutes of a total 122 models. This made him realise the surface of his potential.
In life, when we fail, we must not forget that our full potential is yet to be tapped. If we understand this simple statement, we would not be afraid of risks and failures. Rather we would count them as blessings. Sandeep Maheshwari knew he had potential which kept him patient enough to unlock it.
He soon wanted to take the photography field to a bigger level. This made him launch his own website “ImagesBazaar”. The start was small but today, this website is the largest digital space having a collection of Indian aesthetical pictures. It has several sections containing culture, people, traditions and environment of India.
With time, Mr. Maheshwari became a huge talk among Indian entrepreneurs. People started recognising him while he kept winning several awards. He has won the “Young Creative Entrepreneur Award”. He has won the
“Star Youth Achiever Award”. He has been featured in top television channels, magazines, newspapers etc.
Perseverance and patience definitely helped him build his empire and turn his dreams into reality. But he knew there were several little details to it which weren't out in the world. And he decided to share it with people across the world to encourage them to follow their dreams.
He did free sessions and then seminars blending the key focus phrase - “perseverance and patience” with several other rules of success. He soon went digital and uploaded all of his videos on the internet which today has millions of views on each. From business talks to self-confidence,
from happiness to decision making, his channel is a major source of knowledge for everyone.
If he hadn’t been patient enough to dive and take time to understand things, this amazing contribution of his to the society wouldn't have come to life. He wouldn’t have touched the pillars of success one after another. And he wouldn’t have been the pioneer of the self improvement world today.
While he keeps on making wonderful and thought provoking videos, we want you to remember to be patient.
Start with a thought and then a goal and then the execution. If you fail, have perseverance and analyze while taking things forward. And if you find out it isn’t what you want to do, have patience and switch the fields. Explore. Let your wings grow bigger and fly.
Takeaway:
In the fast-paced world like today’s, we lack few of the major qualities of successful people- patience and perseverance. Sandeep Maheshwari’s story focuses on these qualities and concludes that you must remain calm to get where you want to be. You must have patience while trying different things out, learning them, growing them and finally becoming successful in them.
