Another huge challenge I overcame was something that almost sounds straight out of a film. I was on my way to my office to meet my clients. It was a big day for me since I was about to seal a really good project for my company. On the way to office, it was raining heavily, the cab that I was in skidded on the road and hit an oncoming truck head on. It all happened so fast that when I gained my senses, I could see that I was bleeding profusely from my mouth. My lower lip had split into two and my front tooth was broken. It all felt like a daze. A good Samaritan who was incidentally a Pantaloons employee took me in his cab to the hospital where I received 14 stitches on my lip. Although, I had no major injuries, I knew the meeting I had was of extreme importance. I met my clients via Skype and explained the situation. They were also extremely accommodating on their end and my work went through in the end.
All of these experiences had taught me one thing: You are defeated only when you accept defeat.
