About Sovan Das

I have a background in Biology and currently work in the pharmaceutical industry. Growing up in a middle class family from India, I only had three choices that I needed to choose from when I grew up to be an adult: doctor, lawyer or engineer. I started off on that path believing I would become a doctor, because I wanted to pursue the lifestyle and believed it was the best way to help people. While I was still attending college, my core beliefs started to shift as a result of some real world experiences. I realized I valued autonomy, independence and being able to have more choices and flexibility in the future that I created. I continue to build strong relationships with others who share similar values and goals. Mark Twain once said that \" & .\" I found my second most important day in my life while studying in college, that the path I was on would never lead me to my dreams. With my hunger for success I started exploring what else I could do to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. That is when I was introduced to a group of successful people. After earning their trust and mentorship, I finally found my and. My view of what success was narrow and, with my middle class up bringing, it meant having a lot of money and power. My WHY became clear when I learnt the true meaning of success - it\'s \"\" The WHY gave me the courage to disrupt my life, redirect my focus, and alter the course of my life. Life is not about waking up everyday, surviving and going back to sleep. Life is not about struggling financially. That can only happen if one is not controlled by money. The first step to living an awesome life is to become self-reliant and controlling your own destiny!
