2023: Looking Ahead

Wishing everyone a very happy year ahead.?

As I sit to write my first blog of the year, I can’t help but feel grateful for the year that went by. To me, it was one of the best years that we have spent. I write this because when we were just happy to have survived the pandemic over a couple of years, 2022 helped us leave the negativity behind and make a fresh start in a new and changing world.?

No, I am not overlooking the fact that we have witnessed the start of a war that has divided the world, there have been uprisings in countries and some have seen regimes change, world leaders have passed away, and many such negative incidents. The economic situation the world is going through also remains our biggest concern.

But surely the gloom that had engulfed us has cleared away in 2022.

I hope that 2023 will take the baton from 2022 in the same spirit and bring about magical changes in our lives. It should not be a mere coincidence that the digits of the year add up to the magical number 7. Coincidentally or otherwise, this number has had several implications in our lives. The seven days of the week; the seven notes of the Sargam; the seven colors of the rainbow; the seven wonders of the world, the seven holes of our skull, there are many other significances of the number that touches us regularly.?

In the same spirit may the year also help us look forward to favorable changes that will not only take us forward but also revive us from the downturn. Though there are a few lingering concerns about the outbreak of a new variant, I am confident that collectively we are geared to ensure that the spread is arrested.

On the work front at VFS Capital, I am very excited to get into 2023, as we have major plans, involving growing the initiatives that are already in motion and launching a few innovative programs as accelerators.?

Summing up, I wish you all to have magical successes in your life and workplace and hope that you bring in transformations to scale new heights.
