In 2006, my managing director wrote a quote in his parting note: 'Profit without Risk, Experience without danger, and reward without hard work is like living a life without being born.' In those days, we didn't have the luxury of asking ChatGPT to write such a note, so it was his heartfelt message and not an AI-created one, and it is more relevant two decades later for each one of us! He gave the message to people that risk, experience, and hard work are important for moving up and ahead in life.
As I reflect back, I feel that the world has moved fast. No matter what we have achieved in the past, it is not a guarantee for securing our future. We need to invest in upskilling ourselves every few months, not every few years. Times are changing so fast, and every quarter, we read about the latest being launched.
Two days ago, I addressed about 2,500 pharmacists from Maharashtra state. When I asked them the basic questions about technology in their profession, less than 10 hands were up. This prompted me to tell them, 'Don't become a 'Kodak' or a 'Pager.' Please move ahead with time. As I say, 'If you keep pace with technology, you will keep your job.' Start your journey now, today!
Independence Day is a good day to commit to investing in yourself. I believe you should invest at least 3% of your annual income to secure your 97% for the following year. This is a wise decision. In my career, I have taken courses that helped me, and I have continued to do that even today in various structured formats; like short-term courses and attending global meetings and conferences abroad. Such investments are non-negotiable for me.
I hope that those who read this will take action to invest in their growth and their sector. I wish to meet some of you at www.globalsummit.health and let's talk about the latest developments and how we can not just secure our profession or organizations but lead the change.
