Crafting Comfort: The Future of Footwear in India
An article by Gagandeep Kohli, CEO of NoStrain India is the world’s second-largest footwear producer, after China, as was previously…
There is no denying that todayÂs world is competitive. It has always been, but the supply-demand ratio of job vacancies to applicants is unfavorable to the latter by the highest margin in recent decades. And the stories of those who rise to success with even fewer facilities become an inspiration for others. One such personality is Mr. Brajesh Kumar Singh, a renowned name in the digital marketing industry who has worked with renowned brands like SKORE, Cadbury, Max Bupa, etc. as a campaign strategist. Now working with Mercedes Benz, Singh is now a famous blogger and also founder of famous websites like Apna Contest, Feedknock, and TrickDefined.
While he continues to add feathers to his cap and achieve more goals, equally interesting is his story of success. Seeing Brajesh as a person in front of oneself, it’s hard to imagine that this humble guy was once a vegetable seller. But as it is said, Âthe harder the climb, the better the viewÂ.
Born in a grounded household in the Chakrajali village in Bihar, Brajesh constantly took on challenges. His journey was always ridden with bumps, and the ride wasnÂt a smooth one. But what matters the most is, when most of us surrender to the situations, this man got up each time and took on the problems, eye to eye.
He was always a bright student in school, a talent which is praised by his teachers and friends alike; seldom terming him in the Âoutstanding league despite limitations. This man almost topped the Bihar State Board examinations in class 10th, only missing out on the top position by just 15 marks. In his higher secondary, he was a science student, and like most Indian teenagers hoped to clear the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), an engineering entrance assessment conducted for admission to various engineering colleges including the venerable IITs.
However, he could not crack the exam; but he did not get sad and compromise with his dreams. He knew what he wanted, and went to grab it. He then cleared the West Bengal Joint Entrance Exam (WBJEE) and landed in a reputed engineering college in Kolkata. However, hailing from a lower-middle-class family had made him struggle for finances in his initial days. But giving up was something not in this young manÂs dictionary.
When issues with his student loan arose, Brajesh didnÂt even hesitate to reach out to the highest levels of authority to get what he rightfully deserved. He knocked on the doors of the Chief Minister of Bihar, Mr. Nitish Kumar himself, and the way was cleared with his earned luck. During this time, he started exploring the world of digital marketing, a field that would transform his life in the coming years. With his dedication and hard work, he secured his job at Capgemini during college placements, and earned laurels even within the company- ÂPAT on the BACKÂ and ÂSTAR Award for best Customer DeliveryÂ.
BrajeshÂs life has one very important lesson for all of us. Each person faces problems in his/her life, and what differentiates leaders from followers is the attitude towards solving the issues. His life didnÂt go the way he wanted in IIT, but he made the most out of what he had, molded into the container he was put in my life, and excelled in each one of them. This dedication also made him awarded the Global Young Leaders Fellowship and Karmaveer Chakra awards.
