Decision that changed everything

Sometimes we take some different decisions in our life that turns out to be the master key for our success in our future and gives our life a new start. Today I am here with another #SachchiAdvice story of my life advised to me by one of  my professional friend that changed many things for me and gave me a chance to live my life from a new start.

This was a time few years back when I moved from my job to my personal business. I had completed my Masters in Commerce and got a job as a marketing manager in a private firm. Being a student of commerce I was well aware about starting a new business and managing it.
After completing seven years of job in a private firm where I started as an assistant and ended as a Senior Marketing Manager, I decided to take a move and start my own business. I think this thing is common between many people in the same profession where they work in some company for a few years and get the experience to start their own business. I also started my business of imports and exports.

It was a little difficult for me in the start to set the business and make big profits, but being in the same profession for years had made me knew about it well before I started my business. I used to travel different places and find something new available there and get them in my business my buying those goods from there and selling them to other dealers. In the start I had to face loss when some products did not work in the market but then I used to manage them to sell them to local dealers in a discounted price.

At some point of my journey I even thought of leaving everything and getting back to my job but still I had some faith on myself which made me work very hard. A few years later success started coming to me and it made me work even much harder. After many ups and downs in my business I finally found it a little adjusted after three years. Now my company was known by many people on the same business and had gain a lot of respect from others as well. Slowly we expanded our business and started recruiting many new employees with us.

Moving to Mumbai #SachchiAdvice

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.
-Tony Robbins 
Decisions play a very important role in our lives. A life is a game with full of challenges and to win this games you need to take proper decisions at times to overcome those challenges and win this game called Life. Decisions which are taken by us should not be the ones which just help us getting out of a problem, but they should provide us that jump in our life which helps us successfully reach our destinies. 

My life changing decision was leaving my home is Ahmedabad, Gujarat and coming to Mumbai in search for some work. There is always a trend for all those people living in villages to come to a city, and for people living in other cities of India to come to Mumbai or New Delhi or Bengaluru, and the people who stay in metropolitan cities have a dream of going to countries like the United States, England or European Countries. Same was for me, I had completed my Masters in Commerce from Ahmedabad in Gujarat and it was time for me to prove my abilities by getting a challenging job opportunity. I took a decision with the help of my dad where he advised me to work in an established company at Mumbai. 

It was tough for a girl who has never visited Mumbai ever in her life to come here and stay, but when you have a Super Dad like my Father Mr. Dharmesh Patel, nothing is impossible. My dad came with me and stayed for two months with me so that I can feel comfortable in the city. Soon I caught up with the speed of this city and after 7 years today I am well settled in this city.

This decision was tough for me, but all I knew was that I had to face it to be successful in my life. Thanks to my family who always supported me for this. This was my #SachchiAdvice, thanks for reading. I would love if the readers share their life changing decisions in the comments section.
