The most rewarding and transformative experiences come through seeking out and taking up challenges rather than avoiding them. It's very easy to get caught up and trapped in the end goal of what we are doing. The daily grind, the small victories hitting career milestones even the setbacks along the way. It’s about finding harmony, much like a journalist who sprints through deadlines by day and conquers marathons by dawn.The idea is to sprint through two different worlds which aren’t essentially separate but need to be fueled by creating a rhythm and balance where passion and purpose exist parallelly.
