From Liverpool to Bangalore.

The day started to be amazing soon after entering to the best 5 star hotel of bangalore, JW Marriott. Such a nice place it is, be it the entrance, chandelier, the conference hall at its best. As always, Sujit sir rocked the introduction part.
The hall was sparkled after the entry of the founder of Camp Leaders, Smaller Earth and World Merit*, none other than Sir Chris Arnold.
In spite of coming from a normal background, beating all the odds, experiencing the many tragedies in life, he didn't complain his situations. He was exceptionally well as a student. His father was very supportive to him. It was his teacher Mary Wilson who made a huge impact on his life. At the age of 16, she made him to plan for his future. Mary Wilson made him to believe that he had talent and made him realised that he was responsible for himself. He then wanted to a writer but it didn't turn well. He then thought that travelling the world and finding the right mentor was the solution for all the confusions.
His mentor suggested him to be an entrepreneur analysing his strength. He dropped the idea of being a writer and started to be an entrepreneur. His dad supported him by giving his time and space. He earned nothing for 4 years after starting his journey as an entrepreneur. But he didn't lose hope and belief. He moved ahead and slowly things turned well. After his son's birth, he slowly realised and understood the problems fave d by the people in real world . So it was then he gave birth to a revolutionary platform called WORLD MERIT* as an NGO, which provided opportunities for young leaders based in merit, set challenges for young people and then provide opportunities like jobs, internship and scholarships.
One thing which I really want everyone including me to impact is the claim which he makes himself of, which are:
1. You are capable
2. You are the happiest
3. You are the luckiest
The Q&A session went exceptionally well and I was very much impressed by the answer for this particular question "What are the key things yo highlight your initiative?" to which he replies that its your quality of determination and prove your concept and then move on.
He's a person with strong vision to eradicate the problems of world and a great speaker too. Thanks Chris Arnold sir coming down to Bangalore and inspiring us.

India-born Google CEO Sundar Pichai has expressed gratitude over the deluge of wishes extended to him on his promotion to the helm of the technology giant. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella were among the scores of dignitaries who took to the micro-blogging site to congratulate the IIT Kharagpur alumnus when he was named by Google's co-founder Larry Page as the next chief executive of the slightly slimmed down internet behemoth. Pichai had said he hopes to meet Modi soon as he thanked the Indian leader for his wishes.
