In brief

Excerpts from our conversation with Kashish

"What really helped me was the realization that you can’t please everyone, you can’t change everyone’s point of view. What you can change, though, is your reaction to it. I wanted to be proud of myself and I am for what I have achieved."

— KASHISH SHARMA

Being here among uncertainty has made me realize that I can actually do everything. Whether I fail or not, I can still try. When you don’t try, you are guaranteeing a 100% failure, but when you try, it takes away 50% of the chance of failing.
