Hopping on the bandwagon of sports, humanitarian, entrepreneurship, and what not. Priyal is adamant on the opinion that failure should be the last thing to hold you back in the journey of finding your niche.

Priyal is a Chartered Accountant by profession but swirling in different fields, she is also an international athlete who has represented India for more than 7 years winning more than 100 medals and officially breaking 3 records. Priyal also runs a non-profit organization that helps in fostering sports culture in India. With an endless list of her talents, she has been a TedX Speaker and was invited by UN WOMEN INDIA to spearhead the generation equality campaign in India.

Key Highlights:

  • Focus more on the good than the bad
  • You will often be mocked for pursuing what you truly believe in but it shouldn’t be a factor to stops you
  • If you fall it is going to be a lesson and if you fly it is going to be a success
  • Never limit yourself to anything, the world is large and thriving to explore

Why should you listen to this podcast?

We tend to demean ourselves and shut ourselves to opportunities after we’ve experienced failure. Instead, the motive of failure should be to ignite you with the fire of achieving things even more than ever. Priyal feels that if she tried to enter 10 doors at least 7 of them were shut. She was able to attain success only because she was stubborn enough to not quit and follow it constantly.

Inspiring us all from her life learnings, Priyal talks about her sports, accounts, and social work experiences. Putting all of this together and letting herself challenge her capabilities became her #SecondAct.
