The purpose of my life

I believe that every human being is born with a purpose. Some aim to advance their family.

Some aim to build a career. The purpose of some is to serve a country. But some people's lives are called to a purpose greater than themselves.

I want my life to be one of those callings. As I reflect on my life, there is one truth that keeps coming back to me.

If a man rises alone it is victory. But if you create an organization that uplifts thousands of people, that is the meaning of life.

That is why the purpose of my life is not to add to my personal achievements, but being responsible for the achievements of others.

I do not want to be remembered as one of the richest people in the world. In many parts of the world, when someone says, "One of the opportunities that changed my life came through SOZHAA," that is a huge honor for me.

My purpose in life is not to build a company, but creating an opportunity system. There should also be room for a village student. There should also be room for a first-generation entrepreneur.

A woman's dream should have its place. There should also be room for an innovator. There should be room for a young person's failure and opportunity to rise again.

I believe in technology. But there is more faith in man than in technology. I know the power of artificial intelligence. But I believe the creativity of the human mind is greater than that.

So every effort I create has to answer a question. "Does it really improve people's lives?" Only if the answer is "yes" should it proceed.

The growth I believe in is not the growth of some. Development that opens doors for all. The economy I believe in is not one that thrives only on account books.

It is an economy that boosts people's self-reliance. Success, I believe, is not measured by awards, but measured by the change in the standard of living of a society.

This world has seen many revolutions: industrial revolution, Information technology revolution, Digital revolution, and the artificial intelligence revolution. But the next big revolution is the "democracy of opportunity." It is not where a man is born but what opportunity he gets that determines his future in the world.

SOZHAA must play its part in creating that world. That is the purpose of my life.

My dreams should not end in my life. They must outlive me. My institutions should not end with my generation. They should also benefit future generations.

The thoughts I create should not become stale with time. They should grow with time. A leader should not live to prove himself. He should live to create a generation greater than himself.

It is not enough for a founder to raise the value of his company. The company should also raise the value of the people it touches.

What I want to leave behind is not the buildings: knowledge, Not offices, opportunities, Not wealth, Self-confidence, Not positions, Accountability, and not fame.

Effective change. The only question I want to ask myself at the end of my life is: "Did you live?" Not. "Did others rise because you lived?" If the answer to that question is "yes", then I would consider my life a success.

Life for me is not a journey to spend time. It is a responsibility to invest in the future of humanity.

My purpose in life is not to make my name known throughout the world, but creating new opportunities for people all over the world with my thinking. That is why I learn.

That is what I create for. That is why I continue to travel. I do not know when this journey will end. But one thing is clear to me.

A man's life is not great because of how long he lives. It will be great because he lit up the future of so many people during his lifetime.

Even if it is a small spark in those lights, that is the real success of my life.

That is the purpose of my life.
