Introduction:

A popular Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu once said–

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

And for Dr. Asmeet, taking that “One Step” of visualising her future gave her wings.

Today, her perseverance speaks for itself as she is stirring her potential at IIM-Mumbai, the dream destination for business minds.

Graduating in 2023 from Mahatma Gandhi Mission (MGM) Dental College & Hospital in Navi Mumbai, she knew the traditional path wasn’t for her.

That’s when the quest began. Aiming and grinding for the top B-schools, IIM-M became the launchpad of her dreams!

From extracting teeth to extracting business strategies, Dr. Asmeet’s inspiring transition:

The bigger the dreams, the greater the efforts they demand!

Dr. Asmeet had always been ahead of the curve in noticing the saturation around her and the long road of ROI.

The corporate perks, such as work flexibility, financial growth, and ever-evolving expertise, always used to capture her attention.

She always trusted her inner call to pursue a career based on her leadership qualities, and that’s when she chose an MBA as a ladder to unlock her true potential.

Walking on the path less travelled, “an MBA in General Management” was no less than cartwheeled.

Still, Dr. Asmeet’s unshakeable determination bagged her a place in the most prestigious business school in India.

Asked about her MBA preparation days, contentment runs over her face, and she adds:

“I gave my blood and sweat to the process & the reward turned out to be an absolute bliss”. I pushed through the odds and stayed fueled by my own fire, and that makes me proud of the hustle, no matter the struggle.”

Today, she’s going all in towards her post-MBA vision of leading with purpose, earning great rewards, and conquering bold challenges with persistence.

“Work hard but Chill Harder”: Dr. Asmeet’s way to keep the hustle real!

When Dr. Asmeet isn’t climbing the business cliff, she loves to catch concerts, roam around the world, and cook for her closed ones.

From smashing shuttlecocks to laughing her heart out at a stand-up show, she believes that “Life is too fleeting to wander just around work!!”

Conclusion

Dr. Asmeet’s transition has rewritten the rule book of success!

“Stop chasing the crowd and follow your own vibe, because that’s when possibilities turn into endless opportunities” is the closing spark of her wonderful trajectory.
