You see this piece of paper?

This is a crumbled list of goals from 2018 where the 17 year old Paritosh has written a few goals he wanted to accomplish.

Little one wanted to put a little money together, have a few followers on the internet, speak on a stage (very ambitious i must say because of how much of an introverted little thing he was), he wanted to buy a camera (that he would eventually loose) and …

Also launch a clothing brand.

How crazy is that, no?

A 17 year old wanting to make a clothing brand.

But you see, the ‘why’ is much more important here. It’s storytime …

You this kid? This 17 year old boy had just left the National Defence Academy.

In that moment he thought he was taking a very courageous decision, but little did he know the amount of hatred he had signed up for.

Every corner of the country was calling him out for his decision,

His friends, his family, people unknown were all calling him a traitor, a coward, a disgrace.

But our boy kept going.

Something in him made him stick to his purpose.

He kept telling himself “All of this would make perfect sense someday.”

And I guess our boy did make a little sense, didnt he?

Let’s go back to that list …

As of today he runs a multiple businesses out of Mumbai (so i guess the money part has been taken care of)

He has spoken on more than 250 speeches all across the globe (that covers the 1 speech he wanted to give)

He takes more flights in a month than he wanted to take all year back in 2018,

But, he didn’t make his clothing brand.

Rather, he built a mission and called it ‘Believe’.

This mission was made for the misfits, the rebels, the dreamers, the rejects.

The ones who refused to settle with failure,

The ones who shamelessly went after their dreams to conquer the life they were meant to live.

The world sees a clothing brand with good quality cloth, good designs,

But now you know – it’s much more than that.

It’s a little voice that will always tell you to run after your dreams,

It’s a hand that will hold you whenever life gets tough,

It’s a reminder that …

It’s true if you Believe.
