In the past two blogs, I shared ideas on choosing a subject to master and shaping the roadmap to get there.

Learning is just the first step — this week’s blog dives into the journey that begins when we put our skills to work.

Before we set out on this journey , let’s pause for a moment and reflect on the words below.

Journey – A path of moving and growing from where you are today to where you want to be.

Purpose – deeper reason or intention behind why we are learning

When learning new skills, your purpose can be as simple as securing your family’s financial well-being or as profound as creating a positive impact on society with the expertise you’ve gained..

Value – how learning helps you grow, solve problems, or create impact.

Virtue – The practice expressed through habits and actions that reflect what is right, just, and meaningful.

Meet Ram, our learner of Data Science — let’s trace his journey through the steps shared in my recent blogs.

Discovery – His choice of Data Science came from asking Genuine ‘Why” (Tell me your Why )

Learning – Learning of data science was based on Sustainable Success Zone—consistent process → deep skill growth. ( When Small is Big)

He completes his learning and started his journey to apply his Data Science skills.

Guided by empathy, collaboration, and responsibility which are his core values, his path leads to organizations driving societal change through research.

As he continue working in the organization he understand that true progress comes from humility, teamwork, and lifelong learning.

His journey began not only with the organization he joined, but with the purpose he discovered, guided by values and actions driven by virtues.

Are your actions guided by purpose, rooted in values.
