Rajkumar Venkatramani: The surprising truth about achievement
Rajkumar Venkatramani, Section Chief of Oncology at
“The surprising truth about achievement: it’s not just about talent, it’s about being reliable. People often think success comes mainly from talent. But talent alone, without reliability, often leads to inconsistency and unfulfilled potential.
My wife points out that while I may not be the standout talent in any area, my reliability is my strong suit. If I say I’ll do something by a certain time, it gets done. This isn’t just about tasks; it’s about communication too. I make sure to reply to all my emails and acknowledge everyone. It’s not that I’ve uncovered some profound, unspoken. Rather, I want to remind you today that: ‘How you do things matters as much as what you do.’
True achievement isn’t just about hitting a target; it’s also about HOW you get there. Do you see value in this way of thinking?”
