Sanjay Juneja, Vice President of Tempus AI Clinical Operations, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Someone asked me.
‘What’s the rush?’
Today in regard to starting my master’s. I had to think about it, and the only way I could explain it is this – at some point in your life, you start to really appreciate the fortunes in your life – those you met, those that took an interest to share and guide; the inherent traits you may have gotten to start a rung or two ahead on; and when you do, you almost feel this guilt that as much as you want to put it outward into the world, you still feel more like the primary beneficiary.
You know that it’s to best equip to sow those rewards, and plow them back into the world in a way it most needs it. You know that eventually, it’ll all make sense and in the most ideal of worlds, when it’s all said and done you’ll sit back and say,
‘I did everything I could to put it back into the universe’
And then, you get to feel how you really were a means to the end.
Right now, I am over abundant with gratitude. Almost uncomfortably so. I seek to hopefully one day, be comfortable. And that’ll only come when the scales have really tipped into having reinvested it all forward, and left the world with as little as possible.
That’s the rush. Because how else do you reciprocate for the world, what it’s arranged for you?”
