I secured the third position in the third and fourth grade. Once
the results of Class 4 were out, my class teacher called and asked me, ‘What is
this?’ I said, ‘The third position.’ She slapped me on my face and told
me, ‘You don't want to move further?’ After that, next semester, I
scored the second position in the class and then slowly moved to 1st rank. That
one slap changed everything.

I have learnt so much from all my teachers. I remember it was my teachers'
constant encouragement which made me love all my subjects. It was the way they
taught, they made everything seem like so much fun.

For
me, my father is my teacher. One thing which he told me when I was around
6 years old was that I had a big heart and never feared anything. It felt like
dad knew something about me which I didn't even know about myself. I took his
word and believed it for good. Since then, fear has been out of my life. This
teaching has been one of the main pillars of my personality and will remain
with me until my last breath.

I
was very close to my school principal, Late Dr Neelam Walia. She
taught me a lot of things and she somehow knew that I will make my way to this
industry. So, she used to always say 'Naveen, stay grounded always, no matter
how big and famous you become.’ I had no idea why she used to say this to me.
But now I understand.

I
am so lucky to have so many teachers who I have learned a lot from. Whatever be
the situation, they always taught me to believe in god and pray. I make sure to
remember this every time I feel like giving up.

More
than academics, I am lucky that I got teachers who always
showed me the right path in life. They focused more on values -- as
in respecting your family, not judging anyone. That is
what matters in life the most.
