Have you dared to follow your dreams? 

That dream of becoming a musician. A footballer. A pottery artist. 

These are not conventional. And they don’t fall into the ‘approved’ list of professions that society would have us do, ideally. 

It becomes particularly hard to stick to your vision when you also don’t have the financial capabilities or the language for it. 

In our latest episode of Dear Mynd, we delve into the intricacies of chasing one’s dreams against all odds. Written by the very talented Shikhil Vyas, “The Salesman” talks about Ramesh, a salesman who is good at his job but struggles with confidence because his English is weak. But Ramesh has goals to reach and things to do. 

The story explores a spectrum of themes, including the enchantment of meaningful conversations, the relentless pursuit of a better life, and the invaluable significance of kindness.

How limited resources can spark determination 

The episode showcases that limited resources should never serve as insurmountable barriers to our determination. It’s the unyielding spirit and the burning desire within us that fuels the journey toward our dreams. “The Salesman” epitomizes this spirit, portraying how one’s unwavering dedication can propel them forward, even in the face of daunting challenges.

Drawing inspiration from the small

The episode reminds us that inspiration can be drawn from the most unassuming sources. Life’s subtleties often hold profound meanings, waiting to be uncovered. Through the story, we uncover the transformative power of embracing the seemingly insignificant moments that can alter the course of our lives.

Language need not be a barrier

Language transcends the mere facade of accents. In the episode, we explore the idea that true communication goes far beyond the pronunciation of words. The narrative underscores the universality of human emotions and connections, reminding us that genuine conversations are not bound by linguistic barriers.

In this riveting episode, we encourage you to explore the fervent pursuit of dreams, irrespective of the challenges life presents. Join us as we embark on a journey through “The Salesman” and its multifaceted themes that echo the symphony of the human experience.

Remember, at Dear Mynd, we’re not just listeners; we’re participants in the ongoing conversation about life, dreams, and the intricate tapestry of our minds.
