Today, I am going to share with you some of my life lessons. I learned these lessons in the
context of my early career struggle, a life lived under the influence of sometimes unplanned events
which were the crucibles that tempered my character and re-shaped my future.
The first event occurred when I was a graduate student in control theory at the Indian
Institute of Technology (IT) Kanpur. At breakfast, on a bright Sunday morning in 1968. I met a
famous computer scientist who was on sabbatical from a well-known US university. He was
discussing exciting new developments in the field of computer science with a large number of
students, explaining how such developments would alter our future. He was articulate, passionate
and quite convincing.
I was hooked. I went straight from breakfast to the library, read four or five papers he
suggested, and left the library determined to study computer science. When I looked back at that
pivotal meeting. I marvel at how one role model can alter the future of a young student for the
better. This experience taught me that valuable advice can sometimes come from an unexpected
source and chance events can sometimes open new doors.
