About Me And My Two Years At Medium 🙏🏼
Greetings to all my Medium friends with love❤️
My two years at Medium
Greetings dear friends! 🙏🏼Sending you all lots of love ❤️
I am Dr.Preeti Singh and am completing my 2nd anniversary on Medium on the 15th of September 2022.
All I can say is, that I never expected that time will fly so fast.🪁
I made several good connections. By good connections I mean like-minded people who believe in reciprocity and uplifting other people.
I like to spread love and joy to everyone as I have an attitude of being an eternally happy person.
People ask me how I am eternally happy.
There are good and bad moments in everyone’s life and each one of us has challenges. People might think I am faking it.
But can anyone fake happiness? No never.
What motivates and inspires me? This is my favorite quote and it inspires me.
“With happiness and a feeling of calmness, I can surpass and surmount my challenges, struggle with my inner self and use my energy to have a positive attitude to be happy”- Preeti Singh
Eternally happiness does not happen by itself. It has to be the attitude towards happiness by making a continuous effort to surpass your challenges in a calm manner without too many complaints.
In the past two years, I enjoyed contributing to writing both poems and articles on life and its many experiences in different publications.
I have written on Life Lessons drawn from nature, travels, spirituality, inspiration, the joy of yoga, and meditation.
While on Medium, I have had several top-writer badges. I have got top writer tags in poetry, travel, future, social media, This happened To Me, advice, photography art.
I find it very satisfying to connect with people. I like to read what other writers are writing about as it creates awareness and also gives me new and creative ideas to think about.
I like to extend my help to new writers and new publications. I love building connections and engaging and interacting with people in the comments section on Medium.
Why did I join Medium?
How did I join Medium? I don’t know. I never plan my life and people laugh because they see me as a very organized person.
I plan my activities and my daily life but my career seems to go on taking me to different places by itself.
The universe speaks to me and shows me direction is all I can say.
Two years ago when the covid pandemic started the institutions closed down and went online. Soon afterward, I decided to opt for retirement from full-time work to part-time work as a visiting professor taking up some academic assignments.
Sitting at home, my son suggested joining and writing on Medium. I had never written a blog.
My career
I have done my Ph.D. in finance, been a professor of finance, written and edited research papers, and contributed to conferences as chairperson, delegate, and organizer.
I specialized in finance and have 14 published books and many research papers in prestigious journals.
I had traveled to many universities in the USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, Sweden, Austria, and Thailand on teaching assignments and as a keynote speaker or in a workshop and I was well adapted to academics for 50 years of my lifetime.
Apart from teaching in higher education institutes at the University of Delhi and private organizations, I have also worked in the corporate sphere and as an entrepreneur running my own boutique for fashion garments.
I enjoy working in a team and respect the views of my team members.
I am grateful to the Almighty for helping me in surpassing challenges in life and giving me a life of contentment and satisfaction and beautiful things in life.
Being a woman in India and working has been tough as having a career and moving up was quite a challenge. I enjoyed my achievements and have done things fearlessly.
My interests
I interact with people and love nature so I enjoy my nature walks. I like to be surrounded by flowers and trees and love the open air to gaze at the sunrise and sunset, the moon and the stars. 🌻🌹🌲🌳🌴🌞🌙🌟
My signature style is to put a flower on my hair in the color of my dress every day. 🌹
The birds and the butterflies give me a feeling of freedom, happiness, and high spirits. I enjoy traveling to the mountains, gardens, and seaside and listening to the different sounds of nature. 🦜⛰️🌊🌈
I also do yoga and meditation and feel peace and calm in my life.
Aesthetics and style are important to me. I love to understand the culture, art, embroideries, and dresses of other countries and meet people, and exchange ideas in my travels.
Editor at Medium publications.
I am an editor with Illumination since Dec 2020. I am thankful to Dr Mehmet Yildiz the chief for the courtesy he extends to me.
( I was an editor in Coffee Times but it closed down, and Dreams and Stories.)
I am now an editor with Reciprocal. Thanks to Sahil Patel I have also got a column for nature which is my heart’s delight.
I am also thankful to Lady Dr. Gabriella Korosi for making me an editor of her publication Dancing Elephants Press
To wrap up
I thank all my friends who have supported me on Medium during my two years by expressing my love for them.
Wishing everyone a life of happiness. I want to live, love and laugh, and consider each day of my life to be special. I am extending my good wishes to you all🙏🏼🙏🏼
Make life special and enjoy the rainbows in your life 🌈
