Thank you dear readers for taking the #10YearChallenge

Here are some best responses we received.

Anurag Sharma takes the 10 year challenge

Anurag Sharma shared a picture of him with his daughter and tells us how much he misses her:

I am working with Bajaj Auto Limited and travel a lot internationally as part of my job. What I miss the most is my family.

My daughter Shambhavi ( I call her monkey ) who was few months old in 2009 is now a little over 10 years. She is 5'4" but I never miss a chance to take her in my arms.

Balakumaran takes the 10 year challenge

Balakumaran sent us this photograph and described how much his life has changed in the last decade:

In 2010, I finished by professional degree and started my career in 2011.

I worked in four companies including Reliance Jio.

I got married in 2017 and we have a son.

In these years, I have travelled to many places including countries like Malaysia and Singapore.

I also visited Majuli islands, the largest river islands in the world with my wife.

I'd like to tell everyone to keep trying and work hard so you can pursue a bright future.

I achieved ample success in my professional and personal life.

I have maintained the same weight (74 kg) since 1999.

I have worked on four overseas projects and a few projects in India.

I got married and have a son.

I discovered happiness through my work and the people around me.

Looking back, I feel I have matured as a person.
