All started some weeks ago… I was traveling for some tens of hours by train to Romanian sea-side. I was going there as I was invited at BEST International Presidents’ Meeting – a technical European student organization very similar to AIESEC. The reason of my presence was to support their international marketing strategy team to develop some strategies; for this we had a previous training about brand implementation, way to build it and stuff like this.
At first, I went to Focsani, a lovely Romanian city to one of my old friends which is Journalist and writer. We spent several hours by talking about new books red, literature and arts and nice places to visit. At one point, she asked me if I am living and enjoying at my full potential right now. The question was direct and unexpected. I remembered about my job as management consultant in the advertising agency, about long days of work for projects, long negotiations with clients, long evening with friends at a coffee and beer and I thought that my life became normal. I mean: I have a job, a group of friends; my girlfriend is great and I have an adorable relation with my brother. I am fulfilled finally?
I thought about this for long hours to Bucharest and then to conference venue. I remembered about my passion, energy and leadership that I always fight for. I remembered about the goals set some years ago, about where I want to go and at this point the system started to move.
And I realized: I want to become MCP of AIESEC in Russia for the next year.
You might think that this was a fast-taken decision. It wasn’t. I have taken many hours of talking with my friends, previous AIESEC colleagues, my family and people that I care and finally I took this decision.
In 10 days I will be in Moscow: all the things started to happen so fast – I quit the job, I bought tickets for Moscow and now I am filling in this rows and the Application Form.
My friends are surprised about it. Some are asking if is true, some wondering if I am in my mind, some congratulate my decision and others keep fingers crossed for me.
The truth is “I am dreaming about AIESEC Russia right now, and I am taking this as the main challenge and priority for the next year”.
