Sanjay is 33-years-old and works as a City Sales Manager in prestigious Xiaomi, India.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After completing his MBA from Pune, Sanjay has been working for the last 10 years in the Sales and Marketing domain. Sanjay resides in a joint family and enjoys outdoor activities for recreation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI have had an introverted personality. But this started affecting my confidence. I was soon facing issues to function well around my surroundings.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sanjay would often receive remarks from his close ones that he was not communicative or talkative enough. Sanjay would prefer staying inside his own shell of comfort. But the less expressive nature prevented Sanjay from forming meaningful bonds with people around him. This trait also led Sanjay to compromise his relationship with his wife.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soon, he was feeling very disturbed by the overall menaces caused due to one single quality in his personality. He would get irritated and defensive easily. The times got tougher when Sanjay saw his work getting hampered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhen you are not active and reliable, no one trusts you that easily. Something similar was going on with me at my workplace.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17097 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ydwarrior-Sanjay-Adwani-innerimage1.png\" alt=\"Without further ado, Sanjay decided to take a stand for himself.\" width=\"1250\" height=\"654\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1250px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1250\/654;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without further ado, Sanjay decided to take a stand for himself. Sanjay\u2019s company was associated with YourDOST, about which he came to know through a seminar held in his office.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, Sanjay decided to give it a shot hoping that there could be a way out of this loophole.\u00a0 Sanjay got in touch with his counselors and soon started to open up as he found a safe space to vent out his emotions. The counselor, on the other hand, tried to understand Sanjay\u2019s issues well and listen to what he had to express.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI was advised to communicate clearly with my wife. I was also suggested that I make time for her and take her out once in a while.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the counseling sessions went on, Sanjay was seeing a drastic change in the way he was carrying himself around people. The confidence he Sanjay had lost once, was coming back. Previously, Sanjay thought that one only talks about mental disorders with a couselor. But after his own experience, he realized that one can talk about anything from family, health to friends and personal issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sanjay started putting his own efforts into building up his confidence levels. For a start, Sanjay made a habit of communicating with people with as small topics as <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201chad your lunch?\u201d <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17246 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/ydwarrior-Sanjay-Adwani-innerimage2.png\" alt=\"Sanjay saw a steep decrease in his anger and temperament tendencies.\" width=\"1250\" height=\"654\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1250px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1250\/654;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sanjay saw a steep decrease in his anger and temperament tendencies. Sanjay would like to extend his warm gratitude to his counselor as he described her as a polite person. He also appreciates that they are well-equipped and trained professionals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Describing his counseling journey as \u201c<\/span><b>superb<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d, Sanjay rates his overall progress through counseling with a <\/span><b>4 out of 5<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Sanjay also stated that &#8211; \u201cThe counselors were very well organised and very well maintained.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>We, at YourDOST, are amazed by his virtuous attitude towards self-improvement.
