AIESEC Navi Mumbai's Newsletter - The September IssueTRANSCRIPT
I sat for 3 days trying to figure what message I would want
to convey to the readers of this newsletter. Something that
would inspire, make people believe that there’s hope out
there or that the sun is yet to rise. However what I was trying
to put down just didn’t feel right. On the 5th of October
before I went to bed I updated my Blackberry Messenger
status to - Think Different. Not knowing that the next
morning I would wake up to the death of a visionary Steve
Jobs - Co-founder & Ex-CEO of Apple .

Newsletter S e p t e m b e r I s s u e
As I spent the entire morning on CNN watching special TV coverage’s on his life, his
views & creations I realized even more the importance of leaving something behind in
this world. Something people will remember you by. Something known as your Legacy .
Now we may not be able to compare ourselves to a man like Steve Jobs or leave behind
a legacy like his but what we can do is try & believe me when I say that there’s nobody
that can stop you from trying to be the best other than yourself .By far one of the most
successful entrepreneurs Steve Jobs had a dream he wanted to pursue. He had a vision
& he had no biological parents & no college degree to support him.
Live is too short to live someone else’s dream so if you have one go out there and do it
for in the process you will inspire others.
AIESEC Navi Mumbai now enters its last quarter for the year. We have witnessed great
things for a local committee which has existed only for the last 9 months but I know
that there a lot more to come.
Our Legacy has only just begun.
“Here’s to the crazy ones. The rebels. The troublemakers. The ones who see things dif-
ferently. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the peo-
ple who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. ” –

Summer Regional Conference
What’s Been Up?
June National Conference held by AIESEC Chandigarh was a conference held
at Shakunt Resorts on the Delhi Jaipur highway from the 23rd – 28th June.
In this conference all entities of AIESEC India came together to review and
discuss the first six months of the year and plan for the next six months.
This was the first conference where AIESEC Navi Mumbai was officially rep-
resented in a national plenary. Organizations like Coca Cola, Facebook, ISB,
India Today, etc were present and delivered sessions which helped the
young leaders of AIESEC to enhance their experience and provide better
leadership to their respective local committees.

where all entities of AIESEC in the west and south region of India came
together to follow up on the output of June National Conference. It was an
opportunity for people who could not attend JNC to interact with leaders of
AIESEC India and also make the output of JNC more concrete for their
respective local committees.
