An Amazing Story of Determination, Hope, and Courage

Preeti Monga: Author of 'The Other Senses'

An inspiring story of success of a visually impaired woman.

"Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content." – Helen Keller

Preeti was barely six years old when doctors diagnosed her deteriorating vision as a condition due to optic atrophy. Those were difficult days, but with the support and encouragement of her parents, she learned to get the best out of her disability. She looked for possibilities, focused on every positive she could dream of, always playing her best shot at facing challenges and failures with dignity and without shame.

Sprinkled liberally with failures and obstacles, her story is a journey through a fairly difficult life with lots of courage and a never-say-die attitude. In her memoirs, she shares all the fun she had living life queen-size and on her own terms. For she firmly believes, "When life gets cloudy, the trick is to look at the silver lining."

About Preeti Monga:

A trauma counsellor, corporate trainer, writer, aerobics trainer, public speaker, and director of Silver Linings Human Resource Solution Private Limited – all rolled into one, Preeti Monga's achievements are inspirational. Winner of various awards, Preeti was the first Indian visually impaired person to successfully clear the Aerobic Instructor training. Now a successful entrepreneur, she has been relentlessly working on equal rights for people with special needs. That she lost her vision early in life could not deter Preeti from living up to her dreams.

Your posting is very impressive. Hats off to the lady who has achieved so much in the wake of adversity striking her so early in her life. Preeti Monga would certainly be providing "vision" to many others through her multifarious activities despite her own setback. What a remarkable level of motivation!
