There Is No Alternative To Hard Work": Senior Journalist Chitra Tripathi
In a recent event, senior journalist Chitra Tripathi delivered an inspiring message to young journalists, emphasizing that there is no substitute for hard work. Engaging in an exclusive and thought-provoking discussion with The Vocal News, Tripathi offered valuable advice to those starting out in the field of journalism. "Success doesn’t come easy," she noted, adding, "Diligent effort towards your goals is the only sure path to achieving them." She stressed that opportunities in journalism often arise unexpectedly, and it's crucial to be prepared to seize them when they do. "If you consistently capitalize on these opportunities, nothing can stop you from being successful," she asserted.
When asked about the impact of technology on journalism, Tripathi highlighted its significant benefits, particularly the ease with which news from around the world can now be accessed. "The ability to get important news from distant places at the click of a button on electronic devices is a game-changer," she said. However, she also cautioned against the misuse of technology, urging young professionals to focus on using these tools to advance their careers rather than wasting time on social media platforms like Instagram and Snapchat.
Tripathi concluded the conversation with a powerful piece of advice: "Don’t squander the years meant for building your career on unproductive activities. Keep working hard, and the results will follow." She also took a moment to express her appreciation for Friends Media and Exchange4media for organizing such a successful event, acknowledging the important role these organizations play in fostering industry dialogue.
Anushka Sharma, Business Head at Friends Media, felicitated Ms. Tripathi during the event, thanking her for her invaluable advice to the PR industry and young journalists.

Aparna Sharma emphasized that Tripathi's participation underscored the event's success and the value of fostering meaningful dialogue among industry leaders.
