Press Release

Today we’d like to introduce you to Deepesh.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?

If I have to talk about “My Story” as we humans expect to hear:

My path has never been linear.

I studied science first, then switched to Economics, qualified as a Chartered Accountant, and ended up at Ernst & Young in Dubai. Finance felt like post-mortem work. Always explaining what went wrong, rarely preventing it. So I moved into IT.

I ran ERP solutions in Dubai, relocated to the United States just as the tech bubble burst, spent years in consulting, then led IT for billion-dollar corporations in Corporate America.

Then I stepped back completely. I gave two years to that search. Kriya-yoga. Inner Engineering. Shoonya. Six months of walking, reflecting, and writing. What came out of it was simple: Life is now. That freedom, from fear, titles, and the endless chase, is what led me to build CMIT Solutions of Silver Spring.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?

A lot of the people around me, relatives, friends, and colleagues, would say I have had my struggles. And probably in the world of ‘doing’ it wasn’t a smooth road. Mainly, because they saw me jumping around from one thing to another. And I don’t blame them because no one can see inside the other person. We all go by what we see someone doing and draw our conclusions. But my answer would be that whether it was ‘doing’ or ‘living’ I travelled a growth path that has been fulfilling, smooth, and where I am today would not have been possible without having taken this road.
It is said hindsight is 20/20. But I actually never had any conflict in my mind when I was jumping around. To me, it was all very normal and sequential. And since I have had the self-realization, it all makes true sense. Doing something of my own was always the undertone in all my jobs. To the extent that a number of my friends would always ask me when I am starting my entrepreneurial journey.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?

What matters most to you? Why?

So when it comes to “what matters most”, my answer would be “nothing”.
Let’s understand this by going to the part right in the beginning of “my story” where I said, “as we humans expect to hear”. I call that part “Doing”. And then in the next paragraph, I talked about “Living”. Living as I said earlier is “Now”. It is happening all the time. It is the part that is happening and will happen “Forever”( I can explain this in another session) ‘Doing’ is what we ‘have’ to do in order to ‘Live’. It is always a subset of living.

So when we talk about what matters most. It always relates to ‘Doing’. And the part that creates a conflict and why I say ‘nothing’ matters is because of the word ‘Most’. Nothing matters most. Doing doesn’t matter at all. We do only to live and it is limited to what is required to live. Which also means that ‘Everything matters’. It’s not a question of most or least. In life, everything matters: to the extent that when one is living (in the Now), everything matters. Not just doing something that we think matters most. Being engaged a 100% in what we do, when we do it, is what matters. And this is the essence of living. Being in the Now!

Pricing:

When it comes to what we do as CMIT Solutions, it is about securing our customers’ business. In today’s world, where cybercrime is all around us, it’s not about what businesses have to pay as an expense or cost. It is about how much should be paid to secure and protect the business. It’s paying for managing the risk of losing one’s business.
