About

I believe Logic has 2 parts one part will always fail you. The probability of success is only 50% :) So I believe in magic ! As a Exec coach I use storytelling to change and transform people. Having failed several times in life, I have discovered the more you fail the more you succeed. Went through 3 clinical depressions in my life one of which almost killed me, Survived a life threatening accident when I was a kid, Closed my last 2 startups. Lived in a slum in Delhi for almost 2 years in the nineties. It completely changed my world view. I was confused most of the time in my life till someone asked me this question: "Are you seeking clarity or confusion?" Yes, sadly I realised like so many around the world I was seeking confusion :) Here is what my story has been: 1. Nobody to Somebody : I wanted to become someone, but that was not me that I became 2. Somebody to Nobody : I left my job and quit, in an attempt to discover myself 3. Nobody to Somebody: This was the first time I did not want to become someone else but myself, and I finally became myself I must confess I wasted almost my entire life in the first two phases. I have discovered my life purpose : Transforming 5 billion humans by 2030. Have you?

We are touching millions of lives in a small way, making a small difference to make this world a better place. Written 4500 stories so far! With over 450 million views. I realise, I am but an instrument or a medium. My weaknesses: (I have several) 1. I am half blind in reality this helps me try different things & take risks because I cant see anything in either case:). Also makes me realise the difference between sight & vision. 2. I am intentionally deaf to what people say, this helps me live without fear. 3. I am also forgetful, so I dont remember the past :) Everyday is a new day. I am average, it took me a while to realise this, but I will never give up on my dreams or on myself. I hope you are not giving up on yourself. Please don't, even if things are not going right, The world needs you. There are millions in this world who can do with your help. P.S: Startups are designed to fail, Entrepreneurs are not.

Failures struggles & confusions

Failure

Jun 1994Dec 2001 · 7 yrs 6 mos · Planet earth · On-site

  • It was a long dark period of my life which I would always want to forget. Went bankrupt, lived in a slum, failed in pretty much everything I tried. I was achieving in years what people achieved in days, my progress was very slow. But I emerged out of this. I also made several bad decisions.
  • Only in hindsight I realise it was important for me to go through it. I did come to the verge of committing suicide but I was not scared not to do it. I went through a clinical depression too during this period. I was lucky I survived this to tell my story.
