Dear interns

dear interns…

…are you ready for life?

welcome to a new chapter

a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step…

…today is your first step!

your first step towards the mountain? what’s your mountain?

a good mountain… but good is boring…

never settle for good, have super high expectations of ‘good’!

why be good when you can be great? how about awesome?

but great doesn’t happen…

“greatness is not a function of circumstance. greatness, it turns out, is largely a matter of conscious choice, and discipline.” 

― Jim Collins

add passion and hard-work to the mix

what about luck? really?

being at the right place at the right time, luck? ofcourse there is such a thing as luck but you have to get up to be at the right place, right

time! and you want it to happen! just how badly?

don’t forget to plan!

life doesn’t just happen…

so you wanna be successful?

be positive

read, read, read more

the best advice that i could repeat a million times is read, read, read!

never stop reading!

follow the above

all leaders are readers…

two books you should read today… i have gifted over 100 copies of this book ..from newborns all the way to 70 year olds!

checklist…

find your passion! feel the passion! ignite the passion! set yourself on fire! find a fun hobby think radically , don’t try to fit in find a mentor or two or three, learn their secret sauce choose wisely don’t be idle be humble read, read, read more travel as much stay physically active everyday remember you will not be in 20s forever fall in love, get hurt the sky is not falling take time to reflect have fun
