1. Dream big but dream with your eyes open
• Dhirubhai not only dreamed unbelievably big, but was able to see these “impossible” dreams of his come true in his own lifetime. Not many people get to do that!
• About three years ago, when I became, briefly, a person of national importance owing to an act of entrepreneurship, a poster with my face on it found its way to every post office, railway station, and police station in this country. »
2. Think big"The White Tiger”
A Thinking Man (Half – backed)
It's amazing. The moment you show cash, everyone knows your language.
He counted the money—ten thousand rupees—heard what I wanted, and asked for double. I gave him a bit more, and he was happy.
Dhirubhai opened 101 outlets on one single day.(Money is the by product of good work) »

3. Hold on your dreams...
• Other taxi drivers... And Balram. (The White Tiger)
• Hold on your dreams and they are bound to come true.
• When you want something so badly, the Universe, as Paul Coelho puts it, nudges you in the right direction and conspires to make it come true. (Dhirubhaism) »

4. The arm-around-the-shoulder leader
• I shook Mohammad Asif out of his trance. "Take my car and get these women home, first of all."
• "Let my boy go," I told the policeman loudly. "He's got to get the people in there home. Whatever you want to deal with, you deal with me."
• Dhirubhai, however was totally unafraid of getting close to his men. It was natural behaviour by him.

5. The Dhirubhai theory: Supply creates a demand
• “I was one of the drivers in the early days...” »
• Dhirubhai was not an MBA. Nor was he an economist. In fact he was only a Matriculate.
»
Conclusion
• We can compare Balram with Dhirubhai in some points of living life, but they both are very different in their work habits and way of getting success. Balram stands as a man who taken risks like Dhirubhai and got success but his risks were very different. »
