BOOK I AM READING THIS WEEK
This week I started reading "Mind without Fear" by Rajat Gupta.
Rajat Gupta is one of the most prolific Indian-origin professionals, who went on to become the global head of McKinsey and created an enviable reputation for himself, before all came crashing down as he was convicted of Insider Trading and sentenced to 2 years in prison.
As crazy as it sounds, he chose not to defend himself during the trial.
Upon his release, this book is his account of what happened and his learning from it.
I found the book fascinating and full of lessons one can learn from his experience.
Rajat was one of the founding members of ISB and as an alum he always occupied a soft corner in my heart. It was really hard to imagine someone like him committing the crime he was accused of. The book pacifies my heart a bit, where Rajat admits how what he did was a mistake but not a crime.
Wonderful read, if you are looking for a non-fiction book with the joys of a fictional thriller.
As my book DO EPIC SHIT touched sales of 120,000+ I have launched a pan-India tour, where I will be giving away 10,000+ signed copies of my book.
You can book the tickets here.

Would you want to know your future, assuming you cannot change it?
Here are the responses:
Observations:
1. Irrespective of age, MOST people do not want to know their future, if they cannot change it.
2. The big reason was "it spoils the fun/curiosity/excitement."
Now, go to this week's question, for the 2nd part :)

From a 44 to a 24-year-old Someone on Twitter asked:"Men who are 31+, please drop one piece of advice to men between 18 to 30 years. It can be about anything!" Here is my response (applies to all genders, not just men): Take care of your body:In your 20s, the damage you do to your body due to irregular eating, no exercise, irregular sleeping, substance abuse, etc., will not show. Because the body is still young, resilient, and able to bear the burden of your mistakes. BUT, come your 30s and...

I studied in Gujarat I was sitting next to a young, sharply dressed guy on an early flight to Mumbai. Calmly opened his laptop as the seat belt sign went off, working on what looked like a complicated Excel sheet. Worked through the flight. After 1.5 hours, as the hostess walked the aisle requesting to place your seats upright, he shut down the laptop and gave me a “I think I am ready” look. Good thing the middle seat was empty. We got talking. I presumed he was preparing for an important...
