When the whole world was watching television, we got one in 1992. My father could afford to buy me an old used motor bike in 2002 when I finished my college.

 

I used to travel by railway in my childhood because it was the cheapest mode of transportation. There are three categories of coaches in a train. Air-Conditioned coaches, non-AC reserved coaches and non-Reserved coaches. Non reserved coaches have a seating capacity of approximately 72 people but 500 people travel inside it. You can imagine even standing becomes difficult. I used to travel in this category because it was the cheapest.

 

Going through hardships in life, I had a very strong desire to grow and achieve success in life. I started reading autobiography of successful people and learnt that entrepreneurship is the only way to succeed in life. I was searching for a coach who can help me to grow in life, but I didn't know anyone. So, books became my coach. When you read a book, you develop a bond with the author. It happened with me, and I developed a bond with many authors. They became my emotional support. This bond grew stronger when I started watching their videos.

 

I wanted to become a doctor but could not get selected on government sponsored medical college, so went on to become a pharmacist by joining a pharmacy college. After finishing my pharmacy, I started working as salesman for diabetic drugs in a top pharmaceutical company in Bangalore. Here I learned about diabetes and its complications. I was among the top sales performer in my company and earned lot of motivational books. These books were very exciting as they could teach me to improve my life. I started reading them every day and started buying more of them. I worked in Bangalore for some time and came to Delhi to pursue my entrepreneurship dreams. I got married and soon thereafter I resigned from job and started a pharmaceutical Company in the year 2005.

 

Grass looks greener on the other side. This held good for me as well. It was not easy being an entrepreneur. I was struggling in my Business. My business was not generating enough cash. Although my wife was working, but due to some complications during her pregnancy she had to leave her job. Once again, I faced same problem, no money.

In 2006 my daughter was born. At that time my wife was dealing with her post pregnancy weight gain. She tried lot of methods to reduce weight, but nothing worked out. One day, early morning on breakfast table she was frustrated from her weight loss efforts, she said "you keep reading books all the time, why don’t you read something on weight loss". These were the divine words in my life, that changed my life forever.
