LEARNING FROM LIFE – CONCLUSION

  1989 was the watershed year of my life; though the three enterprises of which I was one of the founding members were all doing well, from my perspective it was a disaster year; several things like my father’s death, wife suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis, couple of raids by Sales Tax and Excise officials at the factory and peaking of my asthmatic disturbances happened one after another or sometimes simultaneously in a matter of a few months. This made me to introspect seriously and the outcome was the 4F Framework. The gist of the framework is Follow fundamentals that are essential for life Have faith in yourself  Protect family that represents values and culture  Manage finances effectively. Dr. Paul Nurse[1], a Nobel laureate in his book ‘What is Life’[2] explains the five core elements that form basis of all living beings – 1. Cell  2. Gene  3. Evolution by natural selection  4.

GROWTH & CHANGE

Behind every successful man, there is a surprised woman.  But behind every happy man, there are many silent women.  In the 21st century, driven by technology with a growing number of gratificationseekers, understanding oneself in terms of one’s potential and limitations to lead a happy and fulfilling life is increasingly becoming complex.

My mother tells me that when she was relaxing after lunch in the main hall of our ancestral house, on a cosy afternoon towards the end of July, I popped out of her, as if in a tearing hurry to see how the real world looks like. She also tells me that no one was around at that tim...

LEARNING TO LIVE IN THE PRESENT – MICRO ENTREPRENEURS

  The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness. -Abraham Maslow, American Psychologist (1908-70) In a world that often feels overwhelmed by the past or consumed by the future, it’s important to remember the power of living in the present moment. Embracing the present not only allows us to fully experience life’s joys and challenges but also cultivates a mindful and fulfilling existence. Having grown up in an old locality[1] of Bangalore, very close to the main business district situated around the Mahatma Gandhi road, I was familiar with microentrepreneurs[2] – typically street vendors, push-cart vendors, petty shop-keepers and even auto drivers. Though I have been living in this locality for most of my life, it was only after registering for my doctoral research in the area of entrepreneurship (2002), I started observing them closely. Most of these entrepreneurs have migrated to this locality from different regions of Karnataka, neighbouring Stat...
