The busiest people have the most leisure!

“Everything is easy when you are busy. But nothing is easy when you are lazy.” – Swami Vivekanandha

I heard this quote a few years ago from my friend, for a second it had not made much sense but then I had a big bulb-on moment 💡. This quote has been my friend, every time I felt I didn’t have time for something important. The problem is not the lack of time, but it is always the way I manage my time.

Some of the top successful people I know are the ones who have an abundance of time. 20 years ago, when I worked for indya.com a Star Group of company, as a programmer, I would often write to our awesome CEO Sunil Lulla about improvements we could make to our Channels. Sunil always had time to reply even though I was one of the junior employees. And I would feel appreciated, happy, and inspired to do more 😍. I see the same quality in ID Foods Founder P.C. Mustafa. He says he is the chief customer care officer for his company and goes through every email and feedback their customer gives. 👍👍

Whenever I feel overwhelmed by the amount of work on my plate I remember the golden words Deepak Chopra gave to a friend of mine. “When you don’t have time, Slow Down”!! When I heard it for the first time I was like, what?? But then, it made sense. When we slow down we will be able to think clearly and prioritize things. It’s important to pick a speed that is comfortable for us. There is always scope to improve creativity, speed, and efficiency. When we avoid time waster activities and consistently prioritize, we will always have time for the most important things in life.

Make it a day of prioritizing what is important to you!😎🙌

The only way you’re successful and happy is when you lead an honest life - Ms. Rose Blumkin From being Pennyless to selling her company for 60 Million Dollars Ms. Rose Blumkin’s story is made up of pure Grit, hard work, and smart work. She never went to school and did not know a word of English when she arrived in the USA with her husband. She worked hard and smart, saved 2,500 $ and started a furniture store, grew her business, and later sold it to Warren Buffet for 60 Million $ As I read her story three things stood out for me, 1. She never hesitated to ask , even when the majority of the people rejected to give her furniture on credit, she didn’t quit. She kept on seeking until she found a person who would give. 2. The second thing is her love and respect for her customers . Any business that truly cares for its customers and keeps adding value has to thrive. 3. Age is just a number . When she was 95 years old, her grandchildren threw her out of her own compa...
