and who's seen the country will keep standing up for human rights and calling for the freedom of palestine. just like you and millions of other indonesians. because nothing can break the size of support that transcend borders. in the nation, by the way, is one of dozens of countries considering joining the brakes strategic finally alliance and as, as the brakes. now we're unveiling a brand new payment system for international trade, which is essentially n t dot 159 countries have already signed on to use this new currency for trade that represents by the way, 81 percent of all countries in the world times our check is on the

if you were to ask me, which is the most important profession one today, i would say it's better. i think we have this wonderful country where there is enough intrinsic demand for within the country. and there's enough external demand for what we do outside of the country, whatever big or small that happens in your life. no, never forget where you've come from. and onto the man who didn't get

a job of going to try. that was the only reason why you would do something on your own. it is a very scary thing if you start. but the only way to deal with it is to start to hello and welcome. i am auto from kids. in the world of, of changing the focus now more than ever is on india product. on visual i will be talking to some of the most influential people of our great country from all walks of life to bring you the unique view on india's culture. politics, history and the in france and then printed leaving one global state. my guest this week is no exception is a prominent in under put on a author and content create a very come on good medical. thank you. so it's a stainless guy that was kind of and cool, very cool. was born in 1919, she has a bachelor's degree in physics and an m b a. and he's been entrepreneur since 2008

. he was the founding ceo of group on india. and co founded nearby dot com platform connecting users with local motions, offering deals on services and experiences. very cool has offered 3 best selling books and has over 12000000 follows on social media. he's also an angel investor educator and public speaker. he's our liberal philosophy, emphasizes authenticity, resilience and continuous learning. pleasure to be on the same. yeah. same yet. i was very happy that i will have a crush media on the, on the shoulder that i know the guy said, maybe i should go, should i and, but you have a very interesting life. a graph is very much the bonding. i'm going to include camera, delia data, t, then you went to america, came back at the age of $24.00 and started startups. and now on your, on your foot, start up with something. yes, correct. so what makes you do all these things?

it's, it's just the fact that they have our lives, so we don't know why they've been planted on this planet. and all that i've told myself is if you have just one like, don't leave it with this one identity. so somebody asked me, what do you do on good? you know, i did, if i give them what designates another company. mm hm. you enjoy for that level. how much time do you have? because i do so many things that i would of to tell you everything that is to it. so what was the changing point? i went to the us at the age of $22.00. uh huh. and was it any big thing for the body to do a period stay in physics? so me to i was only and only fascinated by physics. ok. i bad point of time. i only envision her life was to become a scientist. autumn. this for not an astronaut. a space scientist to be precise, locate and also be like this cool scientists like shuttle han and the movies for days and all that. i know when that everything was happening for a plan, i got a full scholarship to go to the michigan state university for the experience, the program and those 2 years. i totally enjoyed my time,

but i never felt like i was totally happy. i felt like i was so good with the subject and then it came to me and it can lead to me. and so it gave me the success that way i would say as and say i, there's a person is that all start and he's doing so where he's meant to do this. but standing in front of the middle of being true to myself, i knew that i wasn't happy. so in the age of 24 and i decided to quit my ph. d program drop out of that much to the disappointment of my parents and come back to india and start my life all over again. you studied physics, you in the northern p as in physics. how much did that education help you and your journey as an on the very day and you know, the, the best thing that science teachers you, is this a way of looking at the way from a hypothesis perspective. ok, nothing is true until it's fully, and it doesn't matter to prove something new. start with the hypotheses. this must be true. and then you go about creating an experiment to prove that it is or not. that's how i live my life and nothing is true on the left,

solely proven it. so i seen that the ability to create structure in chaos and came from my training in the sciences, which is really how it doesn't onto the, on the broader life. is this one k or think you don't know what the next? maybe the end in 2000. it being on depend and india and entrepreneur, man who didn't get a job of going to try. that was the only reason why you were doing something on your, the buy or new when all of that a nice job and there's a common job and there are these nice, nice go see jobs and i had a really good job. no out of business school, i was a management consultant and management consulting is one of the most coveted jobs out of business. going to be do it any way you're traveling through this thing and 5 star hotels whom we think clients whose faces you'll see on the colors of newspapers and magazines, telling them on out there shouldn't be running their business. so it was as wide, but it was beautiful and to quit all of that to become an entrepreneur. again, my parents were like, what is it wrong with the why do you keep making these and, and decisions in your life 74, to buy yours? when i 1st, again, there was so what's happening in the country, number one,

number 2, big internet because of any, you know, to deal with these very cool start ups coming up and they were creating a dent. and they would as consumers, beginning to see the impact of that, then i just wanted to write it that way because i didn't know if i would get that john say, but again not. and i didn't want to leave with that. it could, i can sort of done that and i wish i had, and i'm so glad i i don't want has it changed since then? oh, it's such a defend was i know back then it was all about. you have to making this work because this is your last shorter buttons to today's generation. the setup that we had in the opportunities we sit on the way that the world is connected. mix the founder of today's so much more auditions so much more than vicious. and they know that they have multiple tries. they know that they want to feed and feed ready fall, so they've been gone very fast. they know that feeling it is not that. and it's, it's brilinta c 28 hours with such a passion but such and dr. with such a mission,

leading the charter saying we have with the void, this is ok please. this is our moment. this is our time. nothing's going to stop us and it is capital coming all the way and that is extension coming. i way that our customers and mach is reading bit, it's 8 so, so different from then all these opportunities are being offered in modeling. and oh, yeah, absolutely. and that's the fascinating part. i think we have this wonderful country where there is enough intrinsic demand within the country and there's enough external demand for what we do outside of the country. and so when you look at se software, there is this business model which is making into it, but make for it outside of india. mm. so you have these wonderful setups are a large ones who have their offices, their dev centers in india. they create software through the abilities of people that we have created and it's mostly made for outside of india, right? because they are the ones that would find it at the right price. find it just as competitive find is just as good offered add,

create value and so on. and then you'll have these uh, the to seek or did it the consumer brands nowadays. yes, we just like, no, let's not go to the retail store. let's not go through the distribution janet, let's just say that that key to the consumer. we have a great product to build and we can do that because we believe, and i know that it is a market very large market that is willing to adopt that, whether it's best services or it's boss, know, get out it's fashion or it's what not. i'm just fascinated by so many things coming in this country every now and then vote for it outside of the country and folders within both of us means you have to push me from the bins to my what does it mean crush me? any point did mean to you, i wouldn't make that much meaning funded by observation and my experience and what i mean by that is i never stayed in cuz me and i have mom and dad who grew up in between studies and catch me and moved out the video and even they got mad at me, so all of my gosh media routes and my culture comes from them looking at mine,

grandmother and my and went to another to another side when they would it totally experiencing it 1st hand in one sense. so for me, it was all about stories and it was all about culture, it was all about values. it was all about being grounded and remaining around it. i, i remember there's one thing that my mom always tells me that whatever big or small that happens in your life, no, never forget where you've come from. what my bed is wonderfully data is. they just acted as examples. i saw them and i saw them conduct themselves despite hardships, despite the need, any hard circumstances in my life, they never gave up on the values of what it is to be a good and is that something you will want to transferred to your own 3 children i know that that i think is the only thing i would want to do that no i, i almost say this that they are blessed to be born in 2 days in deal with so many things are taken care of by design and by the important opportunities are coming that way, and education is like booley and we didn't have access of all of that. they going

to the find a school is being taught by the find. those teachers assigned just came back from the fort a school trip, and he was competing with beans outside. and it's fascinating. my 1st flight was at 22 and that was 5th of the us, bought on a loan that my father to because that was the only way we could afford that one way to get in. and now they have all of those that to me. so i believe that the only job has credits is to give them the right sort of values. so what does it mean to be an end? and you said that this is what you're fed and start to. this is what you want to teach your children. what does your country potter for me? it stands for 3 things. one, it stands for a very deep rooted sense of culture and values that we have an attitude because of a history because of our faith is that that is gordon everyone. and by that measure, and i remember that like the statute, every thing has life and in that we should respect. and we showed up certainly according to the highest order. and i, and i love that about the fates,

but bitch people are raised and how that has really shaped up our identity number to is the theater. definitely, i didn't. i assigned myself. so lucky was born in 1918 when the country was going to its own struggles. we were still a very young company. we stayed odd but to see this transformation in 40 years and gets unbelievable. and no, you would have seen that from 1950 still with me yesterday. it doesn't feel like one lifetime. it seems like many lifetime i happen. and i remember the time with but it used to be there's no black and white television stuff and be now in the room. i know to hit the snow. is the signal coming or no, it showed from the room that needs to be an extra now everything is that i don't understand what it is to walk up to the television and doing the norm and see the big tv. you don't have that signature and it's such a fascinating time to hear life. and the 3rd thing is for me, it was dying that had to happen with finally,

i believe being recognized for which we are building. and even with that, we were almost like in the hiding, we were like, no shouldn't be step out. should we put our neck out should because i'd been out or not, but now it just feels like we are this very confident i got it moved out from a thinking age body. fully aware of we are wearing off our weaknesses. we had available for mishaps and out of whatever the mis doings pretty way winning to connect, we willing to improve and we're not going to take any random feeling about us. just face value, we're willing to defend ourselves in place of identity. so i just like this boring and vicious or dishes in the about a bad thing about us right now. what, what is your opinion about force and media? it's a double. that's why i would say it had a business beautifully quote. it says you are the average of the 5 people who spend most time with. i think that quote, to me why the division entered is, would, you would be average of the 5 ideas or content pieces that you most consume me

because that is going to determine who you become. right? if you go on a twitter or style, what are you to see and you can do content, which is for walk active, which is what of hate, which is always going to pinpoint this one did this, that one said, this is what's wrong. this is word that you're going to become that person because that's where we are as humans, we just hardwired ourselves by the conditioning that happens. but on the other hand, if you were to consume content that shows all the positivity in the world and uplifting and great stories of inspiration and motivation, you're going to believe that and become that. i think that choice remains with the individual and it becomes the responsibility of that sort of bed and still in cottage kids towards that now which we certainly do. we were always telling me that in those mind i'd watch content that makes you feel happy. and again, video, he just came back from a lady who was getting really homesick,

really was his 1st time and he was a, he was all crying, missing us. and he said, here's one thing. you have to go and become physically active and go for a swim. going to just walk under treatment images and don't watch social media numbers you. it doesn't make you feel like it is just entertainment. it is not education and you have to always follow this distinction between entertainment and education and anything that makes you feel that a life is helping you, anything that makes. so feeding on is this going unfortunately, the as a capability of making a free board. i'm glad that i'm on the side of education and learning because i wouldn't have it any other way. i can dance and sing for the lowest grade i the on social media. i am in social media. i have a very active presence on social media. i create content, yes. and that sort of thing and you're not on the english language, wikipedia page. i am not, i'm not right now. who does, i don't care if it's like it's, it's not, it's not something that validates my so how do you,

how do you manage to not beyond that you have i, i don't even know that they would be people who would try to be on sale to keep videos, i'm full. ok but, but i, i, so me, it's not in progress. so how do you, how do you react to criticism? because you are dealing with 20 or people in frontier or young generation is constantly let heard about criticism. i really feel that for somebody to this on a complete stranger online means that there is something broken in your life. you can be a truly happy person and throw in somebody else. i can find them. and to believe that a truly happy bus and we never told any because they just have to, they don't need to put somebody else don't to be happy, right? and the 2nd one really helps me as well, which is in all of this noise of trolling and heat and whatnot that happens on social media, is often some signal somebody who, but helps is trying to tell you something meaningfully, but not necessarily in the appropriate technology and so my job because i'm still

abstract the message from the tone of the message, somebody is abusing me, calling me names. but trying to tell me something that i shouldn't be doing something about that because my job and i think it's require some bit of maturity and wisdom and experience over the years to get to that point. but that's what i'm capable off. and i have loved that about myself, so i can instantly pick up the signal from that noise and say, for this person when calling me one of those names, is trying to hate it towards this one thing. and if i were to fix that one thing, it would only make me a better way to know if my son onto the other thing was really bought as jen z is the fear of failure. i guess i also didn't like failure for the longest time because when you're going through it, you almost feel like i wish i wasn't. and when it's only upon reflection that you and i did talk to you so much, it made you a stronger person of reimbursing me. what i don't like about failure, particularly in today's world, is we are constantly,

particularly in our cancer door to very quickly move on from my feet. and i feel that's the wrong approach. because if you very quickly, no one from your failure, you haven't digested and realize what it brought to you. so you're bound to fail again and i like it. and again. so the only thing that i tell is you cannot run away from failure and free body in this way, no matter how successful they are. they have food in the field in numerous times and the only difference between them and somebody else who continues to fan is that this said don't with that failure and digested and reflected and figure out what they learn from it. don't just do that, don't to run away from the they know what to do without a lot of fear of being good according to me. feel free to do it makes them videos. it does because they are not waiting for the big documents. so you guys are the one that easy and simple and not be ruffling any feathers, talking the board and nothing like that. i often see this, this is a very interesting way of, of thinking about it. fear for me is like

a muscle that you build up on me. so i often say that one of the better ways of dealing with failure is to actually try and fail every once in a way that doesn't cost too much. so here are some examples. go to mall and somebody from the finder piece and you're most likely my feet thinking they me check you out. they may get physically violent. they may call the cops of the guards and whatnot. but in that moment, when you feared between the 2, something about your reaction system in the elevator when you're taking through the lift, say hello to the stranger that you would never otherwise go to your boss or your manager. and ask for something that, you know, is very hard for them to give and nobody else has asked. it's quite likely they will say no to me, but do something new every day. that helps to be the most sense of how to deal with things. when you start doing that, you automatically train yourself with bigger and bigger and bigger failure. so we

were having this conversation before this talk uh there was a very interesting survey done in the us. people who had asked, what is it that you fear the most in life, the number to wasn't that number 2. mm. number one was public speaking while really public speaking in the us, according to that. so it's nice was they did as something that people fear the most . and why is that? because people don't want to be standing on stay as i b b, i must be looked at the loft at me. and i often say this, yes, it is a very scary thing if you start, but the only way to deal with it is to start. this was a very fascinating statement of your electricity unit out. you said success, we all get to see stories. we really good to hear the lesson is in the story, not the success. so the story is, i think this is one of my favorite stories, but i don't know how to think about. look ok. there's a lot for me is

a very interesting concept. and i think that i got lucky me and i've got lucky a lot of times a life. so i often think off what would have happened if that didn't happen. here's an example. i uh, as a science student had one invasion when i was in class and haven't been to us then that was pretty bad. so the idea is to clear the idea exam, go to, i didn't become the engineer that everyone was typical. and i tried it twice, didn't make it. i was never intelligent enough to collect the ideas survey at the beginning of the city. but that's what i'm like, my wife. and if i hadn't made a diety, i may have never met her. i may have met. so many different person and i've had a different life altogether. i come back from the us and i don't know what i'm going to do in life. and my mother is like, uh, well, you know, when i was reading this newspaper the other day and i saw this ad for a very young business school, see what you see of it. so i go and i really liked the concept. that's where i

applied. and that's where i did my and the year, which was the end of school of business. and that's frankly one year changed my life completely. i am in a consulting job. i wanted to get an email i the i as b, the my business school is alumni email grew saying, hey, we had a gentleman internet company and we are looking to set of business in india when looking for people to lead that. so if anyone's interested, but and i thought that was i standing and i played and i got that opportunity. and the next thing i know i was leading that entire business in india and i went back to them one day and i said, why did you choose me? because i'm sure they were other people who would have been just as capable if not more. and they were like, you know, surprising me, you were the only one who was like, wow, that's amazing, which is i assume is the, i didn't know whether to feel good or bad about it. because i gave the most is that advise the only one running with this so many so to the end of which has events that have happened in life when you don't know much would have happened if they did . so it's very easy for people to look at the end result. it's like, okay,

one of them can look at all the actually the fin fed, the national awards, everything that comes. and of course, i love that you'll get them the respect. but how many people are totally notified and how many people truly know what is it that you have given enough to get to this point? because that is what shape do you will not be awarded the end of no, that was the outcome. i'm really tempted to dallas to the of my alternate, i would love to. so you know this um, during my struggle period i had no money and i used to live in vendor east. and i used to because those there, there was no cost income companies. there was no direction. there is no live in no particular place to go to uh, nowadays that reality shows the costing company that. so how do you get time size to sit a trans locate to individuals to start from a band raised, go to a v d and come back and do 2 or 3 times just coincidence. and i would go and sit next

to a window seat and look outside. so one day i haven't been and there was a gentleman sitting outside near that in my seat. i sat next to him and he was looking outside and it was getting dark glasses. and after some time you said the but of this list. so looking outside on the guy. so you know, and then god and how we are. i said, come the middle of the board, my list going down was going say, which name is i will say that the colored company fan of good is troubleshooting. invite show us. like i said, taking an off cuz some of them someplace he got up and i discovered he was a blind man. that is said, it was unreal. that is so in say, potter blind man. to feel that i'm restless. and to tell me that to should we have the color to times and then what i know enough, you know, i, on the bradshaw green shirt or yellow shirt or something that i don't distorted and

then to can soup and the soul for the dental mind. so that is such a great to so many things that teach you less than the rest of their life when you see the balance between traditional valued and martin an expedition among the indian youth. cuz i, i feel again, a lot of the responsibility, i genuinely believe is unfair and things. if you were to ask me, which is the most important profession in the world today, i'd say it's better than me. good and bad profession can make or break this way. definitely, i mean, we a long so like, particularly not going to have somebody is such an important complement. you're going from observation. even cause known from the teaching that you'll get here done from the experiences. and i think that that is if they've grown that kids in the right values in that i culture, they will have that very strong foundation upon which you can read a lovely to, to please tony building me. if you desire it would be less skyscraper. if it was still a good deal down, what was the, what is, are meeting and make another one?

as long as the foundation is sec, you actually have anything to pay by depending on how the world is it a i think i don't think i can predict the future. i don't know where we will be both as a country and as of world and the next 2 to 3 decades. what i do believe that the one is sitting on but have the best available opportunities that we've ever seen. we in this country are going to experience in my opinion of gordon ad that we've seen, not seen for century, essentially a wonderful and, and i'm so wish on what this going to be a good experience in the next $2.00 to $3.00 decades economically, socially emotional need for sure, and the board that we would have within and the respect that greeting gardner from outside, that if you have the right values and there's a way of looking at things were set or just say we are one 5th of the was population. one of the youngest, if not the youngest, confusing the way with a timing economy me,

you can imagine how the next 30 years are going to on for the wavelength or define the economic strength of the words we've 100 certainly defined that go to printer because the strength of the way we're going to define the social economic strength of the woods. and i do believe that weiss with matter because it's always matters, but now we have the odessa to also express it. no, no, i know that you've never done before. so to very excited, thank you. i'm good way to go into that website and thank you for watching. join me next week for the intimate and compelling. sit down and let's talk products of the

the with the end of world war one. the movement for an indian independence from the british empire flared up with renewed vigor. the british responded to the growth of the national liberation movement with arrest and brutal violence. repression caused active resistance. in march 1919 at the call of mahatma gandhi, a peaceful strike began in the country. but the british responded with a new round of violence and far bade the indians to gather more than 4 people. on the day of the sea bass at the festival. a huge crowd of civilians gathered in the center of the city of i'm gonna start in northern india seeing base as outright

defiance. general reginald dyer gave the order to open fire on the on arms people. the barbaric execution claimed the lives of at least 379 indians, including 40 children, the youngest of who was 6 weeks old. the indian national congress considered the official figures to be underestimated and announced the death of more than $1000.00 civilians. the well known greatest newspaper, the morning post called dyre. the man who saved india gave him a sword and 26000 pounds sterling as a token of gratitude for the massacre. the amorous dar massacre went down in history as one of the most brutal crimes of the british invaders and only escalated the affair. struggle of the indians for liberation from the colonial yoke. the

the, the thousands of pro palestinian protest as gathering outside the democratic national convention of a new in chicago ultimately defying the pot. he's overwhelming support of israel is more on god and over a decade on libya, remembers the events of 2011, which published the country to k, o soft row west to let encourage and remove, cut off from power and had him to get through the call. but since october, the 7th, it has been extremely challenging to receive news from my family. that's a long make a phone call, especially since they're not at home anymore with violets and gosh, are showing no sign of amazing how the students, students who found that.
