WHERE DID IT ALL START?

I love the subject of money.

I have had some great adventures with money. It was no less than a roller coaster ride. I started playing with money ever since I got out of college.

I started investing in various tools with the intention to make my money work for me. Some were good investments, some bad, and some worst.

Even though I did not have enough money, I always ensured that I keep on investing whatever money I can.

One of the biggest influences on me when it came to money was the RICH DAD POOR DAD series of books. I have about all the books in the series. I read it and made notes and then tried to follow the teachings.

On the path of becoming financially free I started my own business. It ran quite well for few years and then I failed. All the investments that I had made were used up to close and come out of my failure.

In those years when I was in business I learnt the most valuable lessons about money, people, and life. I jotted down my lessons and realisations in writing pads, diaries, computers, and any writing material that I could lay my hands on.

The vast knowledge that I had accumulated were lying scattered everywhere.

To overcome my weakness in business I went into sales. The profession of sales opened me up to entire new world and opportunities. I started reading books on sales. Any book that had selling as the topic, I bought it and read. I practiced whatever techniques were given. Slowly and steadily I evolved my own style of selling. I sold entrepreneurial coaching seminar and went on to become one of the brightest sales personal in my organisation. I started making notes on my selling techniques, refining it over a period of time. I started coaching the sales team on the techniques of selling. I showed them how to close a deal.

Then I started coaching entrepreneurs on how to set up processes and systems in their organisation. I introduced customized tools to systematize their day to day operations. This helped the entrepreneurs create a system driven organization.

The transformation was visible after a period of time. I once again started writing about what I was doing and how it was transforming the way entrepreneurs did business.

I was sitting on a huge pile of notes about everything that I had learnt. I was carrying it with me wherever I went. I wanted to do something with it.

And then I discovered blogging. I thought, “Putting my content on blogs will be a great idea.” I started blogging. One was paid, few were on free platforms.  I started writing and posting about lots of topics.

“Blogging is not just about creating content and posting it online”. This again I learnt the hard way. I burnt my fingers and lost money on that too.

I closed my blog.

But the idea of blogging really fascinated me. I started reading books on blogging, watching YouTube videos, making notes. I wanted to make a comeback with blogging.

One of the biggest realizations I had about blogging was – I need to keep on posting blogs with patience, perseverance and passion.

So, here I am, back with blogging. This time my topics are money, personal finance, sales, peak performance and all the topics that can help create a life worth living.

I am presenting in the blogs simple yet effective “How to...’ tools and Actionable that can be followed by anyone to get the desired results. The ideas that flow into my contents are from my real life experiences that includes my failure as well as success.

Financial freedom is a wonderful thing, and it's my mission to 

help you be a Rich.

I invite you to join the community. I am sure you can learn a lot 

about money, sales, entrepreneurship and life from what I have to

 share.

I am giving entrepreneurship another chance. This time it’s going to be online, in the form of a blog and YouTube channel.

As for the matters of money, my romance with money still continues.
