Pursuing Purpose

[Applause]

good evening

most of us die at the age of 25

and are buried at the age of 80.

certainly 25 we’re trying to do

something

[Music]

josh that you have in your life

is there until a particular point after

this

sop standard operating process

so when i first heard this most of us

die at 25

and a burning age of 8 years think about

their life

its purpose this isn’t it let me also

tell you even if you are successful

you will not be happy

let me repeat that success doesn’t

guarantee happiness

purpose guarantees happiness

the big difference because you know you

buy a lot of money a lot of being fake

success

still you can be comfortably miserable

and i’m so glad to actually speak to an

audience which consists of maximum

people

who don’t have to worry about basics

many years ago i found my purpose in my

life

and that is challenging until

[Music]

so let me tell you about my story and

probably i’ll give you some

tips on how to actually create a purpose

in your life

ready i get in my ears

i studied very well i work in

multinational companies

and amazing industries right from the

music industry

i used to work in the area with the

jewelry industry

the cricket industry they were working

in a

form called world which actually became

such a critical caller

[Music]

so you think about it it’s glamorous

but

my spiritual mother told me why am i

looking

for a job think about trading jobs

20 years ago and you know

what i said you know somebody like a

mentor tells you

that you do something

today i am a business mentor

it’s not easy to find a purpose

therefore it’s the same

beautiful thing the only purpose of

human life

is to find the purpose so actually i’m

going to talk about a very difficult

topic

but an important topic because if you

find it

then you are an inspiration for others

so coming back many years ago when i

started business

it was just another business but you

know somewhere i found that

india is a great country with lot of

literature culture

any traditions i started reading books

books

was my passion nowadays

i said okay can i apply channel first

principle

into my own business out of curiosity i

started reading it because it was

strategic thinker

let me tell you higher and higher in

your career your technical skills

doesn’t matter

the next day your management skills

matter and finally

it’s your leadership skills that matter

and leadership

is equal to strategic thinking

okay leadership is about strategic

thinking

and there’s a saying leaders don’t fail

their strategy speed

then one here’s an initial global

challenge

about strategy i got interested

i started reading more and more and more

and every day

as to apply some of these principles

into my business

a company which i started 20 years ago

and believe me

my business did not grow but business

did not change they transform

there’s a difference between change and

transformation every day we change

clothes

ready to change clothes that’s not the

real thing

transformation is irreversible for

example when a mob

becomes a butterfly true can the

butterfly come back a mom

so once you go to that level of finding

a purpose in your life

it’s amazing so when we started reading

china came over and got applications i

said wow

not bad

a lot of my friends

[Music]

supposed to be storytellers and going on

understanding hundreds of invitations

this is not enough let me warn you this

friends

popularity is not purpose

popularity is not substance

happy taste

i still average to three talks a day

this is the fourth talk so you know

because of the challenge

with the brand i’ve been going around

speaking travel 22 countries

in universities

much about china

[Music]

but technically you should go back and

verify yourself it’s called

self-auditing

i said no i don’t

was lost for many generations the

original text

and in 1905 when dr sharma shatnery

founded in mysore university

and luckily this is 100

[Music]

becomes bigger

yes i don’t know what happened to my

partners

[Music]

the people who are listening to me are

also getting attracted to each other

it is not motivational motivation

it’s inspiration so somebody said you

know what the difference between

motivation and inspiration

motivation is because of inspiration is

inspired

become whatever the problem

[Music]

captain’s close to the biggies of india

and the world

but the thing which i love the most is

i’m an academician

the purpose actually went on me to make

my previous name

gold medalist

from 23 years to 64 years the policeman

they are from the armed forces some of

them actually run the longest stop

exchange

real story

and your friendship can happen to

anybody

god has given something to everybody not

everything to everybody

look we are born with something unique

our problem is that we

talk about comparison into this country

is going to be two things

two seats comparison and competition

but education system has become an

examination

[Applause]
