Explosively Inspiring



Again i am going to talk about a book.I guess we all love success stories.We like to hear how and why successful people became what they are...




I happened to read one book some three months ago,and i am still reading it for nth time.It is that addictive that I thought i shall share this with you.

"Stay hungry,stay foolish" is a famous Steve Jobs quote.Thats the title of the book.It the story of 25 IIM Ahmedadbad Alumnies ,who started their own entreprises,instead of staying at the high paid corprate jobs.It includes the well known ventures like naukiri.com,subhiksha(the reatail chain),India Infoline,Mphasis,Sintex etc to name a few.


Its a dynamite.It will explode inside your brain and set fire in you.You wont be the same person after reading it.
If you have read alchemist,i would say this is a realistic counterpart of that.Alchemist inspires you by telling a

romantic story of a boy chasing his dream,here we have 25 real stories which will keep inspired for ever.

i am far from an entrepreneur.I lack the daring as well as energy to be one.But still i found it very inspiring,because it pushes you to do something.Doing is living.More you do more you experience and hence more you live.It pushes me to make my life broader,deeper,richer with fascinating experiences.


Its also is the story of new,shining,daring India.Its often said that "When nation is progressing,its leaders are sleeping".In our case,yes,if our leaders are awake they wont let us progress.These 25 people who's story is covered in this book,represents the set of new age entrepreneurs who made our country progress.Who once again ,may be after centuries ,made India a place where things are happening.



Happy reading!
