I’m European.
Last year, I moved to India.
What I experienced shattered my Western mindset.
Here are 10 life-changing lessons I learned in India that reshaped how I see the world:
Time Bends Here:
Indian trains can run 12+ hours late, yet no one panics.
I learned that life doesn't always follow a schedule.
Sometimes, the best moments happen when you stop rushing and let time find its own rhythm.
Scarcity Breeds Genius:
Farmers grow crops in deserts.
Street vendors haggle like Wall Street traders.
Constraints aren't limits
Work Should Be Sacred:
The West treats work like a punishment.
In India, even street vendors bring devotion to what they do.
You can turn anything into a calling—if you show up with presence.
Status Is Invisible:
Barefoot monks command more respect than CEOs.
Here, wisdom > wealth.
It made me question: What am I truly chasing in life?
Chaos is a System:
Mumbai's streets look chaotic, yet they move 20M people daily.
I learned that what seems disorganized often has its own rhythm and logic.
Less is More:
A street vendor serves tea for 5 cents but owns his time.
I realized freedom isn't about having more it's about needing less.
Noise Reveals Truth:
India has 780 languages, but a shared purpose unites them.
I learned that clarity of purpose transcends all barriers even language.
Nature is sacred:
Rivers like the Ganges are respected, not just used.
Respect for nature isn’t optional—it’s essential.
You’re Already Rich:
In India, people refuse bribes with a fake bill that says “I won’t pay.”
It’s a reminder that real value isn’t just about money.
The greatest wealth isn’t in your wallet—it’s in your integrity.
The Power Of Community:
In India, strangers become family in moments of need.
Connection is the foundation of both survival and joy.
India didn’t just change my perspective—it rewired it.
I see the world as bigger, richer, and more connected than ever before.
But the biggest shift?
It made me rethink how I live and work—and what true freedom truly means…
I’ve had the freedom to travel to 20 countries in 3 years—all because of my business.
