Fat-free at 43!
How I shed only 10kgs in a year to get to this shredded look.

The 3T Model
1. Track
2. Train
3. Transform

(long post alert - you might want to bookmark this for future reference)
1/ Track

Track your calorie-in (how much you eat) and calorie-out (how much you burn).

An average adult burns/spends around 2000-2500 calories a day.
One can use a smart-watch/ring to figure this out.

However, our food intake is rarely tracked.
Which makes all the difference.Image
The ONLY way to lose fat/weight in the body is to get to a calorie deficit.
Which means, you consume lesser calories than you spend.

When we get to a 7000-7500 calories deficit, we lose ~1kg of fat.
(the reverse is also true - 7.5K calorie excess = 1kg fat gain)Image

20 years back, at the age of 24, I got my first ever job.
It paid me Rs. 14,746 per month in hand.

In 2 years, at 26, I was earning 12L per annum.
Another 3 years, it reached 33L per annum.

Here is how it happened...
In Mar '04, at the age of 24, I dropped out of my PhD program at Michigan State University and came back to India.

What made the decision easy was the 100% scholarship I was on.
There was no tangible loss of money.
Just the intangible burden of letting down everyone in my world.
With no goals, no plans and no visibility over my future, the first thing I needed was financial independence and stability.

I had to get a job.
Any job.

I tapped into my (limited) network, spoke to my friends, applied through newspaper adverts, went for walk-in interviews.

Do you know which animal kills most humans every year?

If you are thinking wild animals — lions, elephants, tigers — no.
If you are thinking snakes — good guess, but not the right one.
If you are thinking mosquitos — great guess. That's #2.

Do you know what's #1?
Humans :)

WE kill more humans than any other animal every year.
War, violence, fights, terrorism.

We somehow believe that the world is split into us and them.
And we feel that for someone to win, someone else has to lose.
That's what we have been fed every day.
That the world is finite — its wealth, growth, and opportunities.
And the only way one gets wealth, growth or opportunity is to snatch it away from someone else.

8 things that parents kill within their kids

A thread...
1/ Kids are born with no other fear except that of falling.

Every other fear, they learn while living.
As parents we are largely guilty of instilling those fears in them.

Parents kill their fearlessness.
2/ They are born with the ability to immerse themselves.
In play.
And focus is a super power today!

As parents we disturb this immersion, by asking them to now eat, poop, bath, study, go for classes.
If only we allowed this immersion to continue.

Parents kill their focus.

The best books I read in 2023

(giveaway) thread...
1/ How to do the work by @Theholisticpsyc

Been following Nicole for a while now and loved her book as well. Even in parts where I found myself disagreeing, I found myself challenged a lot.

2/ God, Human, Animal, Machine: Technology, Metaphor, and the Search for Meaning

I don't even know how I landed up with this book - but it was clearly the surprise of this year.
Fascinating take on how technology and consciousness are (?) overlapping.

Sold, 25,000+ copies of my third book in just 2 days, raking in sales of $125,000+ (Rs. 1Cr+) from 32 countries.

Best part?
We gave away a mind-blowing Rs. 73Cr ($8.8M) worth of value.

Here is how we did it...
In Aug 2023, @AlexHormozi launched his latest book $100M Leads, in a grand online event.

I remember watching his magical performance, feeling inspired and awestruck in the same go.

And then my usual awesome question popped:
"What is this telling me?"
I knew instantly I wanted to do something similar for my third book - Make Epic Money.

Discussed the idea with my publishers Penguin - they loved it.

In Sep, we decided on the dates:
Nov 26th: Online event + start of promo sale
Nov 28th: End of promo sale
