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: Image
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? Image
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. Image
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. Image
Noise Reveals Truth:

India has 780 languages, but a shared purpose unites them.

I learned that clarity of purpose transcends all barriers even language. Image
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. Image
The Power Of Community:

In India, strangers become family in moments of need.

Connection is the foundation of both survival and joy. Image
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.

The Guidance Business Blueprint shows you how to build a thriving income in just 3 hours a day—without manipulative marketing.

Every entrepreneur I know looks up to titans like:

Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, or Elon Musk.

But, this man stands head and shoulders above all.

In 1930, he wrote a secret manuscript about unlocking your mind's potential.

Here are his 5 ideas that every founder must know... 🧵 Image

I’m 30.

I guide entrepreneurs for a living.

But my deepest insights didn't come from business books.

They came from Carl Jung's work on the human psyche.

Especially... Image
"The Red Book"

205 pages of stunning illustrations and profound insights into the human psyche.

Jung wrote it during his darkest period when he experienced vivid visions every night.

It nearly drove him insane... Image

In 1974, Steve Jobs set off to India in search of the meaning of life.

Less than a year later, he came back with insights that made Apple a $3.4 trillion business.

Here are his 5 forgotten lessons that will reshape how you see life: Image
In 1974, a 19-year-old Jobs sold everything he owned and bought a one-way ticket to India.

He wandered the streets of Delhi barefoot, lived simply, and studied Eastern spirituality.

His college friends thought he'd lost his mind.

But Jobs knew something they didn't...
True innovation doesn't come from the mind.

It comes from the space between thoughts...

What Zen masters call 'mushin.'

That's why Jobs meditated even during his biggest product launches.

But, few know who had the greatest impact on his success... Image

I left my corporate job at Bloomberg to travel the world, seeking something deeper.

I sat with shamans in the Amazon and found stillness in a monastery in Nepal.

The nomadic path had a special place in my heart.

5 valuable lessons it taught me:
1. You Won't Find Your Purpose By Thinking About It:

I tried reading, journalling, and planning.

Nothing worked.

Purpose comes when you take action, explore, and build.

Before you feel ready. Image

I'm 30.

When I was young, I wasted years of my life working a soulless corporate job…

Then I found Alan Watts's teachings on how to make meaningful money.

Here are his 7 Laws for Creating a Life You Love: Image
1/ "Figure out how you get paid for playing."

Most people feel guilty charging money.

But when you work for others that feel like play your clients feel it.
2/ "I'm a successful man in business. I hate business."

You must find a way to do business that lights you up.

Watts on finding people to do the work you hate ↓

Meet Rick Rubin.

An eccentric outsider who knows nothing about music, yet Adele, Johnny Cash & Jay-Z turn to him for guidance.

He went on Joe Rogan and shared some mind-blowing revelations on unlocking your creative genius.

Here are 8 of his most shocking insights: Image
1/ Create Your Best Work, Then Let Go

Don't be upset when you create good work and it doesn't perform.

Even if it succeeds, you may never know why.

All you can do is make something good put it out there and hope for the best…
2/ There's No Right or Wrong Way to Create.

The best art comes from being unapologetically yourself.

Discovering your style is what makes you stand out from all the copycats.

This is even the case with the most famous rappers:
