Realize Your Dreams Heart of India

I acknowledge my dad for his commitment to being of service.

His scholarship and mentorship to Manish transformed him from a slum dweller to an engineer in a software company and a co-founder of a start-up.

His contribution raised Manish and his family from poverty to prosperity, making a massive difference to him and his family.

Dad's commitment to make a bigger difference to Manish led him to insist that I meet Manish to support his business. I met him and invited Anju, one of our RYD Coaches, to gift him 2 coaching deep-dives, which we offer to anyone who reaches out to us to explore RYD as their structure of success for their good to great journey.

The values that Dad and Mom have inculcated in us is the source of who I am and the work I do - love, kindness, truth, honesty, being of service, excellence, joy of learning, gratitude, reverence.

One of my dreams was that once my business becomes sustainable, we would launch Heart of India program to take entrepreneurship to the less privileged in our country - young people who are economically poor, from rural and semi-urban areas, non-English speakers to enable our country to be the world's most developed, beautiful, greenest nation with her citizens happiest, healthiest and the most prosperous.

I am happy and grateful to share that we have onboarded Manish as our first coachee as part of RYD Heart of India program, giving him Rs 6.75 Lakhs scholarship for the same. Since anything free does not make a difference, he will give Rs 5000 per month as his gurudakshina to his RYD Coach.

As part of RYD Heart of India scholarship, he will get one year of coaching across the 3 RYD growth levers - leadership depth, craft mastery and business coaching - to support him to joyously lead himself and his business from good to great, realize his dreams and have it all with ease and grace; and be a part of our community of business owners, CEOs and leaders as their equal.

His being a part of our community will massively contribute to each RYDian because Diversity is the foundation of the good to great journey and Relationship of Equals is a key Leadership Depth Gear 3 distinction that he will give an opportunity to all of us to practise.

2 days back, I was watching 12th Fail on Netflix with Aditya. I had tears rolling down my cheek as my heart went out to the protagonist and the other students in the movie. The Universe is very kind to give me an opportunity to do something about addressing the problem that the movie raised awareness about. This effort may be a drop in the ocean but drops collected over a long period of time make the ocean.

Thank you, Dad, for being my hero and a huge inspiration for me 💜

Thank you, Anju, for your love, trust and belief, that has you take on being Manish's wind beneath his wings and his trampoline to transform his every fall into a leap to a higher place than before.

Thank you, RYDians - present and past, for your love, trust and belief without which we would not have reached where we have reached today, enabling us to contribute to Manish and holding space for many more.

Keep learning, implementing and contributing to joyously lead yourself and your businesses from good to great, realize your dreams and have it all with ease and grace while having lots of fun and adventure along the way.

Loving you,
