There was a time when I felt invisible.

Despite working hard, honing my skills, and having over 20 years of corporate experience, I struggled to make an impact. 

Recognition and opportunities always seemed just out of reach, leaving me frustrated as I watched others advance while I remained unnoticed.

Then I discovered the power of personal branding—and everything changed.

I realized that no matter how talented or experienced you are, if you don’t position yourself effectively and build a strong personal brand, your success will always be limited.

By immersing myself in personal branding, LinkedIn networking, and content creation, I transformed my personal brand and it opened to sea of opportunities. 

I went from being overlooked to becoming India’s Leading Personal Branding Mentor, an Amazon Best-Selling Author, and a TEDx Speaker.

I built meaningful connections, attracted high-value opportunities, and gained the recognition I had been seeking for years.

One big lesson I learned from my billionaire real estate mentor, CA Mayur Mehta, has changed how I see investing forever.

Before investing, always ask one question: 

What is the objective of an investor?

Not comfort. Not familiarity. Not proximity to home.

The objective is simple and uncompromising: 

Go where returns will be the highest.

The biggest difference between average buyers and wealthy investors is here: 

Most people believe: “Profit happens when I sell.”

But Wealthy investors book profits at the time of buying, i.e.,  book profit from day-1.

If you enter late, no selling strategy can save you , 

If you enter early, time works for you automatically.


If you want comfort, invest where everyone is already living , 

If you want wealth, invest where everyone will live tomorrow .


That’s not optimism. That’s strategy.

Can you tell me what is your objective of investing?

You know this, right?

Our time on this beautiful earth is limited.

Still, we waste so much of it on things that don’t really matter.

Why?

Because most of the time, we think only about “me.”

My growth
My money
My family
My life

Nothing wrong with that.

But when life is only about me, something is missing.

That’s why many people :

- feel busy… but empty inside
- Successful… but confused,
- Moving fast… but without a mission

You are not born just to
- get a degree,
- get a job,
- buy a house,
- buy a car,
- and retire.

You are here for something bigger.

A reason,
A purpose,
A mission that goes beyond you,

Pause for a moment.

Ask yourself honestly this Sunday?

Why was I born?
What am I really here to do?

Sometimes, one right question can change everything.

At 38, he realised salary is not security !

This came up in a recent conversation with a senior professional.

-Well-spoken,
-15+ years in a reputed organization,
-Earning well by any standard,

Midway through the discussion, he paused and said something simple—but heavy:

“I earn well… but everything still depends on my next salary credit.”

No drama. No fear. Just clarity.

That’s when it hits many professionals around this age.

Your lifestyle is stable,
Your reputation is strong,
Your income looks impressive on paper,

But remove the salary—and the structure shakes.

1. EMIs don’t pause
2. Responsibilities don’t reduce
3. Plans don’t wait.

That’s when the distinction becomes clear:

 Salary is reliability. Assets are security.

Salary depends on:

1. Performance reviews,
2.Organisational decisions,
3. Market cycles,
4. How long you can stay relevant,

But safely and Security depends on:

1. Cash-flowing assets,
2. Long-term planning,
3. Decisions made early, not urgently,

He wasn’t worried. He was thinking ahead.

Not about quitting work. Not about “getting rich.”

But about building a base where: Income doesn’t stop with age.

Because real security isn’t losing your job. It’s never being trapped by only one source of income.

What say?

If this sounds familiar, it’s because many professionals reach this realization quietly—usually in their late 30s or early 40s.

The smart ones act on it early.

DM “SECURITY” if this conversation feels close to home.

Clarity precedes control. Control creates freedom.

Wealth creation is not rocket science.

Yet most people never experience it. 

Why?

Because you are limiting your opportunity to geography.

Your comfort is the number one wealth killer.

The real truth most people don’t tell you : 

Money does not grow fastest where life is comfortable.

Money grows where development is uncomfortable but inevitable.

By the time your local broker talks about it,  the real money is already made.

Remember :  Wealth creation is simple.

Wealth follows vision, not pin codes.

Think bigger. Think earlier. Think beyond your city.

What do you say?

Let me share one thing with you: You are not your bank balance.

Your bank balance is only a receipt of the value you’ve created in the market so far.
 
 Higher value creation→ higher balance
 Lower value creation → lower balance

So… who are you, really?

You are:
 1. Your thinking — how you see problems and possibilities
 2. Your skills — what you can repeatedly do well
 3.  Your reputation — what people trust you for
 4. Your relationships — the goodwill you’ve built over time
 5. Your ability to solve problems and create impact

I’ll add one bonus : 

6. Your character — who you remain when no one is watching

So please don't worry about your present bank balance.

Build who you are.

The numbers will follow.
