About this ebook

In this book, you will read about my life and learn how and why traditional structures and ways of doing things have never really worked for me. Throughout my life, I've learned how to break away, make often frightening leaps, and forge my own path, flying by the seat of my pants! It's not always easy to run against the wind. You will encounter resistance. You will have doubts and doubters. You will need an inner resolve, one that can be cultivated and enhanced. Having grown up in India, Nigeria, the United States, and now calling Australia home, I have found that when it comes to forging your own path, there are no established rules. You have to make them for yourself. These ideas apply to life as well as business. This book will help you to learn how to back yourself. In developing my own rules, I've learned how to break away from expectations and unhelpful pressures, and found that the only way to fly is by truly winging it!

Ratings and reviews

Really good book to get some direction on your life/business. It puts many things in perspective. Somethings when put simply can have the most impact. This book has helped me clarify and understand what lies in my heart and why and how I can stay motivated in the pursuit of the vision I have for myself and my life’s work. This book has instantly become an invaluable tool in my own entrepreneurial and personal life journey and has moved into my top list of books I’ll read again and again.

🎾The author shows us how rather than being a follower, we can forge our own path, and that is what would lead us on the journey to success. 🎾Also, another thing which we should keep in mind is to not let anyone get to us, but rather think for our own self instead of keeping other's expectations. 🎾A very insightfully engaging read full of positive perspectives that has the capability to break the stereotypical ice. Recommended for all genres of readers especially for people who want to make everything their own way.

Author’s perspective is defined beautifully. Language used is simple and can be easily understood by everyone but the deep meaning those words possess demands concentration. The cover of the book is completely different and is eye catchy. The choice of words is just as amazing as the writing skills of the author. So, there is absolutely no reason left to not pick this book up. I will just advice you all to stop whatsoever you are doing, grab it, and start reading. I bet you will not regret. I would strongly advice everyone to read this out.
