"life is temporary, it's short, time's running out - even though there might be scepticism about what you're doing, just do it"

In Part 1 we focused what Anand Mistry took from his family backstory and upbringing that inspired him along the journey to creating ProjectChakra and what he learnt from his first visit to India. We also got to understand what he gained from his time there that made it obvious what path he knew he had to take, and something that life in a corporate career wouldn’t be able to offer.

"happiness is when what you think, say, and do, are in alignment; and projectCHAKRA enables me to action what I think and say" [Anand Mistry]

In Part 2, we find out what came next for him following the decision to dive all-in on social entrepreneurship. This is arguably the more important part of the conversation, which includes the valuable lessons YOU will be able learn from if you’re thinking about pursuing anything that you have a special interest or passion for, or are in the process of doing so already. Expect to learn how to deal with the internal and external pushback you’ll inevitably go through when trying something different to the friends and family around you, how to not let perfectionism stop action, what it’s like coming from a culture that’s frugal with their money, aligning your values with your actions, and lots more.
