We are all in Sales

Most people think sales is a job title. That belief is why they stay stuck.

Sales isn’t a department—it’s a life skill. And if you don’t build it, your career quickly hits a hard ceiling.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re an employee, founder, or leader. Your skills don’t sell themselves. Your hard work doesn’t speak for you. The market doesn’t reward effort—it rewards persuasion. Nothing moves until someone is convinced.

Especially today. Markets are crowded. Attention is scarce. Competition is global. Competence is common.

If your career feels slow, stalled, or under-leveraged, stop blaming luck, politics, or timing. Instead, ask: How strong is my sales quotient?

In this market, there is no neutral position. You’re either selling your value—or you're being ignored.

The Secret to Great Public Speaking

Most people think public speaking is about confidence, eye contact, movement on stage, and flashy gestures. It’s not. The best speakers—think of the likes of Hitchens and Tharoor—aren’t special because of stage tricks or theatrics; they’re special because they speak well: clear pronunciation, strong vocabulary, clean grammar, and fluid delivery. Fix those, and people will listen intently whether you’re on stage, on camera, on the phone, or just catching up at Starbucks.

Watch this video to see why linguistic competence—not gestures or all the usual theatrics—is the real public speaking superpower.

Civilizational Abundance is here!

AI isn’t just another invention—it’s the engine accelerating every important invention today.

Yes, the world feels chaotic...but without doubt, we’re living in a time of great civilizational abundance—unlimited production and distribution tools, global reach, and leverage previous generations could only dream of.

The real question isn’t “Is abundance coming?”—it’s “Will you build while it’s here?”

Become a student of words

Words create our reality, and they can inspire, heal, or destroy.

If you want to influence, persuade, lead, and get what you want, you must become good with words. But while everyone wants to get better with words, very few actually study them.

In this video, I use Dr. Jaishankar’s (EAM, India) speech to show how powerful speakers use language to shape emotions, convey urgency, and drive outcomes.
