An Entrepreneur’s Journey of Transformation

Bursting the Bubble

May 31st, 2007 Posted in Flows

So I finally did it… I burst the bubble. You probably have no idea what I am talking about but that’s ok… I’ll try to explain.

I have always felt that I lived in a world… a world that wasn’t mine. It was a world full of other people’s desires and dreams. I wasn’t too sure of what I wanted myself, but I knew I wanted something… something great.

I followed the rules. I did what I was told. They told me it was the right thing to do. The thing every man should do. This was life. And there was nothing else.

So I did. I followed the rules. The rules set by others, which I did not question.

I made the grades… got the degree… got the job. But who was I… who am i? …

So one day… I burst the bubble.

Some of you may be very confused at this point. I was trying to practice a new technique of just letting my mind flow when I write without actually looking at my monitor. I learned that too many times our mind gets in the way. A mind that is too full of fear… anxiety…

Now to the meat and potatoes… I quit my job. I was four months into a job that I was excited about. I thought it was the best job I could find. But what happened? I knew there was something better. Just something… This something you spend such an enormous time in your life working for. For most people, this something is working to get you through the day.

Well… the world changes and so can you…this is what I have realized. You don’t have to do what you’ve been told. You are capable of such incredible change that you can do… anything. This anything… the way you want it. People are now making a living by doing seemingly nothing… maybe just 4 hours a week…. the anything they love. Anything in a world where you make your own rules. This thought has planted a seed that has grown by time. The seed was watered by my thoughts… and the seed grew. It grew larger and larger to a point where I couldn’t ignore it anymore. I had to do something. And so I did.

I threw away everything for a new beginning. But I threw away nothing. Because what I had was really something of nothing.

Now I’m working on a path that I feel will fulfill all of my desires… it is who I am. It will be an endless journey of continuous growth… life…

I’ve always wanted to do something great… on a scale that was unimaginable. I just never knew … how… the possibility. But now I know.

I seek to revolutionize education around the world. I will revolutionize education around the world… to build the foundation for the next million years. I see many challenges… I see my challenge… my challenge to solve…

I am finally on my way…

I have given it much thought, and I want to start in a place that will be the cornerstone of civilization to come. I believe this place is India.

In the next few months, I will get rid of everything I own… to embark on a journey of massive uncertainty… guided by massive certainty. This is the mission I will embark on… a life’s mission… a deeply satisfying mission.

This is just a first of many to come. I hope to learn more about myself and the world around. I hope to inspire you. I hope you will find… something… something that grows… a seed… a seed of unimaginable potential…

Life is a beautiful thing. See it… hear it… feel it… live it.
