Raj Shamani reveals his love life, family lessons & building King's Brand | Karishma Mehta | Ep 43

“For me hustle is a way of life. Because that’s all I saw my father do. He went from the streets to owning a multi-million dollar business today only because he never stopped grinding. He’d tell me me, ‘Tum chahe jo karo, itni mehnat se karna ki tum no.1 ban jao!’ And le lived by being an example. So when I started my business, I knew that’s how I wanted to do business.
And today, 10 years later, at 26, I’ve realised it was the biggest lesson I could have gotten. Because in business, there is no alternative to excellence. I’ve learnt that no matter what business you are in, if you are the absolute best at it, nobody can beat you, chahe fir tum floor cleaner hi kyun ho!”

How's that possible.. He said he could not speak English at all ...cut 2 he comes to Mumbai ..starts speaking English like a pro...starts running a podcast in all segments...🙆u should have asked him how and what all he did in achieving that attitude in English ..ur podcast without this question is total waste as his journey was so smooth and not at motivational...maa ka Laadla types..(Maabaap Pelena bole... Card milte hi maabaap kush) his entire journey spiked aBout his luxury.. atleast this one point of how he cracked the attitude in English would have help thousands of students and teenagers across india...Well!!! Today's episode was disappointing and waste of time🙆😁No Offense... but i just wanna speak the truth.All the best.👍🙏

[@AmitSingh-vy2co]

Bro everyone of us who are youngsters know english, consume 99% of content in english, 50% of words while talking in hindi is itself english. Its just that barrier, that low confidence we have restricted to ourselves. Jab yeh mumbai aaya iske bohat saare friends, colleagues, mentors upper class ke honge jo har time english mein baat krte hain. Vo mental barrier hata lo man se aur normally english mein baat krne ki try karo.. naa ki kisi ko impress ya showoff krne ke liye. 1 mahine mein isse bhi badhiya bologe. Just remove this fear

[@chaikatta1568]

This man is so perfect.. M just looking this kind of a man
