Smart people listen, when other smart people speak
In my life, I am privileged enough to have a company of friends and mentors who are innately smart. They don’t need to work hard to be intelligent. Everything that these individuals say or do adds tremendous value to me, even if that is not their area of expertise. This has the effect of really enriching my life and increasing the rate at which I develop.
I should probably talk about all these people I know who fall into this category, but today’s post is about Dr. Manas Fuloria. Manas is a very dear friend and mentor to me. I have learned quite a bit from him in the duration that I have known him. Recently, he started a venture which educates young minds from all over India – he co-founded a business school.
While I knew that he was also taking some classes at this business school from time to time, I didn’t know that he had started blogging. He had started blogging about a variety of topics for the benefit of his students so that he can reach out to them even when not in the classroom. This blog allows him to discuss a variety of facets of life, without the structure of a classroom.
When I finally got to know about this blog (last week) I went and had a read. And what I read told me that its not just his MBA students who can benefit from what he writes. His articles are applicable to everyone. Even though the articles are written to address a very specific target audience, the concepts are universal.
So, I now go and read this blog regularly. Because, when smart people speak, one should listen.
Manas presents often visited topics with a very fresh viewpoint – his view point. And that itself opens up your mind quite a bit since you probably didn’t thing of those things before.
I highly recommend that you should go and read this blog once, and if you like it, then you can keep going back: http://drmanasblog.proton.in/. And of course, if you like it, you can recommend it to your friends, and then they can recommend it to their friends ad infinitum.
