Having fun….
March 19th, 2013
Dearest Darling Friends,
In a meeting with 400 classy businessmen, I was asked,
“How long should we chase success?”
I smiled and answered….”As long as you are having
fun doing so.” While there were many guf f aws at my
answer, the question kept on lingering f or a longer time
in my head.
I looked around at the dining table af ter the meeting
and f ound many people who were highly successf ul but
not necessarily having deep sleep and peacef ul nights.
It was certain they were enjoying some f ruits of
success, it was also clear, they were not enjoying the
process.
While we live most of our lif e chasing whatever each
one of us decide as success, is there something else
that we need and do not see clearly? I wondered if there is a missing piece to lif e.
T his is what my wandering mind led me to. T he train of our life runs on two rails. One of them
certainly is success f or success makes us f eel alive. Success makes us f eel worthy. Success makes us
f eel a high. Success helps us to get many things we want. Success makes me look ahead to lif e.
T here are a f ew things that success cannot give us. One of them is the reason f or our discussion here.
While success cannot give us love, health, true f riends, and a f ew more important things, there is
another very important thing that success cannot give us. T hat something is the second rail of our
life. T hat is ‘fulfillment’. T hat something is most crucial to live a complete lif e.
A combination of success and fulfillment is the best way to live life.
If you have both, congrats! You are a rare breed. You as an ‘example’, is what the world needs. Make
yourself ‘visible’. And yes, live enthusiastically. Nothing else will make you more visible than enthusiasm.
In case you have one of the two rails, get the missing one. In case you don’t have both, start now with
f ocus and determination.
“How to know if I am having both success and f ulf illment?”
You make people get up and do something worthwhile with their lif e.
You make people believe they can do something wonderf ul.
You make people believe they are wonderf ul.
You make people believe it’s their duty to do something f or a greater cause.
Even in your absence, people f eel your gracious presence.

2. If the above six statements is about you, then you are leaving a legacy that empowers people not only in
the present but f or times to come. And yes, it also means you are truly successf ul and live a f ulf illed lif e.
Congrats!!!
While f ulf illment is your reward f or living a good lif e, your success will be the world’s reward f or having
you.
With loads of love, prayers and best wishes,
Narendra Goidani.
