Mahima Mehra did it.
Ranjiv Ramchandani did it.
Kalyan Varma did it.

'CONNECT THE DOTS' is a sequel to 'Stay Hungry Stay Foolish' and is the story of 20 enterprising individuals without an MBA, who started their own ventures. They were driven by the desire to prove themselves. To lead interesting, passionate, meaningful lives.
Some of the entrepreneurs featured in the book are:
  • Kunwer Sachdev, Founder, Su-kam
  • R. Sriram, Founder, Crossword Bookstore
  • Ganesh Ram, Founder, Veta (Vivekananda English Training Academy)
  • Satyajit Singh, Founder, Shakti Sudha Industries
Their stories say one thing loud and clear. You don't need a fancy degree or a rich daddy to dream big and make it happen. It's all in your head, your heart, your hands.

Book Summary of Life Is What You Make It

What would you do if destiny twisted the road you took? What if it threw you to a place you did not want to go? Would you fight, would you run or would you accept? Set across two cities in India in the early eighties, 'Life is what you make it' is a gripping account of a few significant years of Ankita's life.

Ankita Sharma has the world at her feet. She is young, good-looking, smart and has tonnes of friends and boys swooning over her. College life is what every youngster dreams of and she also manages to get into a premier management school for her MBA. Six months later, she is a patient in a mental health hospital. How did Ankita get here? What were the events that led to this? Will she ever get back her life again?

Life has cruelly and coldly snatched that which meant the most to her and she must now fight to get it all back.

It is a deeply moving and inspiring account of growing up, of the power of faith and how determination and an indomitable spirit can overcome even what destiny throws at you.

A tale, at its core a love-story that makes us question our beliefs about ourselves and our concept of sanity and forces us to believe that life is truly what one makes it.
