no words to express my feeling after watching this video. i am sitting miles away from though this is not a practice i follow often yet i say it "Charansparsh and Dhanywad ap ka". it is easy to find advice's and really hard to find the right one. Doctor wanted to put me on sleeping pills, i refused as i knew it i needed something else.. today i just found it what it was actually. Thank you very much sir. key word noted- "Live once Live Focused"

Edit- i am super impressed with power of expressions in the last segment of the video.

From the title, I thought you would be sharing late-night incidents from your hostels. Back in college, me and my friends used to have late-night chats on random topics around life and career; what we want, what we aspire to be, and so on. We still do have these chats but now they are over the phone and probably not as often as they used to be in college.

Even after wasting, you are successful sir..sometimes it is the time that teaches everyone...we know but we don't do..khud pe tokhar lgti h tbhi insaan seekhta hain.

[gautamkumar]

Listening to you on real topics and now a days on current concern is very much helpful. Got determination to move on from my late night job from yours videos, well said, all we need sharp and consistent focus for life target, enjoy life as well because you live once.No need to die for any bullshit company that is sucking your soul out of you.👌👌👍

My mom, who was a university gold medalist, also said the same thing, just study for a few hrs with deep concentration and no distractions, you don't have to wake up at 4 am or 5 am to study

[AreebIrshadHindi]

Sir, you have amazing communication and storytelling skills!

[mukeshupadhyay]

[bankingstudy]

Once again a golden piece of advice by you, thanks a lot sir👍

[notjustengineering]

How the igniting word you r telling.. It makes me slowly changing the perception of my life (leave comfort to be adventure)

[aniketrai]

sir can u elaborate more on what that laser focus is n how to devolp that...i can focus...but after 45min...it vanishes...n then whole day is not as productive as i want too

[nileshdeore]

Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.

[ranabirsarkar]

Sir, I don't think you have wasted your time otherwise you wouldn't have cracked the IIT JEE or UPSC civil services exam, both are one of the toughest exams in India.

[amanagnihotri]

Sir, what is he doing today in life who went to bed at 10pm? Must be doing something great. Sleeping habits matter so much

[aniliitk]
