Raghuram Rajan-Governor of RBI.It would be face palm moment if somebody answers i don't know who is he.
I started having mixed feelings of crush,respect,proud etc on him.I started following a topic exclusively on him in Quora.
Just to motivate my inner self,am going to post few excerpts,anecdotes and some more.
Crush factors
1.His perpetual zeal to learn something new
During his initial days of joining RBI as Governor,apparently he used to reply in English for questions asked by journalists in Hindi.And he promised that he would learn hindi soon.
Unlike others who could have gone giving interviews in English,he asked one of his officer to teach him Hindi atleast one hour every week.Today he gives interviews at length in Hindi, except economic jargons
2.He is a true Sports person
One of his IIM Classmate told Mr.Rajan's dad funnily that "One day Rajan will make a Guinness record for the thinnest book in earth titled "Games that i have not played"
3.When asked about his thoughts on Entrepreneurship, he said," I give advice only if I get paid for it".
But he did go on and added, "Don't stop, challenge yourself till you are young. If you master a skill, be interesting and move one to a new challenge."
You don't get a lunch for free, do you?
So move out of your comfort zone and JUST DO IT!
