My amazing friend Tushar Niras used curiosity to fuel his rise from the slums of Mumbai to jobs in Google and Amazon!
In this episode, Tushar and I discuss the meaning of his name and tattoo, what life was like in his childhood village, and how life changed when his family moved to the slums of Mumbai.
We talk about his culture shock in moving from a village of 1,000 people to one of the biggest cities in the world, how he didn't know what a resume was and had never seen a computer, and how he started as a construction worker living off a dollar a day.
However, Tushar shares that through the power of curiosity--and meeting others who helped him--he learned about computers, figured out how to interview, and landed his dream job.
Tushar shares life hacks and inspires us all to be proud of where we come from, no matter how humble...and that curiosity is a key factor in success!
