About Creating Wealth


Dr. Radhakrishnan Pillai Wisdom:

Five points to become Richie Rich:


  1. ·    Use your intelligence to optimum level. It is a gift given to human beings. Intelligence is not thinking out of the box but also questioning is there a box. Educations enhance intelligence.
  2.  Have a philosophy in life’ build your wealth in certain value system that you believe in.
  3.  Character; test of a man is his integrity, to stand there in spite of all the problems; you may have lots o f money, but character matters a lot.
  4.  Social dimension; nobody can create wealth in isolation.
  5.  Financial acumen to make money. There are four stages of wealth:1. Wealth identification; 2 Wealth creation; 3. Wealth management;  4. Wealth distribution ( it’s not how much wealth you give ; it’s whether you have an attitude of giving so that you do not become greedy.)
Richness is outside and inside also: both material and spiritual: Be like a Raja outside; and like a Rishi inside (detached to wealth)
He is the Rich Person

Steven K Covey words of wisdom:

  • Retire from your job but never from meaningful projects. If you want to live a long life you need eustress that is a deep sense of meaning and contribution to worthy projects and causes, particularly your intergenerational family.  

  • Trust is the glue that holds everything together. It creates the environment in which all of the other elements -- win-win steward ship agreements, self directing individuals and teams, aligned structure, systems and accountability – can flourish.

  • Give no answers to contentious arguments or irresponsible accusations, let such things “fly out, open windows” until they spend themselves.

  • The Key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.
