A mother is our first friend and foremost guru. And yet, we underestimate her lessons on life, love, hospitality, relationships, time and resource management, dismissing them as old fashioned, simplistic and naive. One son who’s finally understood the inherent solidity of mom-made life lessons is food entrepreneur Gaurav Gite, founder of Marrakesh, the Lebanese/Indian chain of restaurants. Starting with his mother’s life savings and her belief in him, Gaurav’s is a success story, whose journey would have been smoother if he had listened to Mumma!

 

A tribute, love letter and long overdue apology to the wonder woman that is Mumma – Gaurav’s and everyone else’s too.

Attitudes are an inherent part of our mental make-up: some good, some not so good. We have opinions about what concerns us and about practically all else too. These thoughts, opinions and attitudes form our mindset. A challenging aspect of a mindset, at least for most of us, is that it is not easy to change it. Unknowingly and invariably, our mindset takes control and impacts our life and destiny appreciably. All of us need to be aware of this plain but significant truth about life.
