On this episode of The Rich Equation Podcast, Ashish is joined by guest Guatam Patel. Ashish and Guatam speak about how vital it is for your business to have a healthy team that is working together. Guatam shares how he stays detached from the outcomes of his business decisions and he also expresses how we can learn more from our failures than our achievements. Guatam talks about how he thinks success is 50% luck and 50% timing so he encourages you to focus on the execution of your vision. Guatam shares the legacy he hopes to leave behind within the next few decades and informs us of his current personal project for the education industry. Ashish and Guatam also discuss how the education system is stuck in the same industrial style education of memorizing and everyone learning the exact same things instead of teaching our young people how to learn. Ashish and Guatam share how they hope with the use of improved technology and communications between countries, we can reach young people in education who could have the potential to change society if they just had more access.
