‘Best goals in life are … ‘ Anand Mahindra shares insightful life mantra on ‘poison’

Business tycoon Anand Mahindra is known for his wisdom and insights. The 67-year-old, who is pretty active on Twitter where he enjoys a massive following of over 9.6 million people, often shares his two-bits on life, business and ambition on the micro-blogging platform.

On Wednesday, Mahindra shared yet another insightful quote on contentment that comes in life from balance. The

chairperson took to Twitter to share an inspiring quote that popped up on his Signal wonder box today.

The quote on the picture read:

“A sharman was asked: What is poison?

– Anything beyond what we need is poison. It can be power, laziness, food, ego, ambition, vanity, fear, anger or whatever.”

Alongside the quote, Mahindra also shared his own thoughts on best life goals.

“The best goals in life are not about getting more … they’re about doing more with less …” he wrote on Twitter.

One of Mahindra’s followers on the micro-blogging platform, replied to the billionaire’s tweet with a sanskrit saying: “Ati sarvatra varjayet”, which means excess of anything is bad.

Impressed by the quote, the Mumbai-based business conglomerate retweeted the post.

Meanwhile on Sunday, the 67-year-old had shared a screengrab of a report quoting the late business magnate Rakesh Jhunjhunwala. “It’s advice that is worth billions and the best part is, it requires investing your time and not your money,” Mahindra had tweeted.

In an old interview, Jhunjhunwala who passed away earlier this month at the age of 62, shared his “worst investment”.

“My worst investment has been my health. I would encourage everybody to invest the most in that,” Jhunjhunwala had said in an old interview with
Economic Times.
