What is ‘Think with Me’ all about?

Subrata Roy Sahara is someone who does not need any formal introduction. The world has witnessed the way he has made the entire Sahara empire from scratch. There’s a reason why he’s such a successful man and the reason behind that is the way the man thinks and lives his life.

If you have read his earlier book ‘Life Mantra’, you would know that Saharasri is a highly positive man. His outlook on life and its ups & downs is very different from a regular person. That’s the difference between him and a man still struggling to earn a living.

In ‘Think with Me’, Saharasri talks about the problems India is facing in becoming an ideal country. These problems are mostly to do with areas such as the political leadership, overpopulation, education system, the religion and media degrading etc.

What I loved about the book is that Mr Roy has shared his in-depth view over each problem and tried to make his readers understand what exactly is happening in our country and how we can possibly fix it and make India a very good country, an ideal one so living here becomes easier. If you’re a concerned citizen and often find yourself wondering what could make India a better place to live in, then ‘Think with Me’ by Subrata Roy Sahara is a book that will interest you a lot.

You will not only get to understand the problem in detail but will also understand how running a country is not an easy job and how important it is for us to fix problems such as overpopulation and illiteracy. Because only when we will have a country with more literate people, who can think rationally and reasonably, we will have a smarter and more successful nation. 

I highly recommend ‘Think with Me’ to all the Indians, as it is the citizens who can come together and help India be a better nation!

My take on Think with Me

Subrata Roy Sahara knows how difficult it is to reach where he is, success is always hard earned and being successful in a country like India is even more difficult. Now, you must be wondering what a vague statement is that, but let’s get deeper into it. Starting with the overpopulation, getting into a good school, a better college is so difficult, there are times when even 99% marks are not enough for getting into a college where you’ve always dreamed of studying.

Citing the same problem of population, businessmen face a strong competition and mind you this competition is cut-throat. And it is so, only because there are lots of people doing the same business. Earning money in our country is hard. How does one rectify this and make living in India a fairly easy? We are constantly working hard and failing to be happy with our lives, what will make this better?

When we look at the professionals in the western countries, we see how well organized their lives are, how comfortably they reach work and come home at the same time daily and spend time with their families. Unlike us, we struggle to reach our offices, courtesy packed public transport, traffic or bad roads. Most of us don’t ever leave office in time as all of us are over-worked and burdened, doing work worth two employees. The list goes on and on.

Saharasri, in ‘Think with Me’, discusses population, education and all the other factors he thinks, if fixed, will lead India in becoming a better and ideal country! It’s a book, I highly recommend to all the people who keep wondering where is our country going wrong and is not progressing as fast as it should. Also, to all those people who consider themselves as concerned citizens.

‘Think with Me’ has given me a better understanding of our Country and I will do my best to contribute to its betterment!

Why I want to read Saharasri’s ‘Think with Me’

After reading ‘Life Mantras’ by Mr Subrata Roy Sahara, I am a changed person. With all the situation that he has been into and he has still maintained such a positive attitude towards life, I am truly impressed and inspired by Mr Roy! This is my reason one for wanting to read ‘Think with Me’.

Besides this, I consider myself as a concerned citizen of India, and I work hard and pay taxes, yet I see the country only going down the drain and not progressing at all. If at all, there is any progress, it is slow as a snail or as invisible as the wind. I totally fail to understand what is going on, I am reading about other countries becoming a powerful nation and don’t get me wrong, I read about India progressing too, launching new satellites and making powerful nuclear ammunitions BUT what about the common man like me? Our life is only becoming tougher and tougher, the roads aren’t smooth, the public transport is always over-crowded and getting in good education institute is almost getting next to impossible.

So, after ‘Life Mantras’, I have been looking forward to its sequel that is named as ‘Think with Me’. Saharasri is an extremely intelligent man, and this very intelligence and his reasoning skills have made him the man that he is and build an empire this big. I wanted to know how he thinks we can make India a better country and I literally want to ‘Think with him’. He has discussed the fundamentals of making India an ideal country, along with issues such population, education system, media and religion, electoral system & leadership.

I am sure, Mr Roy would’ve discussed these in minute details and the book will give me a fresh perspective on why India isn’t getting better for the common public and how to make it better.

Saharasri and Think with Me

Nearly everybody at some point in their lives have pondered or considered about the “secret” of being successful. While there are many individuals who will give you guidance on this topic but these people have very little success to give them the right to talk about ‘secret’ to success. Although, Subrata Roy is an exceptionally successful man.

He is a man that has effectively begun his own organization with almost no capital and slowly transformed it into one of the greatest organizations of the world. To be exact, he started with INR2000 (about US$32) and 3 workers in 1978, and as on today, Sahara’s worth is INR1,73,000 crores (about US$26 billions). All this was accomplished within a span of just thirty- eight years!

"Sahara" is an organization that was one of the first Indian organizations to have an unmistakable worldwide recognition. It had interests in different divisions and was a flourishing and prospering business that has given employment to a huge amount of people in India. 

Subrata Roy has recently launched ‘Think with Me’ a sequel to 'Life Mantras' which was released in February last year i.e. February 2016. 'Think with Me’ is a book that talks about the fundamentals of making India an ideal country. Issues revolving around Electoral system & leadership, population, education system, media and religion discussed in this book.

Saharasri has shared his thought provoking beliefs which will literally make you think with HIM, understand his thoughts behind how what he thinks can make India an ideal country. The book will act an eye-opening for many citizens and every patriotic, concerned citizen will have similar opinions and thoughts as Subrata Roy Sahara.

So, if you need some food for thought about how to make India a better nation, pick ‘Think with me’ by Subrata Roy Sahara a.k.a ‘Saharasri’.
