Most of us don’t achieve early success. Or we wonder about building a second life even as the years slip by. Is it doable? Yes. Welcome to episode 7 of Watching the Wheels, hosted by Amit Varma, Shruti Rajagopalan and Pranay Kotasthane. In this episode, Amit shares his thoughts about late blooming: why he relates to it so much, the late bloomers he admires, & the ways in which growing older is a feature & not a bug. All three hosts share a path of becoming a late learner & bloomer. Also, our finest edition of The Infinite Game sees a worthy winner!
