Summary

What makes some young Indians more successful than others? Is the secret to their success a gifted mind or an affluent background? The answer is-neither. With in-depth interviews and analysis of what makes champions tick, Manthan Shah identifies the attributes that make them who they are-grit, courage, determination, creativity and empathy. In short, they are unstoppable! This book chronicles the journeys of the best and the brightest Indians in business, sports, music, academia and entertainment. The stories are assisted by research from renowned experts in the fields of neuroscience, psychology, genealogy, social sciences and leadership. Unstoppable not only provides inspiration to create something extraordinary from ordinary circumstances and resources, but also highlights important factors and provides a 'plan of action' for achieving one's goals.
