Heard the term – Master of all trades?
I am sure you’ve not!

It seems far fetched.

I met Mr Vivek Atray recently, who’s based out of Panchkula.

We are the alumni of the same engineering college (NIT Kurukshetra) and I share another trait with him in terms of being a public speaker.

He took voluntary retirement as an IAS officer a couple of years back.

He now devotes his time to many different pursuits, ranging from academics (runs an IAS coaching academy) to sports (organises an annual cricket tournament) to spirituality and finally a sought after speaker (addresses thousands of people every year).

He is also an author of a couple of books and is an acclaimed speaker, addressing thousands of people every year

I have seen him perform all his duties with utmost zeal, focus and tons of energy!

I reached his home and was welcomed with a soft smile.

We discussed about training, college updates (NITK), his new book “The Middle of Everything” and my new real estate venture!

As the clock turned 5, it was time for him to oversee some work at Yoganand society.

Two senior monks were in town and he had to coordinate a few things for their session scheduled for the weekend.

I was simply in awe as I took his leave.

Well, most of us feel overwhelmed by multiple tasks/ activities.

Here I was with a person who has so much to do and is able to find time for everything in life..

There’s so much to learn from this gentleman!
