Summary

‘First, sit in a quiet place。 Now, close your eyes and visualize your ideal life ten years from now。 Don’t worry, this isn’t a wishful exercise to manifest your dreams。 Instead, we’re taking the first practical step to articulate your deepest, most personal goals。 The hard work required to achieve your goals will come next。’

In 2019, Karan Bajaj quit his job as Discovery India’s head to start WhiteHat Jr with the mission of making every kid a creator in this world。 At the time, everyone thought Karan was reckless to give up a high-flying corporate career at the age of forty, but eighteen months later, WhiteHat Jr was acquired by BYJU’s for $300 million。 On the surface, it was one of the fastest startup-to-exit journeys in India, but the seeds of this were planted a decade ago when Karan first decided to create his own set of life rules。

In The Freedom Manifesto, Karan, for the first time, reveals these secrets to help you transform your life。 Unconventional, practical and no-nonsense, these seven rules will help you prioritize what matters most, radically transform your mindset from an employee to an owner, create a daily routine to end self-doubt and negativity and break the shackles of conformity to design a life of your calling。 These rules will set you free, not just financially, but also help to reveal your best self。

Karan is the elder brother you never had。 This is the only book you need to read in your twenties and then again in your thirties, preferably with a pen and notebook in hand。A good story is relatable, I felt like Karan was telling my story。 His failures and successes feel your own and you are rooting for him and yourself throughout the book。 When was the last time you did that while reading a self help book?Take my advice, grab a coffee and get comfortable。 Pick up a pen, you are gonna need it。 Karan is the elder brother you never had。 This is the only book you need to read in your twenties and then again in your thirties, preferably with a pen and notebook in hand。A good story is relatable, I felt like Karan was telling my story。 His failures and successes feel your own and you are rooting for him and yourself throughout the book。 When was the last time you did that while reading a self help book?Take my advice, grab a coffee and get comfortable。 Pick up a pen, you are gonna need it。 Write notes as you go along。 Read and Re-read。 Slowly。 Absorb it。 Such gems are rare to come by。 。。。more

Mr Karan Bajaj's blog is my go-to solution whenever I am stuck in my life as he articulates very well in his blog about everything - life, travel, business。 When I came to know he was writing a book I was amazed。 After reading the book I could understand life has more than what we think and dream, it is one of the best self-help books I have ever read。 It is not only gripping but also makes you think about your reason to live。 If someone wants to grow in life I guess they have to pick this。 Mr Karan Bajaj's blog is my go-to solution whenever I am stuck in my life as he articulates very well in his blog about everything - life, travel, business。 When I came to know he was writing a book I was amazed。 After reading the book I could understand life has more than what we think and dream, it is one of the best self-help books I have ever read。 It is not only gripping but also makes you think about your reason to live。 If someone wants to grow in life I guess they have to pick this。 。。。more

A great read which is not preachy but a step by step guide filled with practical tips to live a life of your calling and follow your DHARMA 。 Some amazing advise to plan and go about life and decisions related to it。 The frameworks shared for freedom and entrepreneurship are super useful and enlightening。 You will be a different person after reading this book 。 A must read…。

Krishnakant Kalika

This is one of those books that genuinely helps & makes sense。 The best part of this book is that it is not inclined toward one topic, but rather amalgamation of all the things that a person requires or encounters during their journey。 Be it mental health, time management, money management or leadership, this book got you covered。 Highly recommended!

I despise most self help books。 I find them glib, superficial and boring。 The introduction to this book was no different。 The "close your eyes and visualize your life in 10 years" thing has been done and done too much, so I thought "oh no, the visualize and manifest your dream" business again。 The intro continues to wander around a bit before settling down into the contents of the book, which I think should have been just a table of contents。 However, I encourage you to keep going, or just skip I despise most self help books。 I find them glib, superficial and boring。 The introduction to this book was no different。 The "close your eyes and visualize your life in 10 years" thing has been done and done too much, so I thought "oh no, the visualize and manifest your dream" business again。 The intro continues to wander around a bit before settling down into the contents of the book, which I think should have been just a table of contents。 However, I encourage you to keep going, or just skip the whole intro if you want。 The rest of the book is a pleasant surprise。 Most compelling is the author's unsentimental, unvarnished, yet very optimistic account of his experiences in a variety of endeavors, some successful, some not。 The breadth of the book covers his cognitive, physical, emotional and spiritual experience, as well as the nitty gritty details of the decisions made and the very interesting financial equations he landed on。 His message about hard work, discipline, learning from failures and mistakes, incorporating all experience internally into his process, and to keep reading, keep learning and keep going! I loved the how-to details, the depth and breadth of this narrative。 。。。more

Overall the Book is excellent。 The Author does an exceptional job of revealing how average and ordinary life was, the uncommon decisions he took, the extraordinary logic behind them, the fruits they bore, and how anyone can achieve it。 Must read for 20-year-olds。

Karan has been intermittently sharing his practical learning in his YouTube videos。 I wondered whether he will write a book putting his insights in a sequential order and here comes the book。 The Freedom Manifesto very precisely provides the answers to pertinent questions that one is generally straggling to get。 The answers, at first, may not be adequately appreciated by first time readers of Karan or personal development however the answers are practical and to the point that one may appreciate Karan has been intermittently sharing his practical learning in his YouTube videos。 I wondered whether he will write a book putting his insights in a sequential order and here comes the book。 The Freedom Manifesto very precisely provides the answers to pertinent questions that one is generally straggling to get。 The answers, at first, may not be adequately appreciated by first time readers of Karan or personal development however the answers are practical and to the point that one may appreciate over time。 。。。more

Very unique and original book。 Highly recommended。 Though the theme focused on startup, must read for anyone who wants to quit his job and do something they want but are confused on how to plan and start。 It approaches the mindset and preparation from a very logical prespective。 I loved the fact that the author has advocated and explained how Yoga can help in achieving our goals。 The second half on details about startups is awesome。 Loved it。

If yes, this is the book for you。 Karan's story is almost too relatable。 The odds are always against us。 But how do you turn things around and become the person you're destined to be?The Freedom Manifesto inspires a sense of commitment to ourselves。 Like the promise Karan made to himself when he decided he would create something that creates a huge Net Impact (Depth X Magnitude) on the world。Rarely are we able to find such an honest account of an individual’s success journey。 Not only does the book dive deep into entrepreneurial life but also helps understand the "why" behind the actions and decisions。 I've never read something so authentic that knocks so much sense into you。I've read tons of books, but every once in a while, you come across a book that becomes a playbook you keep referring to again and again。 There is a rationale behind every idea - so you're aware of why is an exercise a good idea to implement in your life。When you read a first-hand account of an entrepreneur, you feel a sense of companionship without ever meeting them in person。CritiqueThis book is like a placebo for all the people looking to break free and achieve freedom in their lives。 But for any placebo to work, the patient needs to have belief in the systems and practices that have been mentioned。 For someone like me this would do wonders and can bring about life-changing benefits, but for someone else, it might just be another book。Also, the journeys, background, upbringing, and context varies from person to person, so creating generic rules/ framework might not be relatable for all audiences。RecommendationEveryone should read this book。 If you want to uncover your duty to the world, and how to perform it at your highest potential - Karan's book is the blueprint you need。If you don't have a mentor, but want one, this book does the job。 I can vouch for this because I have personally implemented some of the rules mentioned and the impact is visible 。。。more

Right off the bat, the author gives you an exercise, a straightforward one: visualise your ideal life。 Don’t we all do that all the time?

Such dreams help set life goals, but as with all things worthy, we need to work hard to achieve them。 That is where this book fits: guiding the readers along the path and hopefully enabling them to meet these goals。This first-person narrative book is an account of Karan's personal, or should I say, adventurous life。 In the past, he has juggled between being an author, an entrepreneur, and a corporate executive, all the while dealing with unmet expectations。 As we all know, in the end, he finds his calling and achieves tremendous success。This is not a lengthy or complex one。 The language is simple, and the message is clear。 One can easily finish reading it within a couple of days, though applying the lessons in one's own life will take time and sincere effort。The book is ideal for those who grind their days away at a corporate job without joy and hope to someday find meaning in life。 The solutions Karan provides are to find what you love and have the financial freedom to take the plunge into it。 In Karan’s case, that love is creating something with impact and depth (a meaningful book or starting a venture impacting millions of lives)。 These rules, exercises, and "startup kits" can be applied to anything that matters。A couple of points that were missed and would have made the book far richer are:1。 The author should have dwelt more on the process of preparing oneself to risk it all。 Fear looms large in everyday life。 Building inner strength and an emotional support system are crucial。2。 Since the book is divided into chapters defining specific rules, I feel the narrative continuity was compromised。 Not a big deal when the content is so helpful, but it could have been better。The book is written with honesty。 Karan does not shy away from revealing the mistakes he has made and his struggles to overcome personal, financial, and spiritual dilemmas。If you too are willing to break free of the existential crisis many of us face daily, read this book, take notes, and start the journey。 You will find Karan’s advice helpful and hopefully life-changing。PS: I received an advance copy of the book for an honest review。 。。。more

This book is a result of over 20 years of discipline, consistency, learning, adventure, and growth。 From the time you thought about leaving your first job at P&G to actually leaving it to pursue the life of your calling, the journey has demanded his blood and sweat。 The arduous hours spent on reading, pursuing nature, and writing books, have all paid off and the final output of these many years of sheer dedication has been nothing but rewarding, so one can say。

This is a practical guide to start your own business following the author’s steps and success。If you’re thinking of changing your life with a start up business, this book will guide you to it through practical teaching and stories of personal experience。I wish this book came in my life 20 years ago。 Too late for me now to start anything new, but it was an interesting read and added knowledge for my next life :-)
