In the bustling realm of education, certain institutions have emerged as iconic hubs of intellectual rigor and unparalleled prestige. Among these, the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) shine brightly, revered as beacons of academic excellence and incubators of future leaders. These institutions, known for their rigorous curriculum and high-achieving students, have long been associated with the pursuit of technical and managerial mastery.
Yet, as our understanding of education and personal growth expands, it becomes increasingly apparent that knowledge transcends the boundaries of any particular domain. Education is not confined to textbooks and lecture halls alone but extends far beyond to encompass the multidimensional facets of human existence. This book, "What They Do Not Teach at IITs and IIMs," seeks to bridge the gap between conventional education and the profound wisdom offered by psychologists, neurologists, and the popular authors. It invites readers to explore the untrodden paths of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and personal development, crucial aspects that are often overlooked in traditional academic settings.
In a world driven by rapid technological advancements and the relentless pursuit of success, it is essential to pause and reflect on the true purpose of education. While technical skills and managerial acumen undoubtedly play a pivotal role, they are only a fraction of the expansive mosaic that shapes a well-rounded individual. By delving into the realms of psychology, neuroscience, and timeless philosophical wisdom, we embark on a transformative journey that can enhance our understanding of ourselves and others, enriching our lives in unimaginable ways.
Seed is an extremely important metaphor!
We are all seeds! We all carry inside us a lot of seeds! Seed is a symbol of potential, life, and growth.
A beautiful blossom already exists within a flower seed, even before it is planted. With the right mixture of soil, sunlight, and rain, the flower’s colour, scent, and form naturally emerge in their fullest expression. It is also true that flowers and trees grow toward the light. They seek it out,
Seed is an extremely important metaphor!
We are all seeds! We all carry inside us a lot of seeds! Seed is a symbol of potential, life, and growth.
A beautiful blossom already exists within a flower seed, even before it is planted. With the right mixture of soil, sunlight, and rain, the flower’s colour, scent, and form naturally emerge in their fullest expression. It is also true that flowers and trees grow toward the light. They seek it out, stretching out of the shadows in order to reach it—sideways if necessary. They seem to figure out on their own where the sun falls. Once they do, they show an unflappable determination to get there. Similarly, as human beings, we have a natural inclination to grow toward what we desire, striving for the things that give us meaning and joy—the sunlight of life, such as friendships, romantic relationships, fulfilling jobs, and a comfortable home.
The book is a compilation of exercises or tools, validated by positive psychology researchers across the world to enhance our wellbeing. Like the law of gravitation and other universal principles, they have been discovered and sharpened by many researchers and experts.
All of us want to be happy. Whether our dreams are about professional success, spiritual fulfilment, a sense of connection, a purpose in life, or love , we cover those things since we believe that they will make us happier. We think, if I just get that raise, or hit that next sales target, I shall be happy. If I can just get that next good grade, I will be happy. If I lose those five pounds, I will be happy and so on.

All of us want to be happy. Whether our dreams are about professional success, spiritual fulfilment, a sense of connection, a purpose in life, or love , we cover those things since we believe that they will make us happier. We think, if I just get that raise, or hit that next sales target, I shall be happy. If I can just get that next good grade, I will be happy. If I lose those five pounds, I will be happy and so on. Success comes first, then happiness. The only problem is that this formula is broken. This success-central hypothesis has created a wrong perception of our personal and professional universe. Ground-breaking research in the fields of positive psychology and neuroscience has proven in no uncertain terms that the relationship between success and happiness works the other way around. Thanks to this cutting-edge science, we now know that happiness is the precursor to success, not merely the result.
Remaking yourself a happier person and living a flourishing and meaningful life is entirely in your hands, if you are willing to bring to bear some effort and commitment, are ready, and only if you understand how to proceed. A Happier You can be taken as the Art of happiness based on the Science of Happiness!
