HFM is always earnestly seeking inspirational stories and came across one such amazing story of Gautam Jain. Gautam Jain is an accomplished bestselling author, Inspirational speaker, and seasoned life and business mentor, boasting over 18 years of rich experience. With an unwavering dedication to personal and professional growth, he has impacted the lives of over 300,000 individuals through more than 2100 live transformational seminars across India and conferences in various Asian countries. In recognition of his outstanding contributions, Gautam was honored with the prestigious Shining Star of India award in 2020, held in New Delhi.
Throughout his illustrious career, Gautam has been the recipient of numerous accolades and certifications, showcasing his commitment to excellence. His peak performance in the industry caught HFM’s attention. Gautam’s passion lies in empowering individuals to unlock their inner potential.
In addition to his speaking engagements and mentoring endeavors, Gautam is also a bestselling author, having penned the insightful book “10 Leadership Habits” – a comprehensive guide unveiling the core habits of exceptional leaders.
The start it was 2006 when his journey started. He identified an opportunity back then in Direct Selling, but due to his family’s financial condition and lack of funds, he was unable to start his own business.
“I thought a lot about it and found my broken gold chain, what next? I sold it and got some cash and boom! I gathered funds for my new business. I still remember those days, all the hardships I faced during the initial phase of my business.”
For around 8 months, he used to have meals mostly once a day. Sometimes he even had to make do with just the biscuits. His business revolved around Skill development and educational products. He faced 108 rejections in a single month before his luck bloomed and he got one successful conversion.
“And at that time, I realized this is what I would do for the rest of my life.”
In his own words, Gautam reflects on his journey: “I have invested 18 years of life, precious time, money, and energy to learn all this from groundwork experience. When I started 18 years ago, nobody was there to teach me all these things in a concrete way. I just want to save your resources so that you don’t need to waste such a long time of yours to learn, transform, and grow in your life. My Mission is to see one Mental health coach in every Indian household, supporting and guiding families towards well-being.”
In his journey of being a direct seller, he has successfully crossed a turnover of more than 200 crores. That’s a feather in his hat!

Pro Tip on Starting a Business or a Career
Career or Business is the work we are going to do in our life, and hence it takes a major chunk of our 24-hour day.
“I want this major chunk to be joyful.”
Why, he wonders, anyone on this planet would do something that is not enjoyable for the longest part of the day? Therefore, this should be the approach for selecting or categorizing our career/ business.
“I wanted to be involved in work which would give me the pleasure of exploring this world, give me a sense of freedom. Similarly, every person should first understand their voice i.e., in which way they want to work. This choice is considered very passionate because it brings out the immense potential of every individual. Everyone should learn how to listen to their inner voice so that they can figure out things for themselves.”
Now for the technicalities work depends on where the mass is. Understand this need and cater to the demand by either making yourself the best product and learning skills to set a career in MNCs or bringing some unique product that fulfills this demand. There are tons of opportunities around us; we need to understand how to cater to the needs of society.
Tips before passing the baton: GenZ
“I feel this generation has the world in their pockets. Yes, I am talking about their smart devices. It opens a completely new world for them, it brings so much transparency about the world. Somewhere I have observed this generation lacks understanding of the real meaning of freedom.”
A lot of things in this world influence the thoughts, behavior, and actions of GenZ. They have to first channel their energy into self-exploration before thinking about exploring the world. It will give them perspective to look at how things work, because everything they have seen around them works quickly and is result-oriented so they, in return become impatient and impulsive about things.
“This generation thinks life is all about winning; even their parents have decided the way they want their child’s life to be. It brings pampering to parenting, and thus they don’t want their kids to learn what failure feels like. So, I firmly believe that this generation needs to learn how to accept failure, work to improve their persona, and have the will to fight back.”
