Everyone is working hard… so why doesn’t hard work always lead to fulfillment?

Watching my kids play sports taught me something powerful. Speed matters — but accuracy and placement are what actually change the game. And life works the same way. Moving fast without direction just creates noise. Effort without intention doesn’t equal progress. So maybe the question isn’t how fast you’re moving — but whether you’re placing your energy where it actually matters!

Some people make an impact loudly. Others do it quietly, consistently, and for decades. Today, I’m speaking with someone I’ve known since kindergarten—someone whose quiet conviction has transformed more than 500 young lives across India.

For over twenty years, Binu Verghese has devoted his evenings, weekends, and heart to supporting underprivileged children through education, opportunity, and dignity. No spotlight. No agenda. Just service.

In our conversation, we explore the moment that set him on this path, what kept him going, the children who reshaped his worldview, and the message he hopes the next generation carries forward.

If you’ve ever wondered how one person can create lasting change—this is the story you need to hear.

Have you noticed how often smart people start great ideas with an apology? “I’m not an expert, but…” “Maybe I’m totally wrong…” “Sorry if this is obvious…”

We don’t lose confidence because others doubt us — we lose it because we’ve learned to doubt ourselves out loud.

These tiny phrases feel harmless, yet they shrink our voice before we’ve even spoken. In my new episode of Unscripted Growth, I explore how small language shifts can change how our ideas land — without losing humility.
