There\u2019s a new billionaire industrialist in town, and his name is <strong>Naveen Jain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s no fictional poster boy of audacious innovation and trailblazing ideas like Tony. No, Naveen is someone much better\u2014he\u2019s the world\u2019s real-life counterpart.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And instead of donning an Iron Man suit, he suits up with disruptive business and groundbreaking initiatives. (And he suits up\u2014literally\u2014as the trainer for Mindvalley\u2019s <em>The Power of Boldness<\/em> Quest.)<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>A person who sees a problem is a human being; a person who finds a solution is a visionary; and the person who goes out and does something about it is an entrepreneur.<\/p>\n<p><cite>\u2014 Naveen Jain, trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s <em>The Power of Boldness<\/em> Quest<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So who is this revolutionary entrepreneur? And what can you learn from his bold perspective on business and the world?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the very thing Vishen, the founder of Mindvalley, gets into with Naveen on an <a href=\"https:\/\/podcast.mindvalley.com\/viomes-naveen-jain-on-raising-kids-with-values-and-building-life-changing-companies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">episode<\/a> of The Mindvalley Show.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Watch the whole episode on YouTube:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ep #018 | Viome\u2019s Naveen Jain on Raising Kids With Values and Building Life-Changing Companies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-is-naveen-jain\">Who Is Naveen Jain?<\/h2>\n<p>A moniker that echoes innovation, Naveen is a trailblazing entrepreneur celebrated for his audacity and inventive thinking. He\u2019s the driving force behind groundbreaking companies like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Moon Express<\/strong>, which ventures into the untapped territory of space exploration, and\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Viome<\/strong>, a revolution in healthcare that pivots from merely profiting off illness to actively promoting health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But beyond his tangible successes, what truly distinguishes Naveen is his philosophy. He often breaks from the mainstream, suggesting that while passion is commendable, it\u2019s an obsession\u2014specifically an obsession for solving problems\u2014that truly defines an entrepreneur\u2019s spirit. This relentless zeal to make a positive impact has been a hallmark of his journey.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-navin-jain-s-approach-to-raising-forward-thinking-children\">Navin Jain\u2019s approach to raising forward-thinking children<\/h3>\n<p>One cannot discuss Naveen without mentioning his unique approach to family and mentorship. Alongside his wife, Naveen has instilled in his children an ethos of innovation and problem-solving.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>One of the things I learned in life is passion\u2014we all, as parents, talk about finding the passion for our children<\/em>,\u201d he explains in his sit-down with Vishen. \u201c<em>Passion is for losers. Passion is for hobbies. The real winners have [an] obsession to solve problems<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The result? His children, following in his formidable footsteps, have launched their own pioneering ventures.<\/p>\n<p>Priyanka Jain is making strides in women\u2019s health with Evvy, which explores the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/vaginal-microbiome\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vaginal microbiome<\/a>, and Ankur Jain, reimagining housing affordability with Bilt. Both have imbibed their father\u2019s philosophy of harnessing hard skills to navigate the entrepreneurial landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Through his multifaceted ventures, Naveen hasn\u2019t just redefined industries; he\u2019s also created exceptional shareholder value. As he shares his invaluable insights on platforms like Mindvalley, it becomes evident that he champions the cause of expansive thinking.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-unconventional-wisdom-of-naveen-jain-nbsp\">The Unconventional Wisdom of Naveen Jain\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>For Naveen, the lifeline of existence is intellectual curiosity. It\u2019s what he calls the \u201cmoonshot\u201d\u2014essentially, what the world would look like if he (or any other entrepreneur, for that matter) were successful in his goals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>This is what the world is going to look like, and I describe that world<\/em>,\u201d he explains in what he tells his investors. \u201c<em>And then I say, \u2018this is what I\u2019m doing, and here are the steps for me to get there.\u2019<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He believes that <strong>if your dreams feel comfortably achievable, you\u2019re not dreaming big enough<\/strong>. Why aim for a 10% improvement when reimagining can lead to 10x results? This audacity, he suggests, begins with a tiny spark of curiosity.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t just intuition talking. Research, including an <a href=\"https:\/\/iaap-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/apps.12365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">extensive review<\/a> of 119 studies, has shown that immersing oneself in diverse interactions can supercharge creativity. Or, in Naveen\u2019s take, your next chat with the postman might just lead to a brilliant business idea.<\/p>\n<p>He constantly nudges us all to <strong>question the norm<\/strong>. And if you find yourself being the most knowledgeable in a gathering\u2014\u201d<em>If you\u2019re the smartest person in the room, you\u2019re in the wrong room!<\/em>\u201d\u2014his advice is to seek more challenging company.<\/p>\n<p>This approach isn\u2019t confined to business. At home, Naveen swaps out Cinderella for a creative challenge, prompting his kids to craft stories from random words. (He\u2019s definitely nurturing the next generation of entrepreneurs, brimming with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/unique-business-ideas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unique business ideas<\/a>!)<\/p>\n<p>In essence, Naveen\u2019s message is: <strong>Dream big, stay curious, and always be on the lookout for groundbreaking ideas<\/strong>.

Enter Naveen. He\u2019s not your ordinary puzzle solver; he\u2019s the guy inventing a whole new game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In collaboration with Mindvalley, he serves up a platter of unconventional wisdom for those hungry to lead differently. No cryptic clues here, just straightforward insights.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of Naveen\u2019s tips from his Mindvalley Quest:<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-ignite-passion-and-obsession-in-your-team\">1. Ignite passion and obsession in your team<\/h3>\n<p>The line between managing and leading is finer than most realize. While managers efficiently allocate resources and guide workflow, a true leader, much like how Stark instills fervor into his Iron Man projects, sets hearts aflame.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Passion isn\u2019t just about fervent zeal; it\u2019s a driving force. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/forbestechcouncil\/2018\/04\/17\/reversing-low-employee-engagement-in-manufacturing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Studies<\/a> indicate that when employees are passionately engaged, they can outperform their peers by an astonishing 202%.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For Naveen, it\u2019s not just about overseeing tasks but synchronizing every heartbeat to the mission\u2019s rhythm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain:<\/strong> \u201c<em>A great leader is someone who is able to ignite the passion, ignite that obsession, and everyone else who is working with them, and meet them at their best. That means your job as a leader is to get the best out of everyone by igniting their obsession about what they care about<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-transfer-loyalty-from-yourself-to-the-mission\">2. Transfer loyalty from yourself to the mission<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s common for early supporters to rally behind charismatic leaders. Their passion and vision often magnetize others.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, for long-term resilience, Naveen insists on a subtle transition: shift the loyalty from the individual to the mission.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2021\/09\/the-net-positive-manifesto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Harvard Business Review<\/a> points out, mission-driven companies consistently outpace their competition. It\u2019s about anchoring trust in a purpose that transcends any single person.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain: <\/strong>\u201c<em>A great entrepreneur transfers the loyalty from a person to actual loyalty to the mission. That means now it doesn\u2019t matter that you as a leader may or may not exist. That means someday you can leave the company and go on to do something different, but the people who joined you, continue on the mission<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-make-yourself-and-your-products-obsolete\">3. Make yourself and your products obsolete<\/h3>\n<p>It sounds counterintuitive, doesn\u2019t it? But Naveen stresses the idea of leadership as an evolving role.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A true leader knows when to step aside, making room for fresh perspectives. Additionally, in an age of rapid technological advancements, clinging to past achievements can be a company\u2019s downfall.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s crucial to anticipate and even pioneer disruptive changes. This forward-thinking approach ensures the enterprise remains at the forefront of its industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain: <\/strong>\u201c<em>The part of being a great leader is to make yourself completely obsolete. And what I mean by that is, you have to be able to hire people who can do the job that you are doing as good, if not even better than you\u2019re doing.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Every entrepreneur has a limit. And you have to be able to realize, in a certain phase of the company, when you actually have reached your limit and it\u2019s time to hire someone else to be able to take it over and essentially do a better job to continue down that mission<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-push-boundaries\">4. Push boundaries<\/h3>\n<p>Every leader, during their quest to innovate, will confront naysayers. Stark\u2019s journey wasn\u2019t devoid of adversaries, yet he persisted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a similar vein, Naveen considers the questions and challenges from skeptics as invaluable feedback. These aren\u2019t just <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/questions-for-entrepreneurs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">questions for entrepreneurs<\/a> to casually brush aside; they\u2019re opportunities to refine and perfect.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Opposition, rather than being a sign of failure, shines a spotlight on the trailblazing nature of a new concept. Embracing this feedback not only answers critics but strengthens the very foundation of the venture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain: <\/strong>\u201c<em>If you are on a mission to move the humanity forward, you have to constantly keep pushing the boundaries on the innovation. That means taking your product and essentially seeing what are the new ways of doing the same thing that you are doing<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-challenge-experts-and-experiment\">5. Challenge experts and experiment<\/h3>\n<p>Naveen\u2019s mantra? Question everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even experts can become trapped in established paradigms. By encouraging them to validate their assertions, a culture of experimentation emerges, fostering an environment ripe for innovation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2020\/03\/building-a-culture-of-experimentation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Harvard Business Review<\/a> echoes this sentiment. They suggest companies that embrace this experimental ethos significantly out-innovate their more conservative counterparts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain: <\/strong>\u201c<em>Your job is to hire these experts in their field. And your job is to challenge them to actually break their current thinking and have them experiment in the new ways.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>That means it\u2019s all about experimentation. So when people who are expert will tell you, \u2018This can\u2019t be done,\u2019 challenge them and then have them do an experiment<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-uphold-honesty-integrity-and-transparency\">6. Uphold honesty, integrity, and transparency<\/h3>\n<p>In an era of instant communication, transparency isn\u2019t just ethical; it\u2019s expected.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Taking a leaf out of Stark\u2019s open communication book, Naveen actively promotes candid conversations. His \u201cask me anything\u201d sessions underscore his commitment to open dialogue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As Deloitte\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/content\/dam\/Deloitte\/global\/Documents\/About-Deloitte\/gx-core-beliefs-and-culture.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">survey<\/a> findings show, both employees and executives view a culture rooted in honesty as a cornerstone of success.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insight from Naveen Jain:<\/strong> \u201c<em>There is not a question that you can ask me that I will not answer. And that means I\u2019m going to be very transparent with you. And the only thing we ask in that is, please don\u2019t ask me the question that you don\u2019t want to answer to<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-cultivate-a-culture-of-giving-back\">7. Cultivate a culture of giving back<\/h3>\n<p>The thing is, there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/causeintegration\/2015\/02\/19\/the-50-companies-that-crush-giving-back\/?sh=75bdb362502d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">studies<\/a> that show companies with strong community engagement initiatives have higher employee engagement scores.<\/p>\n<p>And for Naveen, that\u2019s what moonshot leadership is about\u2014not only achieving business milestones but also uplifting communities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And integrating gratitude and philanthropy within an organization\u2019s core ethos does more than just improve public relations. It deeply resonates with employees.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Insights from Naveen Jain: <\/strong>\u201c<em>It doesn\u2019t matter whether you do $1 or $1000,000, but creating a culture of giving back is so important because when we\u2019re no longer doing things that can benefit our community, our country, or humanity, then we really become self-centered people that no one wants to be part of<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bold-moves-brighter-futures\">Bold Moves, Brighter Futures<\/h2>\n<p>Thinking about the future can be a bit like tinkering in Tony Stark\u2019s lab\u2014full of wild gadgets and bright ideas. With Naveen Jain\u2019s insights lighting your path, the journey seems less about stumbling in the dark and more about following the light of your \u201cmoonshot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the best part?
