Understanding Humanity, Understanding Life: A Path to Unwavering Confidence
As a child, Muralidharan would sit on buses, quietly watching the people around him. He observed their expressions, the way they spoke, and how they reacted to everyday situations acts of kindness, moments of frustration, fleeting glances filled with unspoken words. "The best teacher is life itself," he often said. "And if you pay attention, you will learn something new every day."
He didn’t rely only on books for knowledge. He studied how professionals carried themselves in offices, how wealthy people dined in restaurants, and how leaders spoke in public. "When you observe people, you don’t just see them you understand them," he said. "And when you understand people, you understand life."
Muralidharan never hesitated to ask questions. "If you don’t ask, you don’t learn," he believed. Whether it was a schoolteacher, a shopkeeper, or a stranger on the bus, he listened and absorbed wisdom from all walks of life. "Everyone has something to teach you. You just have to be open to learning."
These lessons shaped him into the man he became curious, confident, and deeply connected to people. "I didn’t just learn how to succeed," he reflected. "I learned how to live." This curiosity and hunger for knowledge would later help him overcome professional struggles and rise in his career against all odds.

The Power of Persistence: Turning Challenges into Stepping Stones
Muralidharan had big dreams. He wanted to become a Chartered Accountant, but financial struggles forced him to abandon that goal. Yet, he did not let disappointment break him. Instead, he took a clerical job in the morning and studied at an evening college, determined to find his own way to success. Working long hours and balancing studies was tough, but he refused to give up. "Every late night, every early morning I told myself it would be worth it," he said. "I didn’t have an option to fail."
His hard work eventually paid off, and he secured an opportunity to work in the Gulf. He arrived with hopes of a fresh start, only to find himself facing a new challenge discrimination. "People judged me not by my work, but by my background," he recalled. Many doubted his abilities simply because he was an Asian trying to rise in a corporate world dominated by Westerners. "They didn’t want someone like me to lead," he admitted. "But I believed in myself. I knew my worth. So I stayed patient and let my work prove them wrong."
The workplace was competitive, and Muralidharan knew he had to be exceptional to break through the barriers. He absorbed everything how successful leaders made decisions, how businesses functioned, how to command respect. "I wanted to be better than anyone who doubted me. I wanted to show them that skill and hard work mattered more than where you came from," he said.
Slowly, the tables turned. His intelligence, discipline, and ability to manage people won him the respect he had always deserved. He climbed the corporate ladder, proving that success isn’t about where you come from it’s about what you bring to the table. From an entry-level position, he rose to managerial roles, earning admiration from colleagues and superiors alike. "In the end, it wasn’t my background that defined me it was my persistence," he said with pride. His journey was proof that obstacles only make victories sweeter.

The River's Reflection: Finding Peace in Nature's Embrace
Despite his professional achievements, Muralidharan’s heart always belonged to nature. "I talk to trees," he once said with a smile. "I sit by rivers for hours, just watching the water flow. There is something about nature it listens when no one else does."
His love for travel was just as strong. He explored 120 countries, taking in their cultures, their landscapes, and their lessons. "Traveling is not just about seeing places," he believed. "It’s about understanding people. It’s about learning new ways to think and live." Every new place he visited added to his wealth of knowledge, reinforcing his belief that learning never stops.
Yet, one regret stayed with him. "I wanted to be a cricketer," he admitted. "But life took me in a different direction." While he never played professionally, his love for the sport never faded. He carried it with him, just like all the other dreams he had once nurtured.
The Power of Learned Wisdom: Building a Life of Purpose
Through every twist and turn, Muralidharan held on to one simple truth: "Believe in yourself. If you don’t, no one else will." He knew that life was not about titles or degrees, but about perseverance, discipline, and self-belief.
A book that deeply influenced him was Cain and Abel, a story of struggle and ambition. "That book taught me not just how to be successful, but how to live," he said. "It showed me that success is about resilience, about learning from failures and rising again." Reading became a refuge for him, shaping his thoughts and helping him make sense of the challenges he faced.
For him, setbacks were never reasons to stop. "Everything happens for a reason. Even failure teaches you something," he would say. His life was proof of this belief each challenge only made him stronger, wiser, and more determined to move forward. His ability to learn from every situation, whether from a book, a conversation, or an experience, was the foundation of his success.
