This is not a success story.This is not motivation.This is an experiment I am running on my own life.
In Episode 5 of The Billionaire Challenge, I’m documenting something uncomfortable but real:
👉 Poverty is not just about money.👉 It is a mindset that quietly decides your limits before life does.
I didn’t learn this from books.I learned this while waiting outside hospital cabins.
The Experiment I Chose
I gave myself a dangerous challenge:
“In the next 180 days, I will become a billionaire.”
Not because I know how.Not because I have resources.But because big aims break small thinking.
When you aim small, your brain behaves small.When you aim big, your excuses get exposed.
This challenge is not about reaching the destination.It’s about watching what breaks inside you when you try.
My Current Reality (No Editing)
I decided to approach 12,000 hospitals across South India.
What does that look like in real life?
I hired a team for cold calling
We pitch corporate films to hospitals
I personally do direct walk-ins
So far, I’ve reached 100 hospitals in Hyderabad
What actually happens?
100 cold calls → decisions delayed
Meetings postponed endlessly
Rejections without explanations
Waiting 45 minutes to 1 hour just to hear“We’ll get back to you”
People make me wait.People don’t take me seriously.
This is not theory.This is my daily environment.
And instead of fighting it, I accepted it.
Because acceptance gives clarity.
Waiting Is Not a Waste (I Had to Learn This)
Most people are waiting in life anyway.
Waiting to escape 9–5.Waiting for approval.Waiting for confidence.Waiting for the “right time.”
I am also waiting.
Waiting in hospital corridors
Waiting outside cabins
Waiting for decision-makers
The difference?
👉 I am waiting with awareness, not frustration.
This phase is compulsory.You don’t skip it.You survive it.
Looking at Problems Without Judging Them
Earlier, I used to label situations as:
Bad
Unfair
Disrespectful
That thinking kept me stuck.
Now I’m testing a different approach:
No judgment
Only observation
Treating failures as data
Instead of asking “Why is this happening to me?”I ask “What is this situation teaching me?”
That one shift changes everything.
The Morning Experiment (This Changed My Energy)
Here’s my current template — raw and honest:
Daytime:Survival modeSalesMeetingsWaitingRejections
Morning (4–10 AM):PassionSkill-buildingProduct creation
Every morning, I work on something that comes from my heart.
Right now, that is writing a screenplay.
If it sells, it makes money.If it doesn’t, it sharpens my skill.
For years, I ignored this inner voice.Now I treat mornings like non-negotiable territory.
👉 Morning time is where escape routes are built.
Skills → Money → Products (What I’m Testing)
This is not theory. I’ve done this already.
I wrote a book: Golden Dreams
Sold 3 books
Ran ads
Sold through social media
Conducted workshops using my existing skills
We live in the fastest communication era ever.If you can’t monetize skills today, it’s not the market — it’s clarity.
I’m testing how far skill leverage can really go.
Day 9: No Change in Position
It’s been 9 days.
Nothing dramatic has changed.No breakthrough moment.No viral success.
And that’s okay.
The rule of the experiment is simple:
👉 Fight till Day 180.
No quitting mid-way.No romanticizing struggle.Just showing up.
Body, Mind, and Mental Noise
I’ve added simple rules:
Exercise between 7–10 PM
Walk daily (ideas come while walking)
Listen to audiobooks during walks
Keep books around me
Whenever I feel blocked, I don’t overthink.
I download a book related to that problemand listen to how others escaped similar traps.
Books don’t motivate me.They reset my thinking.
Mental Movies (This Felt Weird, But I’m Doing It)
The brain runs on images.
So I started:
Visualizing myself as a billionaire
Creating a mental movie
Talking to myself
Recording videos
Listening back to my own voice
At first, it felt awkward.Now it feels grounding.
Repetition slowly replaces doubt.
For Anyone Going Through a Breakdown Phase
This experiment is not only for high-energy people.
If you’re:
Recovering from injury
Coming out of surgery
Facing mental health struggles
On a career break
Then this applies even more.
👉 Focus only on daily targets.
Small wins rebuild rhythm.Baby steps restore self-trust.
Your life is still your responsibility —but you’re allowed to move slowly.
What Episode 5 Really Is
Episode 5 is not about becoming rich.
It’s about:
Breaking the poverty mindset
Accepting reality without drama
Working on survival and passion together
Building skills that can scale
Fighting even when nothing moves
This is not inspiration content.
This is a live experimentwith real waiting, real rejection, real self-doubt.
And I’m documenting it so you can see:what actually happens before success stories are written.
Final Thought
Time is moving whether you act or not.
Discipline is not optional.Peace of mind is an asset.Big dreams demand uncomfortable experiments.
This is my experiment.Episode 5 is just the documentation.
If you’re running your own silent battle —you’re not alone.
Just don’t quit the experiment midway.
