I know a young man named Chaitanya Charan. He was a top-ranked student in India, a brilliant engineer. He did exactly what society told him to do. He studied hard, he worked long hours, and he got a near-perfect score on his GRE—2350/2400. He was the first in the history of his university to achieve that. He had the dream job at a multinational corporation. He had the “success” everyone else was chasing. But he told me, “Caru, I reached the top of the mountain and realized I was still empty.” He was “frustrated by success”.
