It sounds like a play of words that we are human beings and not human doings. And yet, most people are focused on doing things rather than being.

The answer isn't that simple, as I have heard both sides of the argument. Some say that they focus on doing to be something or someone. At the same time, others say that they focus on being someone to do something.

So, in today's episode, Ben and I are talking about the power of being and his new book.

In this episode, we are talking about:

• Why did you write "The Power of Being?"
• What about the notion of 'doing something which leads to being something?'
• What challenges do we face when talking in terms of being versus doing?
• On adaptability.
• What is the meaning of connection to you?
• How is it different than social media connection?
• About the upcoming book "Love Work." Who is this book for?
