New Delhi [India], July 23: Mr Sanjeev Kwatra, a renowned industry expert and motivational speaker, urges India’s youth to balance ambition with peace, adopt mindful practices, and reflect deeply before imitating Western ideals.

In an era dominated by competition, stress, and the constant race for more, renowned industry expert and motivational speaker, Mr. Sanjeev Kwatra offers a timely call for introspection. Through a deeply reflective message, he emphasises that the challenges facing Indian society today, especially among the youth, stem not from the erosion of values but from their transformation, misuse, and misunderstanding. “The term ‘values’ itself becomes questionable when we say they are declining. If they are truly values, they don’t decline — they evolve,” he explains.

A Shift in Perspective, Not a Decline in Values

Western societies are often viewed as examples of cultural decline. However, he challenges this notion by highlighting the calmness, order, and self-care that many Western countries exhibit. People there value solitude, connect with nature, take regular vacations, and nurture a reading culture things that support mental and emotional well-being.

Meanwhile, India is witnessing a growing disconnect from its own value systems. “We’ve become trapped in constant utility,” he observes. From chasing salaries to increasing productivity, the rhythm of Indian urban life leaves little room for rest, reflection, or personal growth. The focus has shifted from being to doing and often, doing too much.

Greed, Growth & the Misplaced Pursuit of Wealth

Mr. Sanjeev Kwatra addresses a core concern: the rising greed masked as ambition. He likens the uncontrolled desire for money to overeating, just as the body can only consume a limited amount of food, the pursuit of wealth should also have natural limits. But in today’s world, wealth has become a number game with no finish line.

“It’s not that earning money is wrong. It only becomes harmful when it brings stress and robs us of peace,” he explains. He advocates earning through balance, making enough to feel secure, but not at the cost of well-being or personal relationships.

Youth and the Art of Balance

Speaking directly to students and young professionals, Mr. Sanjeev Kwatra emphasises that youth is the time to build not just careers but character. He warns against equating money with success. “Money should be seen as a tool, not a target,” he says. At this formative stage, chasing financial goals too early can dilute intellectual clarity and emotional strength.

He encourages young minds to seek meaning rather than merely outcomes. Books, physical activity, and hobbies should take priority over scrolling on mobile phones. Laptops, he adds, are better tools for learning, while phones often breed distraction. The focus should be on mindful use of resources, not mindless consumption.

Time Is Life: Learn to Use It Mindfully

A large part of imbalance, he believes, comes from poor time management. “Time is life itself. Wasting time is wasting life,” he remarks. He criticises the passive overconsumption of entertainment, especially television and social media, which often serve as escapes but end up stealing hours.

As a remedy, he recommends age-old Indian practices like Tratak—a yogic eye exercise that improves focus and cleanses visual toxins. Simple, practical disciplines like this, when practised daily, help restore inner calm and increase clarity. True time management, he adds, isn’t just about scheduling. It’s about discerning how much time to give to each activity and ensuring it’s adding value, not just passing time.

Stress and Body Awareness: The Need to Let Go

Mr Sanjeev Kwatra also addresses the silent epidemic of youth stress, often intensified by parental pressure and societal expectations. Goals are important, he agrees, but obsessively clinging to them is counterproductive. He offers a helpful analogy: “If you have to travel 500 kilometres, don’t fixate on the entire distance. Focus on the next 100 or 150. Break it down.” This step-by-step mindset reduces anxiety and helps build momentum.

To support stress relief, he recommends Jalandhara Bandha, a yogic practice where the body is fully relaxed and thoughts are released. It promotes lightness, reduces tension, and supports mental clarity. These practices, when incorporated regularly, can transform the youth experience from one of pressure to one of purpose.

India at a Cultural Crossroads

According to him, the core issue facing modern India isn’t that we’ve followed the West, it’s that we’ve done so without discernment. “If we had adopted their culture with understanding, this wouldn’t be a problem. The lack of intellectual reflection is the real issue,” he explains.

Today, he believes India stands at a pivotal moment: either continue down a path of blind imitation and burnout, or thoughtfully integrate progress with traditional wisdom. The choice, he says, must be conscious.

A Call to Reflect and Reclaim

Mr. Sanjeev Kwatra’s message is a profound yet practical appeal, not to reject growth, technology, or global influence, but to engage with them consciously and selectively. India’s youth, he says, must learn to balance ambition with inner peace, movement with stillness, and consumption with contentment.

“Small shifts in daily thought and practice can lead to deeply fulfilling lives. We don’t need to slow down—we need to wake up,” he concludes.
