Praise for Discover Your Diamond
I love “Discover your Diamond”! Like a diamond, the value of a human being is greatly enhanced through the “cuts and polish” of difficult challenges and diverse experiences. In this wonderful book, Vinay Singh provides real-life advice and tools for knowing, accepting and nurturing your authentic self by embracing life’s events with a growth mindset that ultimately contributes to personal transformation that can benefit millions.
Kumar R Parakala | President at GHD Digital, former Global COO & Managing Partner at KPMG & entrepreneur.

The problem with most self-improvement books is that they come from a theoretical construct which is often far removed from authenticity and truth.
Vinay’s book is a refreshing change. He comes at it from a deep understanding of life, and hence most of the book is extremely relatable. They say the biggest asset of a coach is the power of listening. Vinay’s writing will make you understand the power of many years of listening. That’s why this book stands out. It’s a breezy read and makes you think. In a world where most things stop you from fundamental thinking, this book is a welcome change.
Partha Sinha | President, The Times of India Group, and former Vice Chairman & MD, McCann Worldgroup.

Saint Ramakrishna Paramhansa had said, “ wherever you see a pile of ashes, blow them away and search beyond….you may find a priceless gem hidden underneath ”. Vinay Singh – a person I admire as a teacher and a mentor, has shown in this book how one can clear away what he calls ‘ALGAE’ to discover the diamond that lies within. This book is an eye-opener in the true sense of the word.
Subrata Dutta | President - APAC and Middle East at Samsonite

Vinay has been a Senior of mine from IIT Kharagpur in not just age but also wisdom. Starting from my first meeting at the early age of 18 years and guidance on how to navigate life at IIT, whenever I have connected with Vinay, he has been a great mentor, coach and guide on the professional and personal front.
In “Discover your Diamond”, Vinay captures the professional, spiritual and existential challenges we face at times in our careers and presents a roadmap to navigate successfully. Across the various Global leadership roles I have had at DXC, Accenture, and Cisco running $1B+ businesses, I wish I had the benefit of this book. I look forward to adopting the approach and continuing to be part of his 4% club.
Raghu Puri | CEO, Celsior Technologies, former Managing Director Accenture & Global Head of Interactive Services Cisco.

An inspiring and straightforward concept that can lead us to access a higher level of success in all aspects of life. A practical approach that leads to astounding results. A true must-read.
Arjun Sen | Founder & CEO ZenMango, and Host of “Secrets to Win Big® Podcast.”

This book has everything that has helped me transform my life - all the tips and tricks, and more. It will save you years of hard work to decode the mantra for success and happiness. Pure wisdom, highly recommended if you are serious about getting more out of your life!

Foreword
I am delighted that Vinay has written this wonderful book containing pearls of wisdom to help all of us discover the diamond within us. It is indeed ironic that we seek happiness all over when real happiness is within us.
Thank you, Vinay, for helping us dust off the layers of cynicism and scepticism to see the shining diamond of positivity and happiness. Dear reader, the fact that the signals of the universe motivated you to pick this book to read is a good sign. This book is the handbook you need on this journey of self-discovery.
I very clearly remember the day I met Vinay for the first time. As a seventeen-year-old, on July 12, 1979, I reached Patel Hall of Residence to report as a first-year student in Aeronautical Engineering at IIT Kharagpur. I was very excited about joining IIT. I had studied hard for two years to clear the IIT entrance examinations, and finally, I was here in Kharagpur to report as a first-year student on campus. Excited, I certainly was, but I was full of trepidation about the ragging and what the seniors had in mind for me. As soon as I walked into the lobby of Patel Hall, I saw this young man sitting on the couch with long hair and a red bandana. I was sure that he was one of the seniors, and I sheepishly put my head down and said, “Good morning, sir.” He looked at me, and with a warm smile, he introduced himself as Vinay Singh, a fellow first-year Aeronautical Engineering student who had come from Jamshedpur. I was amazed by his confidence and poise. He seemed to have it all sorted. Instantaneously, he was my first guru on campus! Over the next five years, we became close friends. We had rooms in the same wing, and we often walked to class together. Vinay has always had a great presence of mind and a sense of timing. One of our fond memories is that of the time we had organised the Patel Hall Perpendicular Olympics .
We both graduated in 1984, and we moved on in different directions. While we have not been in regular contact, we have stayed in touch and met a few times in Mumbai, Nagpur, Sydney, and, most recently, Pune. Over the last few years, WhatsApp has been our platform for staying in touch.
Right from that first meeting, I have always looked up to Vinay. He has a calm and inspiring demeanour. Over the last fifteen years, Vinay has spent many years figuring out how to understand life better. I call him every so often, and every time, he provides an instant recharge and pointed words of wisdom. I am glad he has chosen to pen them in the form of this book, which I am sure all of us will find very valuable.
Over the last thirty-two years, I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to lead Persistent Systems. As part of
