THE VACATION MINDSET : How To Live With Purpose & Peace Every Single Day

Inspired by Dr. Abhishek Gilara

We often hear people say, “I need a break” or “I can’t wait for the weekend.” For most of us, life is a cycle of hustle followed by moments of rest—like mini pit stops on a long, endless road. But what if we told you there’s a way to design your life so you never need a break from it?

Dr. Abhishek Gilara, visionary leader of Rambhajo’s and Advit Jewels, once lived in this cycle too—chasing productivity and then escaping to vacations, only to return feeling both satisfied and slightly restless. Until one question reframed everything:

Why not design a life where I’m happy in both states—holiday and hustle?

The Turning Point: From Either/Or to Both

This wasn’t just a whimsical idea. It became a blueprint for transformation.

Dr. Gilara, known for his books I Was Born Tomorrow and Echoes of Wisdom, used a combination of systems thinking, mentorship, and structured living to create a life that didn’t require him to choose between rest and responsibility.

He mastered:

• Systems thinking & digital automation to streamline operations.

• Team independence, so daily decisions didn’t bottleneck at him.

• Digital control, enabling him to lead from anywhere—office or oceanside.

• Fixed rhythms for work, family, and fitness—ensuring balance without burnout.

  
  

The Result?

A life where vacation isn’t a location—it’s a mindset.

"I am at work when I need to lead. I am on holiday when I need to breathe. But at all times—I am happy." — Dr. Abhishek Gilara

The Freedom Formula

This mindset isn’t about working less. It’s about working aligned.

When your business systems are clear, your team empowered, your day structured with intention—you experience what many only dream of: freedom with purpose.

This is not an accidental luxury. It’s a deliberate design.

You don’t need to escape your life to find joy. You need to engineer your life to make joy the

default state—where every hour is either creation or celebration, not crisis management.

Can You Live This Way Too?

Absolutely.

Start with small, consistent shifts:

• Define your non-negotiables (family, health, spiritual time).

• Digitalize and delegate wherever possible.

• Train your team like you’re training leaders, not followers.

• Align daily action with long-term vision.

You’re not chasing balance. You’re creating harmony.

Stop waiting for your next vacation to feel joy. Design a life where you wake up grateful and go to bed fulfilled.

That’s not just success.That’s not just freedom.

That’s being always on purpose—and always at peace.
