Some of the most important decisions in life are better taken
instinctively and not after deep analysis. Once you start deliberating,
it becomes extremely difficult to reach a definite conclusion. In 1979,
when I was working at the World Bank in Washington DC, Lovraj Kumar [an
IAS officer] advised me to come back to India. He actually wanted me to
join him as a consultant in the Bureau of Industrial Costs and Prices.
Relying on instinct, I decided to return to India and agreed to start
working with him from 1 January 1980. I was all of 25 years old and had
absolutely no idea of what was in store for me in Delhi. Today, I
cannot even remember what exactly prompted my decision. But instinct
won that day. The rest, as they say, is history.
