Anand Mahindra shares 'thoughtful' message along with image he keeps in his folder

Indian billionaire businessman Anand Mahindra on August 3 shared an image that he keeps in his folder for a “thoughtful” reminder about dreams and aspirations. Taking to Twitter, the chairman of Mahindra Group shared an image of a boy using a laptop with half-bitten apple, similar to Apple logo, taped to the back of the screen. Explaining the reason, he elaborated that it is always in the folder not because it reminds him of what any brand should aspire to become, instead, for him, the image is a constant reminder of the fact that reality is what an individual’s aspirations and dreams “want it to be”. Ending the caption with hashtag #MondayMorning, Anand Mahindra’s post has garnered over eight thousand likes and hundreds of comments.
