Anand Mahindra inspires followers on Friday morning with THIS Olympics example

Indian business tycoon Anand Mahindra's love for sports is well documented. The chairman of Mahindra Group along with his brother-in-law and sports commentator, Charu Sharma, launched Pro Kabaddi League in 2014, which has rekindled the craze for Kabaddi in the country. A vocal personality on social media, Anand Mahindra shared a meme of a lifeguard vouching for the safety of some of the world’s most efficient swimmers during the Olympics.

Anand Mahindra motivates his followers by sharing Olympics lifeguard meme

In a Friday morning Twitter post, Anand Mahindra encouraged his followers to never feel “useless” and reminded them that there’s someone who assumed the job of a lifeguard at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Mahindra reiterated with a “No job is unimportant" meme, where a lifesaver was stationed at the side of the pool watching the Olympic swimmers critically with waterproof screens.

While having a lifeguard for some of the world's best swimmers might be deemed completely unnecessary, Anand Mahindra believes that his presence was at the end of the day ‘essential’. The 65-year-old's post comes in at a time where the world has been brought to a standstill amidst the pandemic, where businesses have suffered unprecedented losses. Netizens found inspiration from Anand Mahindra's Olympics tweet and agreed with the business tycoon's assessment.

Anand Mahindra is known to share inspirational quotes and anecdotes on Twitter and never shies away from speaking his mind. The 65-year-old, on Independence Day this year, had shared a video of a young child adorably singing the Indian national anthem and claimed that he listened to the video every year. Anand Mahindra added that the child's innocence and concentration moves him as much as the best rendition of the national anthem. The business tycoon last week shared a dose of philosophy with his followers, quoting Dr Steve Maraboli.
