Still, today I struggle not to be doing something useful all the time.- I had landed in the US with $500. I was at Yale. I searched high and low in that Wawa for curds, but I couldn't find them.

For a company that made citrus processing machines, I crawled through juice plants in Brazil and Florida and learned the intricacies of squeezing oranges with different commercial machines.

Plain and simple account of an incredible journey of a colored female immigrant to reach the top of a world largest corporate and turn it around for the world's good and company's good. Win win win mantra all through without any artificial roller coaster.Great insight in to the challenges from inside and resistance for the outside family for a woman of color. No wonder they depicted Hindu goddesses with several hands adorned with different instruments, tools and weapons.Thank you, Mrs. Indra Nooyi.

It is a must read autobiography and the most relevant in the current times for every Indian girl. Because you can easily relate to most of the aspects in the book. The environment, context and the ambitions of a growing up girl who is now the role model for many. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the whole narrative and had many wow moments where Indra described the “Performance with Purpose”, the opening note between the two PM’s where each described her to be one of them and the aspect of humility & due diligence leaves you a long lasting impression. One of the most authentic book in the recent times. Thanks a lot Indra for sharing your story with us:)

So much to learn from this book!

There is only one way to describe Indra Nooyi's autobiography: phenomenal! She talks about success and goal-setting from a point of view that's not item taken very seriously: the woman and the outsider. She speaks of success without arrogance, but with a sweet and charming modesty, and with surprise at how lucky her circumstance was that she could use all of her skill to it's maximum potential

I was always in awe with that smile that's coordinated with the strings of pearls around her neck...she was an inspiration to many and for girls in India, she is an epitome of what they can achieve ❤️#indranooyi and her book #mylifeinfull are stories of inspiration, struggle, a constant run to balance, passion, how a family's support can help and many more..!!A couple of things I learnt readig this one and are going to remain with me for long- Having a boss who pushes you to the extremes is a mark of a progressive career. Getting your boss right is the most luckiest thing that can happen to you.- Progress for women can come with guilt but it's your passion that drives you out and makes a proud journey. When your family supports you well but when you are not there for them, they understand but your guilt doesn't.- Nothing is easy for women in the corporate. Doesn't matter if you are a fresh recruit or the CEO of a Conglomerate. It takes a lot of competence and strength to make them forget your gender and skin color.- When you lead, it's your smile that everyone looks forward to. Complaining only complicates and if you are woman, the complication can multiply@indranooyi ma'am you were, are and forever will be an inspiration ❤️ can't tell you how much I spoke about you to everyone around me while I was reading your book. My full.respects to your strength, courage and drive. And heartful thanks to.your family because of whom we all got to be inspired ❤️

Superb reading.

Loved the way that this book tied in Indra’s fascinating experiences with important messages around the need for support networks to allow people to reach their full potential.

I had the fortune of knowing Indra Nooyi on her first visit to ABB Brazil. At that time she was the Senior VP of Strategy for the Industry Segment reporting to Gerhard Shulmeyer.Her positive energy and professionalism during the meetings she led was impressive.When I heard about the release of this book, I immediately bought a copy for my daughter.

Exceptional mind, such a inspirational human being. This is a book I will read over and over and every time when I’m down. The book hands over her hope, her bravery, her inspiration and most importantly her humble attitude towards other ppl, society and life.I salute this outstanding human being and appreciate this book.
