The Indian Brain Hack, Vol. 2: From WhatsApp Wisdom to Lazy Genius is a witty and research-rich self-help guide designed specifically for Indian working professionals and entrepreneurs. It explores how modern issues like digital overload, habit systems, strategic laziness, and smart quitting play out in an Indian context.
In Chapter 1, you’ll find the truth about why our critical thinking got hijacked by forwards, filters, and outrage culture. Chapter 2 shows why motivation rarely lasts but well-designed habits do, with Indian case studies from gym apps to fintech firms. Chapter 3 redefines laziness as productive when used strategically, featuring tales of startup pivots and the dabbawalas of Mumbai.
Chapter 4 argues that quitting isn’t failure but the smart play, especially in a culture that glorifies endurance. Chapter 5 delves into decision-making in chaos, showing how Indian entrepreneurs thrive on uncertainty, iteration, and feedback loops. In the final chapter, you’ll learn how to reprogram your mind for the future, shifting from passive reaction to active adaptation. Throughout, you’ll discover behavioural techniques grounded in psychology and neuroscience, but explained through desi humour, Indian stories and real-life frameworks.
From leveraging neuroplasticity to building a high-AQ (Adaptability Quotient) mindset, the book uses search-friendly themes like mindset shift, Indian innovation, habits for productivity, self-improvement in India, and digital behaviour. If you’re ready to stop waiting for inspiration, stop just thinking differently, and start acting differently, this book offers the blueprint. It’s for those who want to upgrade their brain, their habits, and their future Indian style.
