His passion is to help business owners, entrepreneurs, leaders, and sales professionals learn how to persuade and influence like pros to increase their revenue by 10x.

Muralidharan identified a common problem: people start the day with specific tasks but end up jumping from one task to another, leading to a pile of unfinished tasks and trivial accomplishments at the end of the day. He went down the rabbit hole of productivity research, tried different productivity systems, and created his own. However, this only aggravated the problem of doing trivial tasks instead of essential ones.

Muralidharan realized that it was the mindset behind the productivity system that was the problem, not the system itself. He identified three challenges: mindset, environment, and ability.

The First Challenge

The first challenge is the industrial revolution mindset, where the more tasks are done in a shorter period, the more productive you are. This mindset leads to doing trivial tasks that don't move the needle.

The Second Challenge

The second challenge is the 21st-century environment, which is custom-built for distractions.

The Third Challenge

The third challenge is the ability to focus, which has vanished, becoming a handicap. Our educational system is still stuck in the industrial revolution era, and people are not taught how to handle 21st-century distractions. Muralidharan is determined to help individuals overcome these challenges and change their mindset to one that will lead to success.
