2026 isn’t about hustling harder, it’s about thinking better.
As part of The 2026 RESET series, this episode of The Masoom Minawala Show focuses on mindset & the invisible force shaping our relationship with money, success, work, and self-worth.
In this deep, honest (and surprisingly liberating) conversation, Masoom Minawala sits down with Rajiv Talreja, entrepreneur, mentor, and business coach to unpack why hard work alone doesn’t guarantee wealth, why success can still feel heavy, and how our early conditioning quietly drives our financial and life decisions.
In this episode, we talk about:
* Why hard work doesn’t always translate into money
* The mindset difference between survival and success
* Why people earn more but still feel scarcity
* The guilt of receiving and enjoying success
* Effort vs capability vs opportunity
* Why your business should support your life & not replace it
* How abundance starts emotionally before it shows up financially
* Redefining success beyond hustle and social validation
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything 'right' but still feel stuck, stressed, or dissatisfied, this conversation will resonate deeply.
This episode is for anyone entering 2026 seeking:
✨ clarity over chaos
✨ intention over impulse
✨ mindset over noise
🎧 Watch till the end, this one stays with you.
