info_outlineSuccess is about touching people’s lives. It’s not about how much money you have in the bank, how many properties you have acquired, how much your watch costs. It’s about how many people you have helped and inspired. Sometimes all it takes is one simple gesture, and we can put a smile on someone’s face and make them feel less alone. That is what we should live for. Jimmy Mistry, the Chairman of Della Group and founder of Della Leaders Club, is someone who embodies this definition of success.
