Books are the path to personal freedom.

~Oprah Winfrey

“Books are a man’s best friend.” “Books are a uniquely portable magic.” “Books take you to new places.”

We have all heard it before, and truth be told; only those who fully understand what books are capable of know that these statements are actually true. There is only a small population who knows that even though books are crafted from words of black and white, they have the power of making and breaking worlds. Through reading, a person is able to find himself lost, yet found, in a world that is seemingly unreal, but is fully existential in the reader’s head.

Probably one of the reasons why people who read commit themselves to read forever is because of the diversity they find in genres. Horror, sci-fi, mystery, thriller, romance, war fiction, travel guides, memoirs, biographies, the list of how “many types of books” is endless!

Thankfully, there are brilliant authors who realize that the most important about penning down a book is the ignition of the connection between the book and its reader.

The Vision and A Himalayan Voyage are two spectacularly created books that completely check off the engagement, connection, and diverse frontiers. And it is all thanks to the mastermind, Uday Sadhwani!

VISION

Published on June 20, 2017, Vision is Uday Sadhwani’s finest works, which was published by Notion Press. The book is a collection of poetry on life, nature, and a combination of the two, which was authored by Sadhwani when he was just 20!

From the journey of a man who starts his life by struggling and how he goes through various stages in life, the poetry beautifully captures every stance, move, and event that the individual has to face throughout the phases of life. It also provides a deep insight into how a person’s mind works along with his actions and the emotional experience he experiences in every situation. The poetry also contrasts two of the world’s most powerful sources; the brain and nature, and how a person envisions his life through a combination of both. 

A HIMALAYAN VOYAGE

Published on April 30, 2020, A Himalayan Voyage is a personal book that narrates the tale of Uday Sadhwani’s adventures in the Himalayas.

Living in one of the most dangerous roads in all of Himalayas, Uday Sadhwani offers a first-hand experience in the book, where he ventures high in the Himalayas. Uday Sadhwani resides in the three most elevated villages of Himalayas, and the book provides a record of all the experiences that the author went through, exploring, and having the time of his life in the unprecedented spots. The book perfectly encapsulates the author’s experience of urban life.

The book further discusses his excursions, experiences, and a portion of his most intriguing minutes in the Himalayas. In the end, the book discusses the authors’ companions whom he lost mysteriously while trekking in the tricky mountains.

A Himalaya Voyage was also featured in the Amazon Bestsellers (Top 100) in the Travel Section.

Why Derik Fay Is Becoming a Case Study in Long-Haul Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship today is often framed in extremes — overnight exits or public flameouts. But a small cohort of operators is being studied for something far less viral: consistency. Among them, Derik Fay has quietly surfaced as a long-term figure whose name appears frequently across sectors, interviews, and editorial mentions — yet whose personal visibility remains relatively limited.

Fay’s career spans more than 20 years and includes work in private investment, business operations, and emerging entertainment ventures. Though many of his companies are not household names, the volume and duration of his activity have made him a subject of interest among business media outlets and founders who study entrepreneurial longevity over fame.

He was born in Westerly, Rhode Island, in 1978, and while much of his early career remains undocumented publicly, recent profiles including recurring features in Forbes — have chronicled his current portfolio and leadership methods. These accounts often emphasize his pattern of working behind the scenes, embedding within businesses rather than leading from a distance. His style is often described by peers as “operational first, media last.”

Fay has also become recognizable for his consistency in leadership approach: focus on internal systems, low public profile, and long-term strategy over short-term visibility. At 46 years old, his posture in business remains one of longevity rather than disruption  a contrast to many of the more heavily publicized entrepreneurs of the post-2010 era.

While Fay has never publicly confirmed his net worth, independent analysis based on documented real estate holdings, corporate exits, and investment activity suggests a conservative floor of $100 million, with several credible indicators placing the figure at well over $250 million. The exact number may remain private  but the scale is increasingly difficult to overlook.

He is also involved in creative sectors, including film and media, and maintains a presence on social platforms, though not at the scale or tone of many personal-brand-driven CEOs. He lives with his long-term partner, Shandra Phillips, and is the father of two daughters — both occasionally referenced in interviews, though rarely centered.

While not an outspoken figure, Fay’s work continues to gain media attention. The reason may lie in the contrast he presents: in a climate of rapid rises and equally rapid burnout, his profile reflects something less dramatic but increasingly valuable — steadiness.

There are no viral speeches. No Twitter threads drawing blueprints. Just a track record that’s building its own momentum over time.

Whether that style becomes the norm for the next wave of founders is unknown. But it does offer something more enduring than buzz: a model of entrepreneurship where attention isn’t the currency — results are.
