  What happens when the company you built from nothing becomes worth millions, and you're not sure if you should sell your soul along with it? Accidentally Sold the Business I Built is the raw, unfiltered story of an entrepreneur who started with ₹15,000, a 120-square-foot room, and a stubborn dream that education could be built with heart, not just capital. From delivering pizzas to survive his first failure, to building Intellect Educare into a movement that transformed thousands of lives through classrooms, blood donation camps, and child safety programs, Dr. Periasamy Pradeep's journey is anything but ordinary. But this isn't a triumphant startup success story. It's about what comes after the headlines fade: the sleepless nights negotiating with corporate giants, the weight of protecting your people while chasing growth, and the spiritual reckoning of selling something you poured your soul into. This book asks the questions most founders are too afraid to voice: Can you sell a company without betraying its purpose? What do you owe the people who believed in you when no one else did? And when success finally arrives, why does it feel so much like loss? Written with brutal honesty and deep humanity, this memoir strips away the mythology of entrepreneurship to reveal its messy, beautiful, heartbreaking truth. It's a story for every dreamer who's ever built something they loved, failed publicly, risen quietly, and learned that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let go. Because some exits aren't endings. They're transformations.

  An historical audiobook 'Another load of Bull' by David Read,  read from Jason Savidge.  The war was over and David, returning to East Africa, asked himself, as did many of his contemporaries, "what next"? It was not an easy world in which to readjust. He opted to become a Livvestock Marketing Officer in Dodoma, with the Tanganyika Veterinary Department. Money was short, and Pat, who had also been demobbed and had joined him in Dodoma, nursed to help augment their income.    Finally, the break David had been hoping for materialized and he embarked on a new chapter in his life as a wheat farmer on the Western slopes of Kilimanjaro. With no formal training, David survived largely on his local knowledge and language skills, supplemented by his cattle buying. Life on 'Mountainside' suited David, despite the constant battle against Africa's unforgiving environment, but the winds of change were to bring a greater challenge and one that would ultimately end David's dreams.

  Born and raised on the streets of Southtown, two exits from the Mexico border, Sonny Sandoval was always going to go his own way. And as frontman of the platinum selling nu metal band P.O.D.—a group too Christian for the world and too secular for the church—he has broken every mold, defied every expectation, and reached into the hearts and minds of hundreds of thousands of people who wanted to belong to something but never felt like they fit in. 
   
   
   
  Sonny's life has been one lived on the edge between two worlds, a line he has attempted to walk with integrity. Raw and uncut, this memoir tells his true story of growing up in the gritty beauty south of San Diego, his early musical influences and big breaks, his rise to fame and many hardships and struggles along the way. 
   
   
   
  From stories of performing in cornfields at the Cornerstone Music Festival to rocking MTV's Total Request Live with Carson Daly to playing in New York City just weeks after 9/11, and every unglamorous moment in between, this hard-hitting memoir will have you believing that there's no one right way to follow God's call. Instead, Sonny's story will inspire you to be totally and uniquely you at all times, without apology and without compromise—but with passion and integrity.
