An Ounce

From Taxi Driver to Visionary: A Tale of Vision, Wealth, and Making Dreams a Reality

Jim Fugate Season 6 Episode 29

I had the privilege of listening to a few of the experiences and insights of an extraordinary man. A man whom most are probably not very familiar with. His Name is Raja Dhaliwal. 

10 years or so ago, Raj was a taxi driver. He was working long hours in a one of the larger cities in Canada, hauling folk to and from the airport. Raj is generally quiet, very respectful, and kind. 

Raj was not born in Canada – he emigrated there to find a better life. 

Raj has olive skin, a long full beard, and he also wears a turban. And, he is most concerned with how he feels in his heart than how he looks to you. 

I heard him speak a year or so ago to a packed house – Tens of thousands of people. His English was not perfect – but he was very conversant and clear. But, communicating with people is something he does quite well – in at least 4 languages. 

What did this simple cab driver have to say that was so appreciated by those tens of thousands who were there to listen to them?
