Hello everyone, my name is Bishal Gyawali. You may know me as a medical oncologist, but I also like to think of myself as a philosopher. This website is the place for my philosophical thoughts. For my oncology work, refer to my oncology page.
I built this site primarily to post the chapters from my Journey of Success Book.

I hope you will find your subscription to this site meaningful. Cheers!
