<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"></div></div></div>In many ways, Tim Ferriss carries on a tradition well-established by Tony Robbins: finding people at the top of their fields, determining what makes them tick, and then passing those insights to a general audience.After Ferriss, who authored bestseller "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/4-Hour-Workweek-Escape-Live-Anywhere/dp/0307465357">The 4-Hour Workweek</a>,"&#xa0;<a href="http://tim.blog/2014/10/15/money-master-the-game/">interviewed Robbins in 2014</a> for his podcast, he enrolled in one of Robbins' seminars - the four-day "<a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/tony-robbins-positive-thinking-doesnt-work-2016-7">Unleash the Power Within</a>," with admission starting at around $800 - to get an experience of the events that made Robbins famous.Ferriss wrote in his book "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Tools-Titans-Billionaires-World-Class-Performers/dp/1328683788">Tools of Titans</a>" that his friend Navin Thukkaram, a successful investor and entrepreneur, has attended Unleash the Power Within 11 times, and considered a particular exercise to "his main reason for attending every year."The Dickens Process, as the exercise is called, is done in a venue typically packed with a few thousand people, and while Ferriss said the crowd atmosphere and Robbins' presence onstage enhances the experience, the basics can be completed on one's own.The exercise gets its name from Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," where Scrooge is visited by ghosts showing him a look at his past, present, and future."In the Dickens Process, you're forced to examine limiting beliefs - say your top two or three handicapping beliefs - across each tense," Ferriss wrote. Then, take a look at each belief in depth and answer the following questions, as remembered by Ferriss:<ol><li>"What has each belief cost you in the past, and what has it cost people you've loved in the past? What have you lost because of this belief? See it, hear it, feel it."</li><li>"What is each costing you and people you care about in the present? See it, here it, feel it."</li><li>"What will each cost you and people you care about 1, 3, 5, and 10 years from now? See it, hear it, feel it."</li></ol><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"></div></div></div>After going through the pain of dwelling on your handicapping beliefs, Ferriss wrote, you then create new beliefs to replace them.Ferriss shared one of his responses: "One of my top three limiting beliefs was 'I'm not hardwired for happiness,' which I replaced with 'Happiness is my natural state.'"Ferriss said the exercise lasts about 30 minutes and leaves the majority of the audience emotional. He followed up with Robbins months after he attended the event to ask him why the Dickens Process was so effective."When we feel pain in one time zone - meaning past, present, or future - we just switch to another time zone rather than change, because change brings so much uncertainty and so much instability and so much fear to people," Robbins said. The exercise prevents you from escaping yourself.He wrote that in the year following the Dickens Process, "I've never felt consistently happier in my entire adult life.""It's incredible what can happen when you stop driving with the emergency brake on," he said.Ferriss visited Business Insider's New York office to discuss "Tools of Titans" and answer audience questions in a Facebook Live segment, which you can watch below.<div></div> <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/tools-of-titans-tim-ferriss-talks-single-tasking-super-power-derek-sivers-2016-12">'Don't be a donkey': Tim Ferriss shares why single-tasking can be a super power</a></h3> <div> <div> <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="JvaWo1ODE6F0i84ODxB1USib7DI9pf_k" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div> </div> </div> </div>

Amid looming uncertainties, <keyword id="541988" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="SnapDeal">Snapdeal</keyword> co-founders <keyword id="219793" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kunal-Bahl">Kunal Bahl</keyword> and <keyword id="396598" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rohit-Bansal">Rohit Bansal</keyword> sent out an e-mail to employees saying the current phase is an "inflection point" for the company. They also asked the teams to take tough decisions in its pursuit of profitability. 
 
Reportedly, the communication, from Bahl and Bansal, comes at a time when Snapdeal is downsizing and shutting its non-core businesses so as to conserve cash and extend its runway as fresh funding has been hard to come by. 
 
Recently, the company announced the closure of its consumer-to-consumer marketplace Shopo last week and now the e-tailer has now disbanded its SD Instant team. 
 Launched across Delhi, Mumbai and <keyword id="6354321" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bengaluru">Bengaluru</keyword> to deliver FMCG and daily essential goods, the service is now only operational in Gurgaon. 
 Snapdeal's cost-cutting drive has coincided with a string of senior level exits.

Maheshwari has left the company after a four-year stint, sources aware of the development told TOI. He joins other old-timers who have recently quit including Tony Navin, Sandeep Komaravelly and Abhishek Kumar
