The Gurkha Mindset distils the wisdom and experiences of a seasoned Gurkha soldier into ten powerful lessons for life and leadership.

Drawing from over two decades of service in the British Army, including five tours in Afghanistan and deployments in Bosnia and Sierra Leone, Captain Kailash Limbu shares the core principles that have shaped his journey as a soldier and a man. Through the metaphor of the khukuri, a symbolic and essential tool for every Gurkha, he illustrates how mindset and behaviour are crucial to overcoming challenges, achieving success and leading with honour.

Kailash reveals how the disciplined and courageous mindset of the Gurkhas can be applied to everyday life, helping readers manage emotions, foster teamwork, lead effectively and prioritise self-care. Each lesson is rooted in the simplicity and strength of the Gurkha way of life, offering practical insights that are both timeless and adaptable to any context.

Whether you seek to enhance your personal life, advance in your career or simply find greater fulfilment, The Gurkha Mindset provides the tools to sharpen your focus, build resilience and embrace life's challenges with a warrior's spirit.
