In every meeting he shares important and ground-breaking lessons on serial investments. "How to find opportunities?" Kali asked Koko in one of the meetings. "Well, I'll tell you that but before that tell me, what are you doing now?" Koko asked. Kali not doing anything at all, so he was a bit shocked by Koko's question. "Nothing!" he exclaimed. Koko laughed, "Aren't you breathing?" he asked and continued "When you become conscious of your breathing, you understand everything happening around you. Opportunity is like oxygen - you have to start finding it unconsciously just as you breathe unconsciously."
