Very interesting writeup!!!!!
But it's Harsh to comment on india's
so called traditional houses.......
I belive that our growth depend's on us
& not on any gov. or biz. house.It is we who shape our companies not anyone else.........
Read ur article for d first time ever, am not a follower of ur writtings as some friends here seem to be, but yes can FEEL D TRUTH IN D LAST BIT, bout being born without money n dying d same way, but d purpose of it all the EXPERIENCE.. thts life.. Cheers to that!
well when i saw this mug of yours in a tech only article outlook, i am a biggest don't throw trash and store raddi, dunno when you need it,
i knew murthy garu is my kind of man
humble down to earth and totally human,
finally when i delved deeper into your profile and found kendriya vidyalaya picket secunderabad.. i knew, well this guy has it in him,
only then i started commenting my blogs on your page, and you dont know ever since i am commenting on your status my fame has grown on the fb :))
coming back to the article mahesh
there is no point on which i disagree with you on touche !!!
you have hit the "BULLS EYE" that's gut feelings of a true born entrepreneur, comes from within no MBA institute can give it to anyone.. only they can enhance it.
Indian market, low investment, and use of technology are also my style, and so is no funding, but own source, and slogging and earning by sweating it out.
Well done my pal
you dont worry,
you can never go hungry
I am sure about that
all ze best
Well written, Mahesh. However, I do have another take on this. In India, regional cultures influence family values tremendously. In the Western States of Gujarat and Rajasthan, where the culture of entrepreneurship is strongly rooted since generations, "working for someone" or "Naukari/Service" is looked down upon and it is usually a challenge for a youngster to reject being a "businessman' or "trader". In the new liberalized economy, this has changed. Being a professional is now looked upon favourably even in these "bania" communities and fetches an equal "marriage equity". Clearly, the old, estabished order is changing across the country and that can only mean good news for entreprenuers, "businessfolks" and professionals alike, all of whom will have a wider canvas to work with. 2019 will indeed be a whole new equation.
Interesting read...as always.
Know what, here's my observation. Coming from a Malayalee family, I too was 'reared' to take up a 'good job'. However, got hooked to a Gujarati guy...n it was a culture shock! Dont work for others...funda was..if you have the urge...start something on your own...hold an art exhibition...or run your own business setup...or be a consultant. Be your own master. Surprisingly even the uneducated ran successful business enterprises like making papads, providing tiffin services. Most of them never got listed in the stock market but were successful in their own right. They were happy making more monies than they would have got as employees. Masters to their own self... So in India...you will observe, communities and their individual values shape the mind of the man from that particular community. Business acumen is ingrained in people from some communities...I have seen this close hand. My dad or brother would never ever take the type of risks my husband takes without batting an eyelid....but yes....change is inevitable...and that’s the reason we will see a different India in 2010...
Whew! finally. Refreshing to see this article. In our own bumbling way we've followed a path similar to that outlined in your 10 tips - probably give ourselves about 6-7 out of 10. Good to see these spelled out - provides a nice framework.
Miss your articles very much. Love to read your morale booster but down to earth advices which can only come from a person who has really done it himself.
a great and inspiring article again. i still have your complete video when you came to our college...NITK Surathkal..!! tats 1 thing i hv kept all this time with me :) someday i will really do something...i know :D
