Hitherto journey and some aspects of professional life
The journey has been good for the most parts due to the wonderful circle of friends and relatives transforming Dreams into Action.
Being an entrepreneur is a tough job experiencing ups and downs, both daily and over time. My daily routine is not very defined. It starts with morning exercise and a cup of coffee. After reaching the office, I complete my tasks and leave office by 7 pm. My day ends at 11 pm. I am an adventurous person, for me, it is simply getting out of the comfort zone. I want to visit Manasarovar, Italy-Rome, Venice, Great Pyramid of Giza, and Egypt at some point in life.
A piece of advice for the budding entrepreneurs
Being patient in exasperating situations and understand that building an enterprise can be a long process. Whether profit or non-profit, you need a strong business model. You have to understand your market, your competitors and your product. It is also important to work in on the areas of the operation that you are best suited to and enjoy the most. If you love your role, you will find that you will be less tempted to procrastinate.
