Arise, Awake

The world is constantly changing, and businesses aren’t the exception.

In 2000, very few knew the word entrepreneurship o else what it actually meant. But the stories that Author Rashmi Bansal tells us in “Arise, Awake”, will definitely imprint that word in your head, and maybe give you the push you’ve been needing to finally start that idea of business.

The book explores the notion of what it takes to be an entrepreneur, something that is not limited by age or education. A heartening read that follows ideas to reality, dreams to established businesses, and simplicity to success.

Here are some lessons from the book:

1.???????If your first idea fails, don’t give up.

Most of the people would surrender and closed the business and wait for another summer perhaps. Well, that’s not what an actual entrepreneur would do.

If your first idea fails, just use what the main picture was and reinvent, because if your business started with the right foot then all it takes it’s an update.

Obstacles and setbacks in your initial plan can lead to better, more fulfilling projects if you persevere and stay aware.

2.???????Always think big, changes can turn out in a good way.

You might have a great business idea but keep in mind that not everyone would accept it as it is. Maybe you need to make some changes, for improvement or just because that whole idea doesn’t fit your future plans.

Just take every suggestion presently.

3.???????When you get a business idea, don’t let it go.

If you think you have got the next big thing on your hands, you need to get out there and put in the work. Take a chance. Trust yourself and your ideas.

You don’t even have to wait to get a degree or a meaningless job to consider opening your own business. You only need determination and constancy to get out there and start changing the world.

Don't wait for the opportunity. Go out there and create it yourself!
