Are Entrepreneurs Crazy?
“Overnight
success is an exception, not a rule. Successful people planted seeds, watered
the seeds, and saw the seeds growing into plants and trees. Therefore, make the
right choices every day. Stay on your game. Keep going for your dreams.”
―Professor M.S. Rao
Entrepreneurs
have an urge to succeed. They have the drive and ambition. They strongly
believe in their dreams. They don't listen to naysayers. They are often treated
as crazy. The entrepreneurs including Elon Musk and Jack Ma succeeded against
all odds. They succeeded because they are crazy. Critics often think that they
are stupid. Critics are the ordinary people while the entrepreneurs are the
extraordinary people. Entrepreneurs treat crazy as a compliment, not as a criticism.
They pursue their ideas when there seemed to be no light at the end of the
tunnel. They convert their vision into a reality. They hustle every day. People
often don’t see their hard work. They see only their success.
Entrepreneurs
don’t look for excuses. They explore ideas for resolving issues. Therefore, be
well-rounded and be well-grounded to become a successful entrepreneur. Don’t
lose faith. Remember, entrepreneurship is for the brave-hearted, not for the
fainthearted.

Experiment Your Ideas like Elon Musk to Excel as an Entrepreneur
“Failures
and rejections are an integral part of life. I failed many times. I fail every
day. Yet, I explore new things because I enjoy the process of exploring and
experimenting. I was rejected many times. For instance, Harvard University has
rejected my application for a postdoctoral course in the year 2016. Therefore,
learn lessons from your failures. Never give up.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
I
have seen a few entrepreneurs challenging the established giants with an idea
and technology. They are leveraging technology to achieve success and make a
difference in the lives of others.
Entrepreneurs
must explore ideas and test them. They must learn lessons from failures and
move on with valuable takeaways. When you look at Elon Musk, his entrepreneurial
journey is not straight. His entrepreneurial graph is less of peaks and more of
valleys. His first three launches failed, but he learned lessons and moved on. Currently,
he is the richest person in the world.
Anything
can change at any time. You must have an idea, take risks, experiment, and
explore. Above all, be persistent.
Takeaway:
Be a risk-taker. Don't fear failures. Be persistent.
“Persistence
is very important. You should not give up unless you are forced to give up.”
—Elon Musk

Is Social Media a Necessary Evil?
There is a debate about whether social media is good
or bad. Social media is a double-edged sword. You must know how to use it
effectively. Social media is a currency currently. You can showcase your
talents, skills, and abilities. You can get lots of opportunities including
employment and explore entrepreneurship. You can share your knowledge and add
value to others. you can build your brand. You can explore opportunities
globally. It is cost-effective and quick to reach out to others. However, it
kills your time and distracts you from your goals and objectives if you are
addicted to it.
If you take alcohol moderately, it is good. If you
take alcohol excessively, you become an alcoholic. Similarly, use social media
moderately, not excessively to avoid becoming an addict. Social media was a
boon during the coronavirus spreading awareness, connecting people globally, and
bringing them into one platform.
Once watching television was condemnable. Now
children are glued to smartphones. We cannot stop it. But we must take
appropriate precautions to use them wisely.
We cannot do away with social media. We must adapt
as per the changing times and technologies. Throwing social media is like throwing
the baby out with the bathwater. You have to draw a thin line and fine line
somewhere with the usage of social media.
Don’t get addicted to social media. Use it
judiciously. Use it for educational and marketing purposes. Harness it wisely.
Fix some specific time for it every day and follow it religiously. Don't get
distracted from your goals. To conclude, treat social media as an ally, not an
enemy.
