‘What it means to be an Entrepreneur’ “Following your Passion may make you successful but Success will Surely make you Passionate. Introspect your personality type and pick up your working style as there is nothing called Try it... Either you do it or not do it . . . While at work see to it that your mistakes are seen by you only and rectified before the world shows it to you. Sharpen your axe. Invest in knowing and fine tuning yourself. Don’t be in a rush, Paint your picture and with Pure Perseverance and realise it by remaining comfortable in times of discomfort. “ "Your compass of Mindset and Skillset will define your success" "If you are ready to think of 'People - Planet - Profit and Politics' before self, you are meant to be an entrepreneur, as you are not only ready for your own success and but the success of all connected directly and indirectly with you."

population despite having a smaller population
than China, a UN report (2014)
 2020, India is set to become the world’s youngest
country with 64 per cent of its population in the
working age group.
 Economists believe this could add a significant 2
per cent to the GDP growth rate.

3. Catch the BUG
 A young workforce means having more
innovative minds. It also means we are able
to better leverage technology and increase
efficiency.
