Entrepreneurial Thoughts



Entrepreneur should never do!
1. Thou shall not start a company just because you read Steve Jobs’ biography.
 2. Thou shall not start an event management company or a cafe and call yourself an entrepreneur.
 3. Thou shall not start a company and put your picture on your website with CEO written below.
 4. Thou shall not put “entrepreneur” as work info on your profile. Entrepreneur is not a profession.
 5. Thou shall never dream of starting a company. Thou shall only act.
 6. Thou shall never start a company to impress girls. Also thou shall never impress girls by telling them you’re an “entrepreneur”
 7. Ok maybe the above point can be ignored.
 8. Thou shall not constantly meet up with friends over drinks and say “dude lets start something of our own” and forget about it the next day.
 9. Thou shall only thing big. Always.
 10. Thou shall never posts notes like these.

10 things for a first time entrepreneur!

Don’t be an entrepreneur just for the heck of it. There’s no point in getting into a business that everyone else is already doing. Like the the guy who wanted to get into the soft drink business but then he invented the straw.
Don’t just start a company. Start a whole new industry. Remember Post-Its.
Never give up. The guy who started Victora’s Secret sold his company and jumped off a bridge before it became Victoria’s secret.
Don’t be afraid. Ron Wayne was so afraid of starting a new company that he backed out of his partnership contract. He is now living on his pension. Oh I forgot to mention, the contract was for Apple Inc.
Good artists copy, great artist steal. The entire Macintosh idea was stolen from Xerox. and then Microsoft copied it from Apple.
Sell yourself shamelessly. Branson is probably more popular than his own company – Virgin.
Be creative .Very creative. There’s this guy who took a circle, put a price tag on it, patented it and made billions. It was called the hoolahoop.
Dont wait for Jobs. Zuckeberg, Gates we’re all billionaires before they were 25. You dont wanna wait to be 35, with a wife and 2 kids and then start a company.
Improvise and move along with the times. Nokia started as a rubber product company. Apple now makes phones. And Microsoft, they’ll probably be getting into home appliances soon.
 Print your business card with a dummy company name and CEO written below. Distribute this among all your friends. After 6 months you better start your company or you’ll be the laughing stock of the entire town. Micheal Dell did this when he was 16. One of you reading this must be probably working for him.
 “Most ideas fizzle out because everyone spends hours just thinking about them and not doing anything.”
Everyone of you is a born genius; you just need to recognize your God gifted potentials. Never Copy Others! Just take inspiration & their qualities!
You are unique, just Look into your strength, get inspired by some qualities of great people and work on it with all dedications & determinations and the success will all be yours…
And finally, Never ever miss to the opportunity to Learn. Age Doesn’t Matter…You can learn something new even from a boy studying in 5th grade! Always accept the opportunities of those kinds.
