Connect The Dots

by Rashmi Bansal

ADVICE TO YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS I have one simple advice: There is no shortcut in life, go for details. For any big achievement you need patience and devotion. If you understand what you are doing and plan it in detail, you will definitely be successful. But these days I see most people don’t want to get into details… they don’t want to work at the micro level. They want shortcuts. If you take the shortcut you cannot achieve major goals or a big vision. When you start something new, initially resistance will be high. Like in our case, middlemen did not want us to go to villages and train farmers. But then we won over the resistors and made them our partners. If you study Bihar society closely you will see that when someone does something new, people first laugh at him. If you persist, they will criticise you. But when they see you are undeterred - and you are succeeding - aapke saath aakar khade ho jayenge aur apke success mein apne yogadan ki charcha karenge. So focus on your project, your mission - not what people will say. Lead the way and others will follow!
