Do what you like to do

Continuous Learning and Resilience

I would like to share the following advice with young women aspiring to be entrepreneurs or already navigating the entrepreneurial journey:

Embrace Your Unique Perspective: Encourage young women to embrace their unique perspectives and strengths. Diversity is a strength in entrepreneurship, and women bring valuable insights to the table. Continuous Learning: Stress the importance of continuous learning. The business landscape evolves rapidly, and staying informed about industry trends, technologies, and market dynamics is crucial.

Build a Support Network: Advise them to build a strong support network. Entrepreneurship can be challenging, and having mentors, advisors, and a community of fellow entrepreneurs can provide guidance and motivation. Resilience is Key: Emphasize the need for resilience. Entrepreneurship is often marked by ups and downs. Learning to navigate setbacks with resilience is a vital skill. Don't Fear Failure: Communicate that failure is a part of the entrepreneurial journey. It's an opportunity to learn, pivot, and grow stronger. Encourage them not to fear failure but to see it as a stepping stone to success.

Find Your Passion: Urge them to identify and pursue their passion. Building a business around something they are passionate about not only fuels motivation but can also lead to more meaningful and sustainable ventures. Balancing Act: Acknowledge the challenges of balancing work and personal life. Encourage them to find a balance that works for them and to prioritize self-care. Negotiation Skills: Highlight the importance of negotiation skills. Whether it's securing partnerships, dealing with clients, or raising funds, effective negotiation is a valuable skill for an entrepreneur.

Seek Feedback: Stress the importance of seeking and embracing feedback. Constructive feedback is a powerful tool for improvement and growth. Stay True to Values: Remind them to stay true to their values. Building a business aligned with one's values contributes to long-term satisfaction and success.

Purpose-Driven Entrepreneurship

For women who are either aspiring entrepreneurs or already navigating the challenging path of business ownership and motherhood, I have some advice to share. While it may sound cliché, I firmly believe it all boils down to purpose. Having a compelling and deeply meaningful purpose driving the growth of your business is what will enable you to tackle the inevitable challenges and turbulence of balancing entrepreneurship and motherhood. Furthermore, if you have a partner, it's crucial to approach this journey with gentleness and understanding as you both figure out how to navigate it together. This renegotiation of roles is new for everyone involved, and it's important not to compare your partner to others'. Each family has its own set of needs, skills, and resources, which should dictate the way you make it work. In other words, achieving the ideal of "having it all" often means throwing out the rule book and crafting your own. It's not an easy path, and it will require a great deal of patience. Lastly, I want to emphasize that there is nothing inherently superior or righteous about entrepreneurship. It's essential to be open to the possibility that you may not be or may not want to be an entrepreneur. Only by considering this alternative can you truly understand how deeply your desire for it runs. The path you choose should align with your passion and purpose, whether that leads you to entrepreneurship or another fulfilling endeavour.

Confidence and Vision

Be confident and futuristic.

Passion and Continuous Growth

If you love something, then just go for it. Believe in it and take charge. Never aim for success as your goal because once you trust in yourself and do what you love with complete passion, the dreams are yours! Just keep working on your goals, focus and succeed with every goal. It can be in the form of growth or learnings, win or loss but it’s success every time because you have given it your best efforts.

Success is a constant journey and not a one-time goal, where how you rise others along with you defines your own net worth. Dig, Dive, Devote. Learn, Fall, Getup. Breathe, Enjoy, Love. Give, Forgive, Grateful. Have Faith in the power of karmas, believe in divine, balance every aspect in life and live in present.

Faith and Ignore Criticism

I would like to tell that you should have faith in yourself that at any age you can be an entrepreneur. There are people who will tell bad about you but you should ignore them and move ahead towards your goal.

Do Your Best

I always follow one motto in life which is "Do your best and leave the rest".. There going to be many people out there who will not encourage you but its you who needs to decide what you wish to do in your life.

When you do your best, you do not need to worry about the results also because you are going to get success that is for sure.
