Sitting beside the office table, taking a sip of coffee and working on a deadline, you might wonder sometimes whether I can be an entrepreneur. Whether I can build a thousand crore business? Whether I can also feature on big social platforms? Or whether I can also service my clients in my own name?
If you have these thoughts, then you are correct. Yes, you can be an entrepreneur. However, how to choose a field, how to start and how to sustain are the most logical questions and then may be stopping you from achieving your dream. So, let us try to find answer to your questions in simplest ways:
- For choosing the field/industry for the new business, always start with the work that you already know such as your job field. Putting your hands at a new work merely out of passion may give you financial troubles. So, always start with what you already know and then slowly expand the dimensions.
- Attend as many webinars and seminars as possible. You need not attend only the paid ones, rather you can just join the free sessions in order to get idea. This activity has to be done for at least 2 months before starting. For example – if you want to practice full time as a doctor, then do attend the seminars conducted by various medical institutes. It will give you brief idea of current expectations of the society and will also add on to your network.
- Although this may not be liked by your employer immediately, but you must first start it as a side business and once the same prospers, then only leave the job and start it full time. It will require a lot of hard and smart work because you will have to work beyond your job hours but it will be worth the efforts.
- If you really wish to quit the job and start afresh, then first find additional source of income such as through teaching. It will act as back up in tough times.
So, you can always plan and then act. This is the essence of taking right steps in right direction.
