By starting young, you get lot of time to experiment and you have less liabilities to worry about.</p> <p>When I saw this interview, I was 35 and I was thinking about starting my company. And this led me to deeply introspect my thoughts about starting a company. I started answering these questions one by one and these answers moved me closer to my decision.</p> <p>Here are some of the fundamental questions each aspiring entrepreneur should ask themselves before starting this journey –</p> <ol> <li>Do you have the skill you can sell and earn money?</li> <li>Do you have enough savings in your bank or other earning member in your family? Even if you have few paying clients already, remember they can leave you any time.</li> <li>Do you have the patience to deal with all sorts of people? Once you are on your own, you will be dealing with people from varied backgrounds.</li> <li>Do you really feel you are ready for all this? This is the most important one. If you feel the calling from inside, you should most likely get started.</li> </ol> <p>I feel it is easy to start a company when you have gathered enough experience and skill and you remain energetic and passionate about your work. Life is not a race. It is a journey and it has to be enjoyed. Starting your own start-up should not be stressful. Rather it should be the best thing that has happened to you. Plan your days ahead and take one step at a time. It takes a lot of courage to persist in this game but once you taste the success, you will never look back.</p> Sun, 26 Dec 2021 12:00:00 +0530 2021-12-26T12:00:00+05:30
