Changing Times



Times have changed. The requirement of a 10 to 6 job or a business to run sitting in an office the whole day doesn’t feel completely unnecessary.
As a young graduate or a post graduate pass out youth aspires to have his own company or do projects and work from his comfort zone.  They dream of starting their companies or personally owned ventures.  One of things which I have noticed is when they do that the family and people around them take them for granted as someone who would be available anytime whenever they require.  Instead of a support system there are extra responsibilities put up on him. It can be as simple as bringing vegetables or dropping to the temple or drive someone to some place.
Question here is would you be asking your children to do the same if they were going for a job?

The resultant product coming out of this is students going abroad or taking up jobs in some companies or leaving their homes for some different city. For girls, they also try taking some of these options because parents are running after them to get them married.

Now, because of more students waiting for recruitments, more people are unemployed.
Why wait for a job when you have enough capability of starting your own small business venture?
Its not hard, talk to your parents, friends and relatives – pool in some money- start something small – show results – get confidence- take it to the next level!
Your venture can be the next Pepsi, Coca Cola, Vodafone or Facebook !
Why wait for a job?
If you are passing out from IIMs, IITs or other good universities from your city and if you wait for a company to come to you, I would say- it is ridiculous!
I am especially considering Indian demographics because opportunities are plenty in almost every corner around you and it is as simple as what I shared yesterday about shoe laundry

Ideas. Think of ideas. Stop Waiting!
