My Entrepreneurial Journey ,[object Object],Where would you go when you have no way back?

There is always another way ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

[object Object],Make every cent count but you cannot afford to lose. If it sounds too cheap, looks too cheap, it is cheap. Outsource intelligently. The greatest assets a startup has is in its spirit and its people.

Paralyzed by over-analyzed ,[object Object],makes the journey all the more worth it. If you see a problem, fix it… don’t assemble a committee to decide what your common sense can see. Reading tons of books on business does not make you an entrepreneur.

Do unto others… ,[object Object],that it produces a product or service it serves, both clients and community. If you don’t have integrity, you have absolutely nothing built to last. that improves the lives of the people

Think Big! ,[object Object],what you know you can do, Rather, think of what you never have dreamt possible, believe and achieve. While others benchmark themselves, aim to be the benchmark.

New Beginnings ,[object Object],Why would you want to walk along a path yet unknown?

Your idea is NOT unique ,[object Object],that the competition doesn’t, it does not make you a winner. Vending umbrellas + Ads isn’t a USP. Blindly running in a contrary direction while amusing, is also not a strategy.

The Team is Key ,[object Object],It is better to be on the battlefields of business, fighting alongside your comrades than sitting back at the air-conditioned command center making hypocritical comments.

Invest in your own firm ,[object Object],your money where your mouth is, don’t expect anyone else to do so. Stop looking for free handouts, start looking for a market, build on revenue and the rest will follow

Work with us ,[object Object],is to quit talking/reading/thinking and start doing. We VC have a role to play, not just in giving out cash. When you figured it out, that is when our relationship begins.

Take Action! ,[object Object],and many great executioners are without ideas. One without the other is worthless. If you are to do something, do it spectacularly or don’t do it at all.

In conclusion… ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
