Why Entrepreneurship
&
not the Placements?
Don’t try if you don’t have guts
Who is an Entrepreneur?
Endless list who changed the world today we see as……
Someone who organizes a business
venture and assumes the risk for it.
In 2010, it was estimated that Steve Jobs
net worth was $8.3 billion.
He suffers from red-green colorblindness
that’s why Facebook is Blue !!
Binny Bansal Was rejected twice by
Google & then he started his own.
Key Personal Attributes of entrepreneurs
–
• Need for Achievement
• Desire for Independence
• Self-Confidence
• Self-Sacrifice
Entrepreneurs are Made, Not Born!
Entrepreneurs are people that notice
opportunities and take the initiative to
mobilize resources to make
new goods and services.
Who are
Intrapreneurs?
•Intrapreneurs notice opportunities and take
initiative to mobilize resources, however
they work in large companies and
contribute to the innovation of the firm.
We all want to be Intrapreneur but
no one want to be an Entrepreneur.
Why ??
Few Reasons, I tried to find –
• Family Pressure
• Financial security of future
• Lack of Guidance & Mentorship
• Low confidence
• Less sacrifice tendency
• Reluctance to take responsibility
• And a lot more……..
both brilliant
+
both contributed
so much to science
Tesla died broke Edison died rich
and what of those
with better ideas
but without
resources
who weren’t heard
at all?
So say no to Placements if you have an idea that can
make human life better.
Yeah I am Damn serious!!!
Let me show you some stats and you’ll
start believing me -
• In companies with less than 50 employees, 44% were satisfied.
• In companies with 50-999 employees, 31% are satisfied.
• Business with more than 1000, only 28% are satisfied.

Some Advice for Entrepreneurs:
This is the part where I get seriously
unpopular.
Hey CEO’s!
Your ONLY job is to keep the company going
until you find product/market fit.
Your ONLY job.*
* Okay, that AND 10 gabillion other things. But this is the most important.
the key to #winning:
find your product/market fit before you
run out of money.
#THAT. IS. ALL.
Startup founders look a LOT like
themselves (and can come from ANY
background). looking for patterns is the
antithesis of innovative thinking.
Fact at the end you’ll realize:
YOU build the goddamned future.
“The best way to predict the future is to invent it.”

hundred!!!!
And then
$4 billion valuation in July 2011.
but here I am. and I can’t imagine doing
ANYTHING else. it’s an unhealthy, but
beautifully necessary obsession.
because without us crazy, delusional
people who do this the world would be a
boring, stagnant place.
Are you ready to make the
ultimate sacrifice?
thank you for
being
crazy.
