I've
struggled with seeing myself as an entrepreneur over the years for two main
reasons- Work Passion & Family. I've great passion towards the Job
which i perform and as like everyone i live for my family.
Even
though I graduated as a qualified Engineer it was really tough time for me to
adjust in sales job for over 3 years. After wasting huge money from my dad's
saving in the name of Technical courses which resulted in No Job - Time Waste -
Back to Home. No one knows how i passed through those days by not having
even a single penny to start my Journey again from a small village to Dream
Land Bangalore which makes me landed into a small sales Job to survive.
This was my difficult period of time. Still i'm in confusion that how I use to stand before a customer and greet for the long 10 hours of time in a store. Being an Engineer i only knew about Electronics & Telecommunications - But not to sell anything. It was mixed feelings and emotions for me to pass on for long 3 years. There was no day passed without my tears under blanket before sleep.
Everyone was getting settled in technical domain- my friends, my relative cousins. And this reason makes my dad hurt that I’m not getting job in Technical field. He downs his head before all those who ask - “What your son is doing now?”
Struggle
1:
Alright! Anyhow i managed very long time in an unfit job in the name of survival. After 2 years I got job offer from very reputed company from Gulf Overseas which made me to resign current Job. Happily i returned to my home and started waiting day by day for visa. Days passed - No update from Employer. After long time of 7 months i got mail that company cancelled my Job offer as they didn't able to recruit other single employee. I didn't argue with them. What all i can do is to return back Bangalore.
Struggle 2:
Back to Bangalore and Landed into Decent Sales Job. This time i got hired by an excellent company which taught me new corporate work culture. With this motivation i started working hard to improve myself and career. Wow ! I got extra ordinary salary increment that i didn't even expected. Life was going well and i was completely savings and taking care of my family. Everyone was happy for me.
Unfortunately i cheated my employer by starting a new company with 2 of my friends. Backstabbing- Biggest Mistake i regret for even today.
New company- New Life - Nil Money - No documents registered on my name. This was my situation. Still i was happily working by enhancing company operations and dreaming for a better life. Soon i realized that my partners and i was not great fit to proceed for future business relationships ( Many reasons - I can't explain). After 7 months, simply i quit. Again Struggle starts. Back to Home for 8 Months to come out from this shock..
Struggle 3:
Again i returned to Bangalore and struggled to get good salary Job. To survive i Joined a company which pays me half amount of salary compare to my previous company. Still i survived here too for long seven months.
After my graduation I've wasted almost 2 years of time in my Home with depression and suffer.
Fortunately this time i got a good person & partner to start my own Private Limited venture currently which i'm working on. This time i won't quit no matters what.
Conclusion:
Startups are a struggle. Entrepreneurship is a struggle. Struggling with your identity only makes you human. Commonly struggle leads to success.
Starting your own business will be interesting and
inspirational. In fact, usually the entrepreneur will be met with a struggle in
every possible way. Hard thing is personal relationship's gets broke into the
way of these struggles and financial loop's.
Running a company is not an easy thing. It takes dedication,
hard work, and sacrifice. But,
I believe that every struggle counts for me to reach my success.
Even
I’m struggling financially i won't give up. I will work - This is my
life. My passion is my way. My way is my Family! Jai Hind...
