A new starting

In the morning when I woke up I found sth unusual, no sunshine nthng at all..only fog fog n fog..and I tht why should I not go up and click some fog Pics.When I went up I realised It was worth while coming 2 storeys..I cudnt see the trees at garden just across 40 feets(15 mtrs approx) than I tried some pics with my mobile camera ( damn for this moment I think people buys slr and stuff). Overall It was great. I message few friend in case they were missing this.
I was not going to write this in a blog, nthng specific just the thought didnt cross my mind.. I guess in facebook we have found a better alternative.. But an anonymous post email encouraged me in writing this one..Thnk you Mr/Ms. Anonymous

I just felt I have to write..I am avoiding this for its like 3 months I have not written it..Life has changed..I have my office opened..n as nyone can imagine it wasnt a perfect strt.. MY life iss getting complicated with so many things to think about..

Nowdays I feel myself looking down the road, like whether I am doing is rght..whether the struggle I chose is worth it..whether I wud come out of it alright..and suddenly I shirk away these thought and think atleast I am in a struggle because I wanted it n nt anyone else..I am in difficulty but at least path is mine..

These thought war which I call them are getting more n more pronounced as time goes on..I guess I had my share of success and nw its time i also get a tough ride..
will hold on till I dont fall..will hold on till i dont fall..

The Office

Last time when I stopped I had the place and I had to turn it into an office..and it took me arnd 15 days to do so..hve been a little slow..but yeah again learnt a quite a bit in these days..specifically abt the hard work ;-)..
Designing, mediating, media, decision making..hmm wht not have I done in these few days..
Just an incident of multitasking..I was sitting with my friend and was working on Board designs and was on Gtalk with two others disussing abt pamphlet content and giving another an update on wht is going on..n nthr frnd calls up n reminds me tht I had to send him some mail..tht looks exciting but..

SO do u need to multitask.. I think its totally depends on you.. if u r quick decision maker,if you have prepare yourself well and believe in yourself u normally wud.
Why I am telling you all this..
Prepare yourself well in the morning abt wht u are going to do in day..( it helps as uncertainity always strikes whn u r certain it wudnt :)

Dnt have an attitude of postponing things..it Costs dearly..

What ever happens dnt stop believing yourself :)

So the office is up with all partitions, furnitures, boards.. pamphlets, visiting card, LH's are in printing..Hmm its coming n I m getting scary..
So Monday is the day I am waiting for the day when the office opens after a small marketing campaign of pamphlets..with boards up on the office..m waiting..

Self empoyment

the work starts now..its fun to be all by yourself and take decisions all by yours..loving it

This is what I have been feeling for sometime now. As Andy told that we hear successful stories of entrepreneurship not the process I will try and elaborate on the process with my limited writing capabilities.
As I write now, my Landlord has delayed the work by 5 days but this happens..

So I stopped my last blog where I was going to find the place and talk to the landlord. Believe me when we go to the ground level the negotiation begins the most useful art to possess. I am not really good at it but I have learnt it after talking to innumerable guys about innumerable thing.
Some points I learnt

1. be clear about what you going to lose from the deal. Sometime it Just could be time but better is to monetize the time.
I did lose a month or more and a great publicity time by a single mistake of mine and some lethargy in April.

2. Know what you want and get it written as mind falters at the wrong times :P

SO keep these basic points in mind before negotiating..and believe me the other person is indefinitely a better negotiator than you when you are starting :-)

Now after gyan I come to the point ;-)

I got the place finally and really now I think April was not a mistake ( when you try and achieve your destiny whole world helps you) so I got a gr8 place at gr8 location and gr8 rent

Now after the place its about the launch which we are preparing ( we because their are so many friends who are helping me and they really are taking their time out from their work fom me.. I am really thankful to all of you guys)SO its all about the office layout, furniture, marketing, finance, operations and any function you can think of in life.
I have learnt so much in these few days.. believe me if an entrepreneur someday comes for a job to you( hope it never happens) Just give him a job. he will really prove to be an asset for your company.

One important thing before you decide to into entrepreneurship.

Make a B Plan specifically a financial plan and than make a 30% addition in time and money as u never know the reality( Am really struggling)

Hope you had a good reading. Please comment if you by chance read this and comment so that I can improve..as I really want that some one starting gets a little help from this
