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

I just wanted to share my feelings of how being an enterpreneur feels like...
Hope you all like it :)
Just a brief history
So I am out of Bschool.. and I decided to take entreprenurship instead of taking a job..
Doing a Job would have been a really difficult task for me..this I learnt in arnd 3 years of training in various course I did. I had an experience of doing business. My Father started his own at age of 45 and when I was 15..I do helped him and than I too started of my own after my PG degree..did it for three years and than get into MBA stuff:)
So I was planning to start up through my MBA college..you know its a different feeling to work for only fo yourself..u dont work actually u enjoy working..you dnt think for how many hours you have worked or you dnt feel tht u missed a cricket match:)
During this period there are times where I felt very down ...and my self belief has gone but really always it happened that I got a call frm 1 of my friend and it helped.
I will never ever forget the help (moral and help with ideas) that my fiends have given me even when they are so busy with their lives..
I just plan to carry on this series and go more deeper into practical reality and update it as soon it is possible for me.. and if I can help any aspiring enterpreneur through this..it will be great..
Today I am going to look for 2 places for the office lets see how it goes :)
Hope you all like it :)
