Avoidable Mistakes as an Entrepreneur – Anoop Bishnoi

-

We are all aware that the year 2020 presented the world with several entrepreneurial challenges. You’ve probably read a lot of articles about what you need to do if you want to be a successful entrepreneur. For this article we reached out to one of the most hardworking and well-experienced entrepreneurs we know, Anoop Bishnoi, and asked him to tell us about the most common mistakes one makes as a business owner, so you can avoid and learn from them when you start your own businesses.


Here's what Anoop said, “Too many businesses usually start unplanned, and as the saying goes... Failing to plan is essentially planning to fail. The key is to organize, so map out a basic plan even if it’s just a page long. Always keep in mind that you are not alone, analyze the market and determine who your competitors are. It is critical to have a customer-first mindset when one is developing their product and determining their business model. The best that you can do to sustain your business in the long run, is to satisfy your customers and clients. Mistakes are a part of the process, so never be afraid to fail. The biggest mistake you can make is to allow other people's fears, doubts, and negativity to turn into your own self-doubt. Success is driven by passion, so never forget your passion and never stop learning. As an organization, the hunger for learning something new should always be there and as a leader, you should ensure that everyone in your company is evolving and adapting.”

Indeed, mistakes are simply opportunities for growth and learning but it’s also true that you’re one step closer to knowing what to do and how to do it, if you know what not to do! It’s better to set realistic goals and seek help whenever it’s needed, and whatever happens, don’t ever give up.

While the number of illiterate youth has decreased from 170 million to 115 million, nonetheless, the gender gap in literacy rates has remained relatively stable. For example, India has a significant gender disparity. Approximately 75% of Indian men have at least a basic level of literacy, while 51% of Indian women are literate. Some of the findings of a survey conducted among teachers, parents, and students to understand their perceptions and attitudes towards gender in the education space were as follows: most parents believe that nurturing and caring for children are basic responsibilities of women. Most parents believe that women tolerate violence for the sake of the family, and they point to symbols of sacrifice and compassion as evidence. According to 34% of parents, the main cause of sexual abuse is girls’ behavior and sartorial style. Around 40% of teachers also stated that they assign decoration tasks to girls and tangible physical tasks to boys. To address a deeply embedded

Does CUET reduce Students’ pressure-A Bane or Beacon for Students

Last year, the Union government announced that all admissions to Central Universities for undergraduate courses would be decided by a Common University Entrance Test (CUET). The CUET’s goals are admirable, and it is likely that this will change the education landscape in a few years. After all, unreasonable high school cutoffs are a legitimate concern, and the CUET may, in the long run, level the playing field for students across the country. However, there are more arguments against the common entrance exam than for it. The concept of bringing uniformity to the admissions process via a centralized exam is not novel. In 2010, the Central University CET was used for admission to 1,500 seats in seven new Central universities. By 2020, the entrance examination had grown to include 14 new central universities and four state universities. The real question here is whether the Common Entrance Test is more discriminatory than the previous method of admitting students based on their performanc

Children today are safer than ever before in a variety of ways. Better public safety, less “stranger danger,” and more logic however the twenty-first century brings new challenges to child safety, particularly when considering the digital environment. Children are voracious consumers of digital technologies. Despite all of the opportunities provided by the digital world, such as playing, learning, and socializing, digital engagement poses risks to children’s safety that can have real-world consequences. Many risks in the digital world are analogous to those in the physical world. Bullies can reach their victims online just as easily as they can in the schoolyard. Children can be exposed to hate speech and racism through the virtual games they play, videos they watch, and communication apps they use. Some risks, however, are more specific to the digital environment, such as sending or receiving sexually explicit messages online, or the use and misuse of children’s data. Pop-ups in app
