Statistics don’t lie: an estimate of 50% to 70% of startups fail within the first 18 months. No matter how many advanced degrees you hold or how much industry experience you have, starting your own business can feel like you’re dodging one disaster after another. Some of these obstacles can be frustrating even though they are a part of the learning curve, but what if you could avoid them? Recently we spoke to a well-known, successful entrepreneur – Anoop Bishnoi , and asked him for some advice on common mistakes that new entrepreneurs should be weary off,  to improve their chances of success; here’s what he said, “The first and foremost thing that you should be doing is to ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing and if you have a clear purpose or not… if you know the answer, you’ll keep moving forward no matter what.” Businesses without plans have a hard time succeeding, is there any strategy to have a solid business plan? Anoop adds, “.. There surely is, just some basic ques

Launching a business? The plan may sound enticing, but don’t you forget – Business always tests you! Success stories are motivating, but in reality, the road is a lot bumpier than it seems. And the most powerful asset throughout this journey will be your mental strength. Anyone can start a business but not everyone has the mental muscle to become outstanding; to face determined competitors and overcome customers’ resistance to change. Recently, we interviewed Anoop Bishnoi , a successful entrepreneur, and a great mentor, to talk about mental toughness and how to build it, here’s what he has to say, “…mental strength isn’t something that can be learned, it’s an approach to life which needs control, confidence, and commitment. To train your mind to become tougher, the first thing you need to do is to alter negative reactions to reasoning and finding solutions, start looking for opportunities and positives in bad news.” No doubt that it sounds like a great approach to cope with any gi

If you’ve been pushing yourself a little too much these days, while setting aside your well-being, then this read is especially for you!

Lower risk of burnout, less stress, and enhanced productivity. If you’re wondering how to get there then we have some good news for you! We recently spoke to a well-known entrepreneur who is not only extremely driven in regards to his professional goals but also equally prioritizes his personal life and passions - Anoop Bishnoi.
