Mantras for Business Success

6  MANTRAS for SUCCESS in BUSINESS

1. Get your head in the game: As the leader of your company, you need to portray a winning state of mind and radiate positive energy. This is relatively easy to preach, but in live interactions, meetings and events, there’s no substitute for having your game face on. A good attitude is transmittable and inspires others. If you need to fake it until you make it, so be it. 

2. Narrow your objectives: Most of the entrepreneurs are constantly distracted by the newest shiny things. By nature, entrepreneurs seem to be idea people, so you’re good at identifying opportunities and finding ways to take advantage of them. That means it’s equally important to figure out which opportunities are irrelevant, and to ignore them completely. Pick up every shiny thing and you've got a collector’s nest, not a successful company. 

3. Steady your reactions: Steady as it goes. This is always of the most priority for essential entrepreneurial qualities. Passion, fire, and drive are at the core of many entrepreneurs. We all need those things. But it can be easy to let these attributes excessively influence your reactions to day-to-day events. Abrupt reactions and decisions that aren't well thought-out don’t do you or your company any good. To prevent them, try to plan proactively and keep the big picture in mind. 

4. Know and stick to your moral compass: It's easy to get influenced by great opportunities or quick fixes. Set yourself and your company up for success by knowing your boundaries. What are you willing to do to achieve your objectives, and where do you draw the line? This is one area where going outside of your comfort zone will do nothing but get you in hot water. 

5. Perception is King: Your reputation is here to stay. Protect your personal reputation and brand, as well as that of your company, by building an image that's meant to last.  

6. Get your fight on:  The best athlete doesn't always win. The one with the most fight and determination always wins out. Someone else may be bigger, faster, or temporarily ahead of the pack, but you will come out on top if you fight smart and stick it out. 

Need some more inspiration? Dream big. Be disruptive. Color outside the lines. Decide what these phrases mean to you, or create some of your own mantras that will keep your compass pointing north.

New Initiatives for Student Entrepreneurs

Startup Village’s milestone achievement of securing 1,000 applications in 15 months took on added shine on Independence Day this year as the State Government announced the rollout of its flagship Student Entrepreneurship Policy to schools in the second phase. Chief Minister Oommen Chandy in his Independence Day speech cited the example of Startup Village, India’s first telecom technology business incubator, as a testament to the success of the policy which was announced by the State Government at the Emerging Kerala Global Connect in September last year and offered a number of incentives for college students wanting to set up business startups. In its second phase, the Student Entrepreneurship Policy, which is designed to encourage innovations by youngsters, will be extended to school going students.

Around 10,000 bright school students from classes VIII to XII will be chosen through an online examination and provided computers and other learning material to improve their technology skills as part of the new project. “Young people are going to provide the strength for Kerala’s forward march, and our duty is to provide them with the opportunities here at home,” the Chief Minister said. “It is very clear that employment and growth opportunities around the world in the next 50 years are going to be based on technology,” he said. He declared that September 12, the anniversary of the Emerging Kerala meet, would be celebrated in the state as Entrepreneurship Day.
