From Tech Executive to an Entrepreneur: My Transformational Journey!

Business on Autopilot

My journey has been a roller-coaster.

I was introverted and loner growing up. I left home at 11 because there was no school beyond 5th grade, where my father worked. That was the start of my life of struggles, that made me determined early on. My first exposure to entrepreneurship came when I was in high school at my uncle's flour mill in a small town.

I was burned early on in my career in India. The first startup failed. The multinational I joined later sent me on foreign assignments so often. I worked hard to take up US based job.

When I moved to the US, I thought my life had transformed, but I faced a new array of challenges related to Workplace visibility, financial insecurity, and cultural differences.

Then COVID hit. Something unexpected happened. After 30 years of corporate rut, I was laid off. That led me to jump into something I had tasted as a child and longed for over the years: beginning my Entrepreneurial journey.

In summary, I was stuck in the low points several times and faced challenges at multiple points. However, I learned lessons and made key changes throughout my life to leap forward.

The core lessons that I learned that make my life better with higher income and influence:

● No one is born with business skills.

● The growth mindset is the key. You must continuously learn, be proactive, adapt, and leave your comfort zone.

● Use the right systems and people. Even if you work hard, you may fail if you don’t have the right systems or people.

That's why I do what I do.
