Till now everything was about my academic and corporate experience.
Now let us concentrate on my entrepreneurial drive.
1 ) I'm an entrepreneur by my heart. Most of the time , almost 24 hour, whether in office or home, I work on my ideas, business plan/model. I've also finalised the ideas (It is in 1. social media healthcare domain , 2. productivity and time management and again 3. Doing all activities at proper time for Balance in life ) which , I've to work on. I'm going to execute these one by one. Also, I work on these whenever, I get time. And my initial team is also ready. I mean one of my friend also work on these projects with me.
I know/have experience of complete life-cycle of entrepreneurship like intellectual property rights, vision, innovation, lean startup principles, product management, design, legal aspect of business, accounting aspect of business, finance side of business, how to start a venture, how to incorporate a business, how to raise fund for a venture,how to do market research for a venture, marketing, sales, business development, operations, how to exit from the business etc.
I attend various events related to startup like Startup Saturday, Tie Product conclave, Open Coffee club etc.
I'm frequently active on Hacker news, Quora, Business Insider, Techmeme, Gigaom, Hacker news, Mixergy.com, Pluggd.in etc. Also, I go through blogs of various entrepreneurs.
I read lots of books and magazines related to self help, marketing, sales, business, philosophy, psychology, product management, entrepreneurship etc.
I also go through biographies of various entrepreneues, researchers etc.
I also advise guys who are interested in entrepreneurship regarding how to proceed for it (entrepreneurship).
2) During my graduation days , I had started a coaching institution for guys up to class 12. And, I had worked on this for 1 and 1/2 yr. It was a moderate success.
Now coming to the problem what I'm facing rightnow is that, I don't want to work in the Corporate for even one moment in tech (developer) role. I had never thought that , I'll have to work in IT for 3 long years. I had always thought that , I'll work for maximum 2 or 2 and 1/2 year, after then I'll fully work on my ideas.
But, the problem is that due to some incidents, suddenly family responsibilty has come upon me. Infact complete family responsibility has come upon me . Earlier there was nothing like this and I was completely free. So, due to this , I can't leave job rightnow.
But, now I'm fed up with tech job (developer), I don't want to continue this tech job (developer) even for one moment. That's why I'm looking for some consulting role (even IT consulting will do). Because this is what (research, general consulting type of role) I do in my free time also.
I explore about various sectors and I always look for busineess opportunities. I've good domain knowledge of various sectors like education, healthcare, media, social network/media (web 1.0/2.0/3.0) ,entertainment, advertising, payment, big data, telecom/wireless, mobile, network, operating system, knowledge management, publishing, symentic web/linked data/web 3.0, Machine learning/Artificial Intelligence, E-commerece, productivity, Content business, philosophy, psychology, behavioural economics etc.
I explored all these domains while looking for some big opportunity while working on my business idea and to find that in which domain/field , I'd like to work for a good part/time of my life. I mean you can say, I explored through all thses domains while exploring myself, I mean while searching for what I want in my life.
