From the last two decades, startup oriented mindset and motivation is evident in youth, especially in India, from service-oriented professions and government services and planning the future following safety and security of job posts to taking a risk and initiating ideas and implementing them into actions and providing it with a marketplace and deserved audience.
Doing a job or practicing your professional career is an excellent idea for kick starting your earning and learning process and make something productive out of your time. But if you want to do something of your own then also there is nothing wrong with it. If you have a strong idea, right intention, desired motivations, required skill, and correct guidance, then the pool has plenty of seed funders dying for meeting you for making your dream come true and ready to invest the most amount your start-up requires. You think I am kidding. But no, I am more than serious. If you have the ability and passion for bringing a positive change to society and the environment, then keep going, buddy. You are on the right track; do not lose hope and keep hustling for it. Please don’t stop until you make it.
