It is a skill that individuals have practiced either in a bid to stand apart from the society, or to improve the society. The word itself connotes innovation and creativity – coming up with something new or improving it.
Me and three of my friends decided to start a start-up company, Synacor, we all had the same path of thoughts and our different careers made us quite a team. Thus we decided to head into the entrepreneurship world, and this is what has made us to be Nokia Do Good Hackathon Winners, just 8 months into the business. We run by three things, faith, perseverance and determination… one must always be looking for ways to enable efficiency and improvement of your product. Douglas Injugu , Techpreneur.
Here are a few tips I have come to learnt in my last few years as an entrepreneur:
Hope and Faith
As an entrepreneur you need to have faith. These are times when you trust your guts, and when such times come, you need to have faith, you need to believe in somewhere inside you, it will work, and it doesn’t hurt if you fail, at least you tried, and got to know why it failed.
One thing I always say is that, the worst thing you can do as an individual who is starting a company is not taking risks involving your new product, the one you want to be your companies flag bearer, fear is the worst thing an entrepreneur can have. Thus hope and faith, with this two you will get to trust your instincts at least.
