3Ks to shun to become eligible to start the entrepreneurial journey
- Kāma (Sanskrit, Pali; Devanagari: काम) is translated from Sanskrit as pleasure, sensual gratification, sexual fulfillment, pleasure of the senses, desire, eros, or the aesthetic enjoyment of life
- Krodh is derived from the Sanskrit word krodha, which means wrath or Rage.
- Kasht is suffering, pain, agony; hardship; distress; penury, affliction; difficulty, trouble; labour, toil, exercise
Kāma - An emerging entrepreneur can be easily distracted by Kāma - the glamour, the appreciation, the urge to accumulate material things, the pride of initial "apparent" success and of course, the fairer sex. It becomes very essential to "talk" oneself out of these to maintain a clear vision of the long-term goal. A Junoon like faith and "Point of No-return" like attitude are the only tools that can help you do so.
Krodh - When the hard work is unfavorably disproportionate to the results and need to put in the greater efforts is constant, Krodh sometimes, become inevitable. A VERY STRONG mind is needed to keep quiet and let the rage pass away.On some occasions you fail and on some occasions you fail miserably. Accept your mistake and apologize quickly with a ZERO tolerance to SELF-EGO.
Kasht - Despite the constant satisfaction of "creating something out of nothing", Kasht will continue to be borne by the striving entrepreneur. Foregoing short-term benefits (say iPhone, that Chevrolet Spark) and 365 days constant work with almost 18 hrs./day of engagement in work, the Kasht will be both Physical and Mental. Need to constantly train your Body and Mind becomes a necessity. Constant self-conversation becomes a habit. Mind holds dialogue with itself to the point of being insane.
Controlling these 3Ks require constant "Self-brainwashing" and it does not ensure success but yes, one could be a step closer to the Lakshya. As always, Lakshya ko HAR HAAL mey paana hai !
