Go...Go...Go...Go

Go...Go...Go...Go
This is the catch-phrase used in Counter-Strike (a 1st person shooter game - quite popular in B-Schools, Engg. Instt.).

As an entrepreneur, often, situations do arise where the decision is split in two different directions. You can choose to take Option I or Option II but what you can't do is stand still, wait and watch.

I use this catch-phrase to push me into one direction with utmost conviction (may be wrong decision but better than standing still). My experience:
- Hiking Training fees significantly (still less than the competitors, whoever is left that is)
- Conscious decision to provide extra learning despite the fact it may cost time, effort & resources
- Put down deals that may be quite lucrative in short-term but damaging in the long-run (associating with B-School Mgmt. who I know intends to cheat students)
- Starting a new training domain with NO CONSIDERATION to related earnings for 2 yrs. ( CA Final ISCA iscanotes.com )
- iPhone vs. 3 additional Desktop PCs for classroom
- Voluntarily waiving-off FULL training fees in case training quality isn't upto EN standards (Yes, it happened once when I was awake for 36 hrs. straight just before a full-day training)
- To hit or not to hit on a girl, considering she's from client's side (was a tough one but this time it was Go...Go...Go.. the OTHER way ...lol )

...and numerous such Go-No Go situations.
