Answer 1

1. Interest in entrepreneurial career:

There are reasons to become an entrepreneur. Following is the list though not exhaustive.

First and the foremost thing, entrepreneurs can affect many lives in positive ways. Lives of customers by providing high quality product and services, lives of employees who can earn wages for their families and lives of other citizens who will get more by the taxes an entrepreneur pays. Through this I can contribute to the growth of the nation also.

Another reason is this career will give me autonomy to work according to my ideas. May be my ideas will not get success in first attempt, but I will learn to make them successful.

Apart from effects on lives and autonomy, entrepreneurial career will provide me opportunity to turn my passion for financial outcome.

2. Experience:

I had an interesting and emotional experience when I started my own meal services for office employees. We were a team of 5 delivery boys, 2 cooks and 2 office assistants to serve 50 customers daily. One day we got a call from a lady. She wanted to start meal services for her husband. It was a surprise for him. We sent a greeting card with the packed meal to her husband. She became happy and called our team to thank. Little things made their day. Excellent service and surprising moments can build the business.

Hope this will help.
