Zdravstvuite everyone!!! Hope all is well with everyone. As I mentioned earlier, focus now shifted to the project and that’s the only thing we can all think of at this time. Client meetings, checking with tutors to see if they are on right track, running around etc have been routines of all of us. I am sure we all will get there eventually but how much we are enjoying this journey is what matters. Things have changed so much since the course started and we all have totally different dimensions now. Some of us never intended to be entrepreneurs but now giving serious thoughts to it. I personally had no intentions to set up my own firm and was expecting a career move up the ladder through this MBA. But with all the theories in my head I am sure I will make my corporate life complicated by questioning everything. This may not be the case with everyone as the theories they absorbed will make them better equipped in the corporate environment. The last sem on Entrepreneurship and Innovation has now made me more inclined towards starting something on my own. I don’t know what is it going to be and when is it going to take shape but the idea of becoming an entrepreneur itself is so exciting. There are so many external factors which aren’t under my control and can influence my plans. But when you are passionate about it nothing can keep you away from it long enough for you to give up. So on a note of optimism I sign off to persuade on my idea of entrepreneurship.

Question the Answers !!
Hello everybody, hope all is good in the hood. We have just finished the last piece of academic work that we need to submit and now left with all the time to focus on our project work. Most of us have been given some challenging projects which is keeping us very occupied. Two more peaks to conquer and then we are out in the real world. While some chose to go back home, some want to pursue opportunities here. Few others venture into starting their own firms and some like still toying with the idea of entrepreneurship. Never the less, this course has caused immense change to our capabilities, broken few myths and changed lot of perspectives. At the end of the day how well we utilize the knowledge gained will define the level of success. We surely made lot of friends in this process and many of those will stay for each other going forward. We also made few mentors who would guide us whenever we hit a stumbling block. One of the basic learning was to never accept anything on the face of it and observe everything critically. My analytical thinking has definitely improved and I always try to get to the bottom of everything I come across now. Sometimes the critical questioning makes it complicated and may lead to chaos. But chaos is good and every time there is chaos, things would change for better. While I struggle with my complexities to figure out what next, I leave all of you with one of my favorite quotes “Question the answers”.

A thing about Economics
Hello all, I know it has been a little while since I last met you all through my blogs. But As I mentioned earlier, it’s my assignments and the client project keeping me busy, in fact more busy than ever. I remember I mentioned the famous quote on education and how it enables us to discover our own self. I am sure there will be few out there who tend to disagree with me. The general notion is that real world experience is significantly higher than the knowledge gained in a class room. Trust me folks, I was one of them. However some different circumstances lead me to school and as I come to the end of the course I started to realize how it changed lot of things in me. Especially the third sem has been a great learning and during this process it lead me to a whole new world. Some of the corporate ideologies remained mystery to me while I was working but now I began to unravel each of them in a logical manner. The module on entrepreneurship has taught immensely and I wish I had more time to spend in the class rooms on that specific module. It helped me understand a thing or two about economics which hold the key to many issues a company faces. Every economic policy is like a snowball and gains strength over a period of time and the impact will be huge on not just corporates but the entire working class. I only dreamt of working for a corporation but now my opinion has changed for better and thanks to the MBA. On that note I leave you all to start understanding the basics of economics which will be very beneficial and form the fundamentals of any business.
