Geeta & Reena’s top tips to becoming a successful entrepreneur
- Be confident, mindful and have a growth mindset. Believe in yourself and know that you can.
- Remember your purpose and why you started the journey. When things get tough, remind yourself of why you are doing it.
- Do something that you are passionate about and that leaves an impact.
- Look after yourself during the process as it’s easy to forget to do things that keep your glass half full when you’re extremely busy ‘making it happen’. There will be times when you are challenged and if you continue to look after yourself, you’ll make sure that you get through.
- Enjoy it and be happy!
