I recently came across some entrepreneurial circle of Nepal via social media. It was great to watch my brothers engaging and coming up with new ideas. Most of the focus was in agriculture sector. I believe this sort of group really encourages entrepreneurship within us. But, we also have to keep in mind that we have to develop our inner strength first and interfere in other business less.
The fact ‘Mind your Own Business’ I believe is very strong notion to look at. If we all can mind our own doing’s I think it will be easy for all of us to concentrate on our activities and bring good results not only in entrepreneurial side but also in our personal livings and social aspects.
Let the student study. Let the entrepreneurs bring new products to the market and let the leaders do their politics in good faith, which is beneficial for the society and the nation. And, let the government focus on development policies, so that we can go beyond our national boundaries to become multinational nation.
If we had done our jobs well, major issue of load shedding wouldn't have happened. Third party interference wouldn't have been there in our land and the gas and oil prices could have been adjustable. The concept of Gross National Happiness could have increased, and foreign investors may have come like floods. At this moment for me this seems to be fictional notions. Why foreign investors choosing India and China but not us? The only reason is because they are emerging and they have built their core competence more strong now. If they are emerging why can’t we? Where is our competence gone that rest inside of our land and our people’s heart? We have resources lined up in our country but where is the use? Why can’t be our educational system be more practical and vocational, so that youngsters, soon after their study fit in the right boxes in the market. In this regard I say to all ‘Be Bahadur or Be Bahadur’. I hope you understand what I mean.
Being a humanly nature we have interest in finding other’s juicy affairs and making ourselves happy, but does that make any importance to us or does that make our soul happy at the end ? If somebody is successful or is rich maybe it’s all due to their hard work and there is no point in being jealous with them. What we need to know is minding our own business and making our own efforts in bringing our results fruitful for future growth. There is no point in cheating to ourselves. These things we need to find out by ourselves only.
Why we have to bother about others without looking at ourselves? I say, if we are too generous then we should involve in a charity to develop the community and erase the poverty and injustice like Mrs Dil Shoba Shrestha or Ms Anuradha Koirala, otherwise we should concentrate on our own business to make it stronger for the future development. I assume these two ladies success was due to their strength and determination in their own duties inside of their boundaries’.
Keeping our hands, legs and minds in others affairs will bring harm to us and our relationship environments. We are sole responsible for making ourselves rise from our competitors. But this also doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t keep an eye on our competitors. Yes, we can look at them and learn from them and implement their successful strategies in our own operations, but it is also necessary that we shouldn’t interfere in their activities unless it’s against the law and humanity. Why can’t we become the next Bill Gates, Richard Branson or Mark Zuckerburg? We have time to spend too much on facebook, twitter and other social media criticizing others, but why don’t we think to develop such successful platforms in our own land, or at least make alike their successful strategies in our dealings and operations. These notions we need to think at.
I am fortunate that I am able to see some overseas territory .Sometimes when I walk down to some of the streets in London; I find many Asian continents bank operating at their full speed and developing their economy from abroad. Why our nation doesn't have any banks in overseas when the people like the giant tycoons have the capacity to invest in new ventures in overseas; and investment policies are at desk to help at our door? Why India, Bangladesh and Pakistan or other Asian continental countries have done to do so in overseas or have brought foreign investments in their territory? This is all because we are not developing our own core competencies, rather we believe in a hope of third party to control and develop our own resources. This is all lack of our strength to believe in ourselves and in our own consciousness. Learning from those who already have gone the success phase, there is no harm in implementing to our environment. We need to bring entrepreneurial skills in each of us by concentrating on issues which are relevant to our life and to our society without interfering in other’s activities.
Before we do any action in any other affairs we should at least think twice:
- Why we are involving in other’s affairs?
- Is the issue really concern us?
- If the issue is affecting us then only it’s good to make our operational move to tackle the issues.
- With regards to national issues, one thing we need to understand is its government affairs to control the activities which are not benefiting to the society and for its people development, but not ours. That’s why we have appointed the officials for. And yes, if the issue is really destroying our identity in regards to our freedom to have a free air, inflation, employment, educational and business operations, then a way can be achieved via a peaceful protest to get the things right by raising a voice, so that concerned officials take actions.
What we all need is the consciousness that can take us to our own freedom. We don’t have to be government or the authority ourselves, but we can choose leaders for the authority which can take us to a freedom which every citizen or a human expects. That freedom, which engage ourselves to activities which can lead to our and society development as whole. I believe the notion of minding our own affairs is a way to fulfill our gross national happiness and increase our own business and ultimately the long term effect will be fruitful. And, this can also be applied in running our own business enterprise.
In a hope, next time when we operate or walk down the streets, let’s only do and talk which is relevant to the topic and don’t throw our dirty butts anywhere where we not concerned. Let’s keep minding our own affair which it seems is necessary in our own development.
