From my early days as a member of Entrepreneurs' Organization and graduating MIT's ‘Birthing of Giants’, to being one of the founding members of the YPO Impact Chapter, and now joining Titans, mentors and peer learning have been a crucial part of my entrepreneurial journey. They've guided me, challenged me, and believed in me, proving that the right mentor and network can indeed change the course of your business journey. Mentorship provides guidance, fosters growth, and opens doors to unparalleled opportunities. Looking for a mentor? Seek someone whose values align with yours and who's where you aspire to be. Now, it's your turn. Who has been your mentor in this entrepreneurial journey, or how do you plan to become that guiding light for someone else? Share your story and tag someone who has made an impact in your professional career and growth–let's inspire and uplift each other in this path of mentorship.

If there's one skill that you need to master early on in life is simply this "The ability to learn anything and everything on your own" If you are one of those who think you need a "Mentor" to teach you something, then you are mistaken But, don't get me wrong, I am not downplaying the role of teachers & mentors in life! But the fact is: - Professors cannot teach you a subject - Superstar actors cannot teach you how to act - Billionaires cannot teach you how to make a billion dollars - Entrepreneurs cannot teach you how to be a serial entrepreneur - And lastly MBA colleges cannot teach you everything about a busienss So, the solution is simply this: - Take mentorship and don't rely on them fully - Understand you need to apply the learnings on your own - You need "Your Experience" more than you need a textbook gyan - Lastly, no teacher has all the answers, you need to explore and be curious __ So, with this, I'm out for today! Peace, be still!

Balancing school and entrepreneurial ventures is no easy feat. Here's how I inspired young minds through lectures while excelling in business. At just 16, while juggling school and running my companies, I took on the additional role of mentoring and inspiring students through lectures. 📚 Inspiring Young Minds: Giving Lectures in 10th Grade 📚 While managing RS Developers & Designers and RS Animates, I was also a 10th-grade student. My days were packed with schoolwork and business responsibilities, often working on projects until 2 AM and then heading to school in the morning. Because of these achievements, I was invited to give career guidance lectures to students my age. Speaking to students about my journey, the challenges I faced, and the lessons I learned was incredibly rewarding. My goal was to inspire them to pursue their passions, regardless of the obstacles. These lectures were not just about sharing my story but about motivating others to dream big and work hard to achieve their goals. Seeing the spark of inspiration in the eyes of young students was immensely gratifying. Balancing school and entrepreneurship, while mentoring others, was challenging yet fulfilling. It shaped me into a more resilient and motivated individual. Stay tuned to learn more about how these experiences shaped my journey and the exciting projects I worked on next! 🚀 #Inspiration #Entrepreneurship #Education #Motivation #YoungMinds #Mentoring #CareerGuidance #StudentLife

I've been asked recently during media interviews what I can share with other entrepreneurs. Often, the answer is about the business [the obvious]...#Mentorship How about the power of giving. It allows the mentor to gain new insights and reflect. One conversation can change someone's life for good for the #mentee and the #mentor. Shout out to Burhanuddin Calcuttawala for leading a mentorship initiative for YES Prep Public Schools. #Reflections on growing as a leader and as a tech founder[beyond the obvious]: When my core values are not aligned with my actions, it causes stress, tension, and anxiety. - What are my core values: Service (mentoring children, living with integrity, moral purpose, congruence), My family (My kiddos), Fun (Art, Music, Creativity, Curiosity, Getaways), self-care ---> All to achieve inner peace. - Do my actions align with my core values? - Every decision I make should aligned with my core values - I choose one key win per week (Not necessarily business) #tech #founder #mentor #mentee #beyondtheobvious #humanside

Happy Teacher's Day to all my fellow educators, mentors, and lifelong learners! 🎉 As someone who’s had the privilege of teaching entrepreneurship and mentoring startups, I’ve often wondered about the impact of two roles that shape us in profound ways: teachers and mentors. Today, I want to ask all of you—who do you think has a bigger influence? Is it the teacher who lays the foundation, or the mentor who guides you through real-world challenges? Or maybe it’s a blend of both? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Share an experience, a moment, or a lesson that’s stuck with you—whether it was from a teacher or a mentor. Let’s celebrate those who help us grow, in every way. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! 👇 #HappyTeachersDay #TeachersDay2024 #Entrepreneurship #Mentorship #Education #Learning

Mentor and protégé (or mentee) are an association that is as old as time, much like the story of beauty and the beast. The idea of mentor and protégé was around for centuries prior to the term being coined, and it has helped some of the most well-known personalities in the world today achieve success. Starting and continuing to operate a business may be quite daunting for entrepreneurs; only the most driven ones succeed. Because of this, it is advised that aspiring business owners seek out mentorship and use an experienced individual to guide them through the process. In the business world, mentorships are quite prevalent and have a significant impact on the development of entrepreneurs and enterprises. The potential of mentoring to promote self-improvement, accelerate development, and open doors is what gives it its power. This article examines the advantages of mentoring for business owners.

“Mentorship is Expensive” A lot of people say to me that’s a lot of money to have a mentor! What they don’t realise is that I am learning from an individual who has grown many business created the lifestyle they dreamt of! Lots of us are happy to pay £50k for a university degree (myself inclided before I knew about this), because we are told this will help us progress in a business. But unfortunately all university does is feed us into the bottom of the corporate ladder with the dream that one day we might be a director or C -suite level, and this might be want some people want which is absolutely fine But if you want a life of working for yourself and retiring before 70, this is where a mentor is crucial! A mentor gives you the knowledge and guidance of how to grown your own business, and become financially independent, which for entrepreneurs like me is far more valuable than a univiersty degree! #mentorship #education #business
