How many lives can you touch?

Sairam friends,

I had holiday the past 4 days from work. I can’t say it was productive but I worked on few projects. I was also worried what to do in life. At times, Sai tells me, just be happy with your job but I feel, will I think after few years that I did not try much to be an Entrepreneur.

I went to Shirdi Saibaba temple in my hometown, sat in corner of Dwarakamai and read some books about Entrepreneurs who created companies successfully. I realized that even Men who have a very luxurious, lucrative job at one point realize, anyone can do my job. They become restless, do some research on what they wanted to do and quit their job.

They come back to their hometown or any major city in India and create their dream company from scratch.

“We must do something that touches lives of thousands of people who’s life must become better by what we do. To me, that’s Enterprising, Entrepreneurship and Creativity.”

There are people who leave a good Job, try to do business and loose all their wealth and there are few who take bold step to quit, launch their Startup and made it big.

I personally do not do anything without Saibaba’s approval. Sai neither said yes or not to me. Sai just gave me some good hints but also warned me the risk involved in being on my own.

4 days back, When I decided to work on the Project Sai approved, I went to Saibaba temple and got lamps as usual. The boy and Anna there surprisingly talked about their work. They said “If you are in flower business, you must work day and night, can’t celebrate a festival, can’t go out free. Our only relaxation is speaking to customers like you who become our friends.”

He went on to say, “Even if I have fever, I will be thinking about my work only.”

I went inside the main hall of temple and told Saibaba, “So you are telling basically I am leading a comfortable life now and if I get into business, then, I might have to sacrifice a lot and work hard?”

I told Baba, “You decide what I must do because I am running out of time. I wanted to do something that makes my life meaningful.”

I kept experimenting with few projects but have lots of doubts and questions that arises due to insecurity.

So what I learned this week?

1. One of the reason I fail is because I don’t do anything with proper plan.

2. I am expecting returns sooner though I know it takes time.

3. I am always changing my plan. New ideas come into me and I focus on all ideas together. I decided to focus on 5 projects at a time.

4. I think too much, worry too much which is the reason, I get tired and sleepy easily. Wish, I never think much.

I just know Saibaba is with me.

I got back ache as I kept sitting in front of my Computer. I learned some tutorials in Photography.

So how many lives can I touch? I touch some of you through StarSai and this is the best thing, I could possibly do in my life. Does Sai want me to do something more. Sai alone knows.

Sai Blessings,

Venkat
