'For the one who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends, but for the one who has failed to do so; his very mind will be his greatest enemy.'

This is one of the most powerful statements Lord Krishna said while sharing teaching of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna. Interestingly, this statement, which was relevant then, makes a lot of sense even today. The only difference is that the lessons of this preaching must be picked up by young entrepreneurs, who we see as today's Arjuna. On Janamashhtami, which marks the birthday of Lord Krishna, we bring to you a few lessons that young entrepreneurs can learn from him.

1. Grounded

The very first formula that strikes the chord is their realistic and grounded approach. There are many stories about Lord Krishna, who spent his childhood days in a village and later embraced ‘kingship’, that clearly suggest how he stay rooted to the ground even when he had the whole world in his hands.

2. True companion

We have all heard the epic Sudama and Krishna’s friendship tale. Such a true companionship rarely exists nowadays, but if entrepreneurs can adapt this quality even partly, they would surely win over many friends who will stick with them through thick and thin.

3. Master of all traits

Krishna was a teacher, an artist, a warrior, a preacher, an ocean of knowledge, a learner, a lover and a master of all those traits. To attain success, you too should master certain specific traits of an entrepreneur: the fighter, the problem solver, the knowledge-seeker, and most importantly, the risk-taker.

4. Philosophy of Karma

Karmanye Vadhikaraste, Ma phaleshou kada chana,

Ma Karma Phala Hetur Bhurmatey Sangostva Akarmani.

Just focus on what you have to do and don’t bother about the consequences. Just trust your instincts and go ahead. 

5. Subtle communicator



Beginning from his childhood days, Krishna was a great communicator; we've heard tales of his mischievous yet smart doings. He knew what it takes to convince people and sell your ideas. This is precisely what every entrepreneur should master as well.
