Don't Give Undue Importance To Dogs

Hey, you might be saying that earlier I wrote about Dogs being pretty pets and stress relievers and today I am writing that you should not give undue importance to dogs. But here I am not talking about the actual dogs, but the proverbial dogs. There is a saying that Haathi Chale Bazaar, Kutte Bhouke Hazaar. This was in Hindi. I will translate for you. It says that When an Elephant takes a walk along the market, all the dogs will bark at it. But does the elephant give any heed to the dogs? No. 

Our Entrepreneurial journey is similar. When we take a leap of faith and start on our own, there are many mouths which will say different things. But should we pay any heed to them. There is another proverb, saying Listen to Everyone but Do What your heart says. If you have set up goal and you are following a path, you cannot just throw stones at every dog that barks at you. If you do so, they will only waste your time. Do your job and people will slowly come to you. Your belief is the single most important factor that will take you towards your goal. There is a famous dialogue from film Guru based on Business Legend of India - Dhirubhai Ambani. It says - When people begin to talk behind your back, consider you are successful. "Jab Log Tumhare Khilaf Bolne Lage, Samajh Lo Tarraki Kar Rahe Ho".
