Life's Too Short to be Wasted in a Cubicle!

Our Heroes – Those who broke the 9to5 jail…

Posted Under: Announcement, Our Heroes

So, here’s the deal… I was thinking about how should I beef up the blog with interesting content that will inspire, entertain and educate all at the same time… I brainstormed over a lot of ideas, asked around some of you and discussed with friends too but what was missing from most of the ideas that I was getting was the element we call “being real”…

Yes, all the preaching is fine but what about the practicality involved? And to answer that question, who better than real life entrepreneurs who have been there and done the same. So, I finally decided on interviewing folks who once were in the same shoes as you (9to5 jail) but not anymore because they took the leap and escaped from the cubicle… My discussion with these ’employee turned entrepreneur’ will broadly cover:

1. Who they are and what kind of corporate job were they at?
2. What made them leave the job? When did they realize that they wanted to be an entrepreneur & why?
3. What did they do to break the corporate jail? How did they prepare for the employee to entrepreneur transition?
4. Suggestions for aspiring entrepreneurs. (My fav!!)
5. How are they doing and how do they feel now?

So, stay tuned for these 3/week dose of inspiration in the form of interviews with dynamite entrepreneurs…
