When times get challenging, one can get nervous and think of giving up. However, it's those who persevere who rise up to the top. Stress and difficulties are natural when you are an entrepreneur and when you want to accomplish something great in life. Doing a job is different than being an entrepreneur. If you fail in a job you may quit and search for another. However, for an entrepreneur much more is at stake. A female entrepreneur has more challenges than men - work, home and family responsibilities. Most people have doubts about the competence of female entrepreneurs in the comparatively male dominant society.
Owning up responsibility and building trust with the people helps. We learn from our own and others' mistakes. Having realistic plans and expectations is a must. There were many challenges while setting up the cafe. It was a struggle but the idea was to focus in the right direction. It’s equally a challenge to run a café well in the ever-increasing competitive market. One needs to be innovative and needs to study various factors, plans and actions of competitors. One has to be different and be sure of what he or she is doing. This gives confidence and helps in overcoming anxiety too.
