Why Articles on Entrepreneurs?

Growing up in a typical asian family, we have to focus on academics and purely academics. Getting good grades, getting into the Top University, good corporate job was everyone's goal. The typical job role that parents look up to is to be a lawyer, banker, doctor and in the well known corporate companies that are based in the city. 

When I grew up, I didn't go through "What colour is your parachute" and didn't utilise my skills and interest as a person which resulted to me asking myself  WHY. I knew that was a problem that many young generations are facing and just following the rat race to fit in the society. I want to expose young generations to pursue and follow their passion with stories to inspire them who they want to be. Hence, I've met entrepreneurs along my journey and I hope it'll inspire you to take a leap of faith and just do it.

Take a look at the articles of these inspiring entrepreneurs who found their way through and advice they'll give to people who are starting out in their industry.
