Rajiv Talreja is one of India’s leading business coaches and author of the bestseller 'Lead or Bleed'.
Are you an entrepreneur thinking about how to grow your business? The reality is, if you want to accelerate the performance of your venture, you have to work on the roots that influence it.
Rajiv Talreja, one of India’s leading business coaches and author of the bestseller 'Lead or Bleed', has been instrumental in helping thousands of entrepreneurs across India transform their business.
Most entrepreneurs struggle because their business is dependent solely on them. They are the driving force behind every single function — marketing, sales, operations, customer service, accounts, human resources or management. When an entrepreneur is involved in every aspect of the business, growth takes a back seat.
'Lead or Bleed' Talreja came to this conclusion after interviewing 300 CEOs and business leaders from across verticals to find the answers to two questions: 1. What is the psychology required to build a successful business? 2. What are the systems required for entrepreneurs to build their business from small to big?

Talreja took his learnings from real-life achievers and turned them into simple and practical steps for entrepreneurs and business owners who are committed to getting out of the trap of survival to truly build a successful business.
According to Talreja, one must understand the psychology and the systems required and make changes that will transform the fortune of a business.
Banker-turned-author Chetan Bhagat is ringing his 45th birthday today. The '5 Point Someone' author, who quit his 11-year-old high-paying job to follow his passion for writing, credits his success to determination that kept pushing him to never give up. At an Alibaba Foundation event in 2018, while shared a few anecdotes from his childhood, Bhagat recalled the time when money was in short supply.
"My friends from rich families got nicer school-bags and pencil-boxes, and came to school in luxury cars. Being born in a middle-class family, money was always in short supply. Instead of feeling jealous, I decided to achieve all of it myself," he said.
As the '2 States' author turns 45, here are some more winning formula tips from his journey.

"In a jungle, a lion's cub, initially fed by his/her mother, eventually has to learn how to hunt. He/she needs to sharpen the claws and learn how to use them. For humans, claws represent the mind," Bhagat said.
According to Bhagat, a sharp mind can do wonders in any situation. And for those with no material wealth in life, education is the stepping stone to sharpen one's mental faculties, and rise above one's station, he shared with the audience.
While he loves surfing the Internet (he has a sizeable social media following), chatting with friends and watching cute puppy videos, his mantra is very clear: ‘Work first, fun later’.

If ol' habits die hard, good habits stay. And that's why the bestseller writer feels that it's essential to inculcate good habits that will see you through life. And if you've ever been lazy or lacked discipline to complete a task, fret not: what matters most is getting back on track.
Bhagat said that as a child he would seek refuge in the local, video game parlours for Re 1 instead of studying. But, somewhere, good sense prevailed and he didn't let that become a (bad) habit.
"Good habits are hard to develop and can seem like a pain, but are worth it," he added.

When Bhagat decided to choose a college, he started preparing for the IITs because it would make him employable and independent. In other words, empowered to look after himself.
And his message to the audience was: Equip yourself to one day not be dependent on anyone - this applies to everyone, but especially to girls, and women.
As more women break barriers and assume non-conventional roles, they are setting new limits for themselves, he said. And this is becoming possible because women are feeling empowered to take on challenges and excel in roles that were previously dominated by men.

Failure, often, pulls one down, and pushes a person to the brink of taking an extreme step. Bhagat revealed that he, too, once wanted to end his life in school because he didn't fare well in Chemistry exams.
"Anxiousness and failure can play mind games with you. But, it is up to you to learn from your experiences and move on," he shared.
In an increasingly cynical world, it's important to hold one's stead, and stay positive.

Wonder why people love reading Bhagat's novels? Well, the author when asked, quipped: 'Because I care for my readers'.
"I have made reading easy, try to keep my stories fun, and my books highlight problems of my readers," he said.
And the engineer-turned-author reiterated that while it is okay to be self-centered when achieving one's goals, one should never forget those who may have helped you in your journey.

Talreja says that in any business, if too many activities and initiatives are dependent on the business owner, then most of them won’t be done with consistency. To produce results, says Talreja, one requires focus and consistency. And business owners who have too much on their plate, usually are too busy firefighting or tackling crises. In a nutshell, to build a successful business, an entrepreneur has to learn to reduce the dependency on himself. Talreja has been instrumental in helping several Indian businesses adopt best practices and practical systems. At his Business Breakthrough seminar, he shares the psychology and the focus areas for entrepreneurs to build their business in a manner where it can grow even without them. Entrepreneurs who attend the Business Breakthrough Seminar vouch for the simplicity and effectiveness of what Talreja teaches them.
The seminar is being organised by Success Gyan, as part of the CEO and founder Surendran Jayasekar’s vision to ‘bring the world’s best to India and take India’s best to the world’.
