Vikas Rana's Blog: September 2011
http://ranavikas.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 28, 2011. I am always fascinated by smart people. You get to learn so much from them, it makes work life so much enjoyable. I have been fortunate enough to work with the best of people in a decade long career. While I landed at Trilogy by chance (I haven't had heard about it before, being the dot com burst era nobody else was really hiring at that time), I had the opportunity to choose my people at my startup. I think we have done a good job - everybody has been awesome. As an entrep...

Vikas Rana's Blog: Quick Tips for Startups and Future Plans
http://ranavikas.blogspot.com/2009/04/quick-tips-for-startups-and-future.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. Quick Tips for Startups and Future Plans. Startups are hard. You go through tough situations, need to take lot of tough decisions. When we are in job at a well-established company, we don’t really realize how much comfortable position we are in. Many people start out with the dream of making it big. You don’t make big unless you have the willingness to do it. And believe me, startups test all that willingness. From my interview at startups.in. Posted by Vikas Rana.

Thursday, July 31, 2008. Being Your Own Boss. One of the side effects of being an entrepreneur is that you are your own boss. Unlike some other side effects you might have come across, it is a good one to have. You get to do things your own way - own tasks, own deadlines, own work. You are your own manager. Basically, you have lot of flexibility. But then, isn't that one of the main reasons why startups are fun? In a big company, you have set rules and you play according to that. There is not a whole...

Wednesday, November 05, 2008. In search of our own Obama. India woke up to Obama's victory. Today He has created history by becoming the first black president of USA. At a personal level, I am felling happy, though not exactly sure why. If one calls the current political situation bleak, the future is not bright either. We seem to be going downhill. People are dying on daily basis. But nobody seem to be bothered. As if there were not enough differences already, even more are being created.

Monday, September 22, 2008. Good Work, Bad Work. I joined my previous company, Trilogy, at an early stage. I guess I was the 22nd employee. One of the benefits was that I got to know half of the people personally. I value people and relationships a lot, and it felt nice to know so many smart people by their first name. One thing I've realized out of that experience, and in general otherwise, is that smart people complain a lot. They don't get satisfied easily. Call it the curse of smartness! Strangely, t...

Vikas Rana's Blog: The Thing called Mental Strength
http://ranavikas.blogspot.com/2011/09/thing-called-mental-strength.html
Monday, September 12, 2011. The Thing called Mental Strength. I am not very happy about my mental performance this year because for moments I didn't believe really 100 percent in victory. That's the big problem. Because when that's happening, you have fewer chances than if you believe. If you believe, you are running more and you are putting one more ball inside. So that's what I'm going try to change. Posted by Vikas Rana. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Join Must See India. Follow me on Twitter.

Thursday, May 21, 2009. What We Did Right. One of my friends is just starting on a startup of his own and he asked me about marketing and other things we did in our early days for mustseeindia.com. That got me started on what all things we did good in early stages. Here's a list of things I think helped us when we started - tips on starting-up from our own experience. Shortly, I'll also publish a list of things we could have done better. 160;joined few months after that. 2 Release early, Release often.
