We know well that tree plantation
requires nursery for growing tiny plants from dormant seeds by creating
comfortable environment for seed to sprout and grow in confined enclosure
equipped with essential minerals, moisture and protective chemicals and
sunlight.
The same procedure is required for
starting a business or industry from fresh graduates. They require seed
capital, land, shop or workplace, customers and money for their livelihood.
Initially any business or industry is with investments without returns and
profit starts only after breakeven point.
Even incase of tree, we have to wait till it starts giving flowers or
fruits. In case of big trees, the growth period is pretty long and plants die
due to environmental factors or attack of insects and animals.
Still there are some stubborn plants,
which we hate as weeds which grow in adverse conditions. For our delicate monoculture
irrigation or gardening we need extra care and protection from competing weeds
and insects. We have to use wide spread insecticides and chemicals to kill
them.
Still in our urban concrete
jungle, we find some native trees growing in tiny crevices with scanty moisture
and persist to live even after our attempts to cut or remove them. They build
their root network so strong that they can sprout again.
Unfortunately, the present
scenario of business or industry growth can be compared with monoculture or non-native
tree plantations. I have a feeling that similar
well proven methods are being employed by multinationals to weed out small
native businesses and shops to dominate the market with their money loaded workforce
and management techniques to lure the customers.
It is high time that we understand
the consequences well in advance and resort to protective measures and create
amicable environment for small native businesses and industries to grow and
survive. This requires
1. Creating
awareness about real profit motives of multinationals and damage to small
industries.
2. Providing
safe, productive environment and subsistence financial help with assured
customer base for new small businesses till they become strong enough to
survive and grow
3. Providing
technical training and management assistance for running business profitably
and be up to date with changes in technology and business environment.
4. Developing
channels for purchase, distribution and sell of small scale products and
services
5. Creating
strong collaborative association of small units to compete with big corporate giants

is a small step in that direction. People do not know that huge market exists
for their acquired skills, education and experience. In IT sector, jobs of
typing, translating, drawing, image processing, video editing, Web and Mobile development, online teaching and
consultation, writing books, podcasting stories and education material, data
entry, small software programs, performing arts and creating innovative advertisements.
All these do not require long period to learn and can become a great asset for
earning with work from home at our convenience.
Like IT, in every other sector,
internet has provided tons of facilities and free solutions which can be used
to become professional expert in any selected field.
I would like to compare service
and self business as using automatic lift and staircase. Huge rush is there for
lift with limited seats. Staircase is always open for anybody to climb, but he
has to exert for that. Entrepreneur prefers staircase, goes up slowly but
steadily. Is self dependent and he only produces lifts for others to work for
him.
Dnyandeep Infotech Pvt. Ltd. would
search for jobs and offer them to members of Dnyandeep Foundation who in turn
will help to grow both organizations along with self development.
This is my innovative dream
project. If I could convince others to join, project would succeed. If the
response is negative, I shall keep the struggle on till I am successful. – Dr.
