" In the business world, the rear-view mirror is always clearer than the windshield. "

In business schools, institutes and colleges we are taught about various formulas and theories that might help us during our venture, they also teach us about various tools that can help us in assessing whether our business is profitable or not.

But, in reality you learn biggest lessons when you're doing business practically. Unlike case study, you can't erase your move and make another one. You have to act in a limited time frame and then there's no going back. Theories, knowledge and calculations can only support your feat. No matter how much you try, no matter how much experience you have you'll always find yourself in a confusing situation. You only move forward with your judgement. However, every mistake is a new lesson to learn from. And that helps as you move forward in an unknown abyss. So keep doing what you believe in and smile when you make mistakes because atleast then you get to know what doesn't work for you.
