Ankur Srivastava’s journey from a small-town boy to a prominent ambitious entrepreneur is quite motivational. Meet Ankur Srivastava – a self-motivated person through this story.

Early life of Ankur Srivastava

Ankur Srivastava is from a small town in UP. Being an introvert, he spent most of the time wanting to be an extrovert. Despite it being challenging to accept himself, he navigated through to find an introvert’s hidden powers. He explains how introvert has the power of not getting betrayed as their friend circle is selective and carefully chosen with time. He also mentions being a people pleaser in the early times.

His delivery of speech explains that he conquered them well. His family consists of his mom, dad, businessman, and sister. He is proud of his parents for trusting him to do what he wants. They are also supportive of him. As a school-going boy, he was very studious and hardworking.

College Life and Learning

Then he got into a college in Hyderabad, ICFAI University. He especially liked his college days, as he was able to explore more cultures. As a person who spent his teens in a small town, he was eager to explore and learn about other cultures. And this was an excellent opportunity for him to grow as a person. His dream to be an entrepreneur has been ever since his college days. Meanwhile, he did not get enough networking for growing as an entrepreneur. Still, he proved his autonomous capability by discovering ways to learn more.

He tried to pursue multiple things in multiple domains. As he was not a part of the premium university, the lack of networking got him to work more towards self-learning. He firmly believes that motivation is temporary, whereas mentorship is a permanent essential. He explains in an interview how being from a small town can narrow down the opportunities and the broadness of vision.

Ankur Srivastava also shares his concern about the relatively more minor opportunity for small-town people to network about entrepreneurship. Networking is an essential factor in entrepreneurship, he says. Significantly, a mentor can help us get the plan to action. And a real-time inspiration can boost our motive as the energy transfer. Also, podcasts or speech’s motivation dies soon, as he mentioned in one of his interviews. He also read a lot about startups and learned from their experience. He claims his role model to be any self-motivated person. But he also specially mentions Steve Jobs, Jack ma, and Naval.

Inspiration

He got a job in a reputed company and still worked in a startup to gain practical experience. He believes in learning through free exploration. He worked in multiple startups. So the amount and distinctive experience he has is efficient, it implies—secondly, the mindset. The mindset to do business by projecting the purposeful idea is essential. It is also to be gained by networking.

Ankur Says Self Analysis is the key to finding purpose in one’s life, especially in business. Being a spiritual person, he believes in the purpose of life more than money. It explains how his life and business are entangled. He sees career and life to be the same. And thus enjoy his Monday rather than hating to go out.

He wants to provide students with this exposure beforehand and save them from the turmoil he went through. He even wants to share the tools he used to overcome his introvert’s insecurities. He motivates students and even his sister to pursue what she likes rather than following societal norms. He says going with the flow that is compatibility and skill set are purposeful. And his purpose is to be happy. And his happiness depends on satisfying his purpose.
