Business innovation is an organization's process for introducing new ideas, workflows, methodologies, services or products. In business innovation is a “buzz” word. For a business, it could mean implementing new ideas, improving services or creating dynamic products. By innovation, we mean changing the business model and making changes in the existing environment to deliver better products or services. Innovation helps you stay ahead of the competition. With globalization and a rapidly changing market, there are more competing businesses than ever before.

We have with us Steven Cook  to discuss this point. He is based in Oklahoma City, USA and is host of Better Business Podcast. He is also co-owner of Cook Feed & Outdoor. He grew up in a family full of business owners. Between parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and in-laws Steven has never known anything besides owning your own business. Since 2009 he has helped build his family's performance equine business to multiple locations, multiple millions in sales, and to one of the largest individually owned equine feed dealers in the nation. He was ingrained from an early age by an entrepreneurial upbringing, so he found it shocking that very few business podcasts actually dealt with the questions that an ordinary small business owner would have. Between the knowledge of running a business and interviewing countless business experts on the podcast- he now is trying to share advice to fellow small business owners through "Better Business Podcast".

People make mistake by randomly jumping into business or profession  without even introspecting oneself. One person first need to find what  one’s soul is looking for. Hence the concept of “Ikigai” comes. So, before you make a start, you must find out your “Ikigai”. Finding  out is not that tough. Few simple questions can clarify that

Diwali — is the far beyond — being just a festival. This is festival of  light. In order words, this is festival to dispel darkness. Darkness  refers darkness of all aspects — right from darkness of inner soul to  darkness of external world. This is a wonderful way to lead for future.  In ancient days, every occasion is marked with a milestone or festivity.  These milestones help to remind us about the occasion — in other words,  the importance of occasion.

Entrepreneurship requires a lot of knowledge. Best way to get knowledge is by reading. To grow, you will require one of the most important element: “Learning”.  This element acts as wonderful investment with huge RoI. This thing, I  have mentioned in my previous article “Dedicate to Continuous Learning”.  It is said Money earned can be lost but knowledge earned cannot be  lost.One must have a well defined reading list. 

I am noting here five books for entrepreneurs : 

1. The Greatness Guide By Robin Sharma

2. Managing Time of Your Life By Machen MacDonald

3. The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind By Dr Joseph Murphy

4. How to Win Friends and Influence People By Dale Carnegie

5. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People By Stephen R. Covey

The word “Entrepreneur” first came up in 1723 in French dictionary Dictionnaire Universel de  Commerce compiled  by Jacques des Bruslons. Now a days Entrepreneurship is a common word.  It is generally referred as process of starting and running a business. With study of factors of production in economics, the term is well stressed on. The 4 factors are

With this, the usage of term increased manifold. In modern context  the usage of word is quite different. Now a days this is used as synonym  of business. However in real context this word has wider coverage. This  also covers another term used ‘Startups”. All startups are a part of  Entrepreneurship.

Entrepreneurship is art, science and commerce all together. This is  bootstrapping in real sense. You have do everything right from opening  to closing of office. 

Overall entrepreneurship is hard but fascinating journey !
