Quotes
Rajesh Sharma
Author of The Impossible Startup and ProHance co-founder
“The startup journey is often described in three stages: impossible, improbable, and inevitable—each representing the gradual shift from belief to traction. The 'impossible' stage represents the 0 to $1 million revenue phase, where the startup is just an idea fighting for its existence, with only the founders truly believing in it.”

“People who walk this path—founders and entrepreneurs—are, in reality, no different from anyone else. Sometimes, we tend to think these individuals are somehow blessed or naturally gifted... But that’s not the truth. In reality, they are very ordinary and simple people, just like anybody else.”
