India TV NewsNew Delhi, June 4: "Be crazy and don't seek too much advice on what you propose to do", this is the mantra that Michael Dell, the man who founded the world's third largest PC making company, has given to budding entrepreneurs in India to become successful. ".entrepreneurs I think have to be a little bit crazy, at least in the eyes of others," Dell, who is also the CEO of of the company, said.Successful entrepreneurs will be those who venture to do what others will not; if it's "obvious", every one would do it, he said in an interaction here, hosted by IT industry body NASSCOM with hundreds of start-ups in attendance, late last evening.He said he never sought lot of advice because if he had gone and asked people what he was about to do and work, they would have told him it wouldn't work and dissuaded him from taking up the venture. "Most of the employment and innovation is also happening in the SMB space, which is also the largest market in the world, he said adding that it is "great time to be entrepreneur".On the company's experience of doing business in India, he said it has been growing quite rapidly but remarked: "Market like India tends to be fairly dynamic and somewhat volatile. ".it's like three steps forward, one step backward; two steps forward, four steps backward; three steps forward, one step backward, four steps forward, two steps backward.
