Why many businesses fail even though they started well

 I was studying why many businesses fail even though they started well. In America, 50% of small businesses fail within 5 years, 70% fail within 10 years. 82% of business failures are due to cash flow problems. Many of these businesses fail despite doing very well financially. Surprisingly, the reason for this is the psychological suicide of entrepreneurs, which is called entrepreneurial hand grenadeing. That is, when Lakshmi is at its peak in their business, they throw a hand grenade there and destroy it. When we suddenly earn a lot of money, enjoy a lot of comfort, and gain a lot of respect. Then we get a life that we never dreamed of, which our fathers and grandfathers never imagined. Then the subconscious part of our mind evaluates this unimaginable impossible situation as a danger. The subconscious mind is disturbed by this unimaginable 'abnormality'. Then the subconscious mind makes the mind restless to destroy this achievement, causes deviation from the goal, and induces us to destroy our own achievement.

According to psychoanalyst Gustav Jung, there is something in our subconscious that holds a habitual sense of judgment and always teases the conscious mind about it when it deviates. No matter how beautiful and attractive a woman is, she thinks that she is not good (according to a statistic in America, 80 percent of women think that they are not good), she cannot be happy with a good man. Her mind starts causing various unnecessary troubles. Even these women who think of themselves as bad prefer the company of bad men and feel comfortable being with them because they think that it will be equal. The bad one is worse than the one who will not face judgment by him.

So what is the solution to this hand bomb problem of sudden achievement? The ancient Indians found a solution to this, which is the social class system. Whatever work someone does in society, their descendants will do it in their families. Brahmins will be hereditary priests and teachers; Kshatriyas will be rulers and warriors; Vaishyas will do agriculture, business, and shopkeeping; Shudras will do manual labor, and Dalits will clean up sewage and waste. Although this classification violates human rights and the Constitution, it was certainly created to solve this hand bomb problem of sudden wealth.

This hand bomb problem of sudden wealth also arises in politics. Those who are not from political families by family, who have never learned how to behave normally when they come into possession of a lot of money and power, will explode this hand bomb of sudden wealth and give away the freedom they brought at the cost of the lives of millions of people.
