He said that in the current digital era some people are doing businesses while others are providing consultancy but the prime objective should be to excel in any field where you are.
Commenting on the golden student age, he said that it is time for parents and He said that every student should have a mentor to seek guidance and inspiration from him during his practical life. He said that our mentor should be Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as by following his "Sunnah", we could achieve excellence in every walk of life.
He said that students with business backgrounds could become successful entrepreneurs easily but in another case the students should make extra efforts to achieve excellence as a successful businessman. He said that students should start their businesses at a small level, take risks and gradually expand their businesses according to the given circumstances and ground realities.
