Kanika Tekriwal

"There really is nothing in the world that can stop you from achieving what you want… nothing but your own self-limiting thoughts"

"To me success is about being able to sleep without a worry. And I say this because peaceful sleep is the hardest to achieve today. Success is also being able to look at myself in the mirror with pride and be happy with what I am doing."

"I always say there is no one who can understand what exactly you are going through. So, one should not look for external gratification, motivation or validation. If there is something you want to do in your life, you have to do it for yourself."

"Fifty years ago, most people could not afford cars. Today a majority of people can. I think the sky is the next big place where there’s going to be a lot of things happening. I want to make air taxis a reality. I want to be able to take people from their homes to their offices in air taxis."

"As for her message for wannabe women entrepreneurs, Kanika says the first step for them is to assume that most things in their lives are negotiable and they must not settle for whatever they are offered. They need not accept the status quo as fixed and rigid."
