Last week, I tasted a green tea mango mousse for dessert. The first mental reaction to the combination was “how can these two go together?” And “will it be a wrong choice coz of its weirdness?”



I checked with the waitress to confirm if the combination is good. She did “sell” the product as “weird but very popular”.

Anyways, I decided to experiment eating it and yes, I loved it! It was not too sweet and the flavors of green tea and mango were distinctly felt due to the layers.

Coming to Entrepreneurship, sometimes the weirdest combinations will produce the best results. We never know. It’s all about trying and experimenting!

In business, following conventions is easy. But, breaking conventional wisdom and finding newer synapses to derive new products is indeed the most exciting journey of an entrepreneur!

So, here is a reminder for your startup journey:

-Be open to crazy combinations – they might just surprise you!
-Don’t be afraid to break conventional wisdom and try new things.
-Experimentation is key to innovation.
-Sometimes, the weirdest combinations produce the best results.

So, don’t be afraid to be unconventional!

Your business might just need a “Green Tea Mango Mousse” moment.
