Gaining experience and skills is essential for success. As a student, focus on building these skills. If you want to start as an entrepreneur, consider internships to gain valuable experience. You'll also need a team, so connect with like-minded classmates who share your goals.
Great ideas often come from experience and time, but you can also find them through observation and analysis. Seek opportunities that match your budget and capabilities. Identify areas for improvement and that is where you will find your 'idea'. Remember, anything is possible, but it may not always be easy. Embrace failure as a learning opportunity and keep trying. Success comes from perseverance.

Congratulations on beginning your BTech journey! If you dream of starting your own company, working at an early-stage startup can be a great way to learn quickly. You'll get to see how different parts of a business work together, which is different from working in a big company where you focus on one role.
In a startup, you might work on many things like product development, talking to customers, and solving problems. This experience can be really helpful if you want to start your own business someday. It’s important to be comfortable with uncertainty and ready to learn new things.
I would focus on building skills like creating products, solving important problems, talking to users, and understanding how businesses work. These skills will be useful whether you join a startup, work for a big company, or start your own business.
Good luck on your future and your entrepreneurial journey!

Best wishes on pursuing BTech! You sound like you have a lot of passion and thirst for ideas; that's wonderful!
Focus on learning the craft well, asking good questions and learning all that you can. You'll use that to shape your perfect idea. Keep in mind that the perfect idea solves a real problem, but perhaps in a unique or novel way. Henry Ford once said that if he were to ask consumers what they want they'd say they want faster horses. He insightfully saw the need behind that ask and built automobiles to address the underlying need.
Startups require a lot more than just the perfect idea. They require funding and business savvy, timing and luck. Consider gaining some experience first working at an established company (it could be a small one) or at a startup.
Good luck!
