Entrepreneurship Is for All People

Entrepreneurship Is for All People - There are many reasons for saying that. First, everyone has ideals, dreams, or at least hope to improve quality of life as a human. This is a kind of "intuition" that encourages people to work and try normal. "Intuition" is related with one of the potential of humanity, the power of creative imagination.

Humans are creatures of God who endowed power of imagination creative, so he can use it to think. That thought can be directed to the past, present, and future. By thinking, he can look for answers to important questions such as: Where I come from? Where I am right now? And Where I'll go? And what shall I pass on to the world?

Searching for a personal history of the past can give an idea about one's strengths and weaknesses. In it there are a number of life experiences, obstacles and difficulties we've ever faced and how do we fix it, failure and success, pleasure and tenderness, and so forth. However, because everything has gone, then not much else that can be done to change all that. We must accept it and give it a meaning and put it right in a perspective of the present and future.

Tell the real situation today where we are, what we have, what we do not have, what we enjoy and what not can we enjoy is. What are the duty and our responsibility and what who become our birthright as human beings, and so forth? With aware of our existence today, we can be grateful or complain, we can be complacent or determine the next target, and so on.

The future is hopeful, at least not so proper for those who believe. If we had an unpleasant past and still find themselves in situations and conditions that have not been in accordance with the ideals of or our dreams, it is reasonable if we expect future better, brighter, more fun. For as long as Future, all possibilities are still wide open.

It is clear that the past, present, and future related with our imagination. And in the days that all obstacles (Obstacle), difficulty (hardship), and pleasure or joy (very rewarding life) mixed into one. So, if Poppy King, young entrepreneur from Australia said that the three things that faced by an entrepreneur in any field, and then is not it means that entrepreneurship is for everyone? Who is man in this earth who have never faced obstacles and difficulties for achieve the ideals and dreams?

4 Key Factors to Business Success

By Jenna Drew

Creating and running a successful business that is profitable is not for the faint of heart. People say that between 47% - 50% of small business will fail within the first 90 days, so the numbers are not in your favor either. In my opinion, these numbers are just there to fade out the uncommitted. Most people see those numbers and think they don't have a chance, but think about it, how many people take risks on probabilities a lot worse than 50-50?

Have you ever played the lottery? Now, that is definitely not a 50-50 chance! Building a successful business is not a game of chance as long as you set yourself up for success by having a plan. It is not always necessary to write a 45-page business plan. Usually, a simple report on how you will create revenue is the best way to begin without being held down by a full business plan.

Here are four key areas to focus on when you're building your business for success:

1. Become very clear about your business.

When you have a clear goal for your business, it is very easy to spot opportunities that will grow your business and opportunities that will simply waste your time. This may sound like a simple concept, but this is not always easy to implement. Your business clarity is what leads you to building an unstoppable brand, and your brand is what will set you and your business apart from your competition.

2. Select your niche market.

Achieving success is impossible unless you understand your customer. I recommend doing some in-depth research about your ideal consumer. What do they do? Where do they hang out? Specifically, where do they hang out online? What are their current wants and needs both personally and professionally? This is just a starting list of questions for you to consider about your target market. In my business, I've actually created a persona for my ideal customer. I call her "Samantha". She is a young professional between the ages of 23 - 30 who dreams of having her own business one day. Right now, she has a full-time job on the career path that she has been in since college graduation. She is very social media and internet savvy because she has grown up using the computer. She either has a young family or she will soon be starting a family, and she dreads leaving for work in the morning leaving her child at home with a babysitter or in day care. She wants to leave her corporate job to purse her dreams, but the allure of a steady paycheck is too strong for her. So, she wants to follow her dream of an online business, but she wants to start her business while still at her full-time job.

You might be thinking that this is way too specific. But, remember this is only my ideal client. If others outside of this target want to work with me and buy my products, then, of course, I'm not going to turn them away! Knowing and understanding the answers to these questions make creating my marketing strategy a breeze!

3. Create a marketing strategy.

Marketing is really an umbrella term for many small parts of the equation. Marketing involves your product, your price point, your promotions and even the way you package your products. I am grateful for my education and experience in the marketing industry. It has helped me grow my business beyond my imagination. When most business owners think of marketing, they think of advertising, but this is only a piece of the puzzle. You must develop a whole marketing strategy for your business, including advertising, networking, promotional events, article marketing, etc. Set yourself some marketing goals. I try to work one month ahead in my marketing plans. I set a goal number of press releases that I distribute to the media, how many media interview that I appear on, the number of articles that I submit to article directories, how many events I will attend (usually this is planned out a year in advance), how many speaking events that I will do, etc. When you have a structured plan it is a lot easier to be successful.

4. Find a mentor.

There are many meanings to the word mentor. A mentor can be someone that you know personally or someone you've never even met before. When I first started my business, I could not afford to hire a personal coach, so I got myself a library card, and I checked out a dozen books on individuals who have been successful building their own businesses and fortunes. Then I started buying products that my mentors created. Eventually, I started attending seminars that my mentors held. Although I still do not have a personal coach, I have my goal set to hire my mentor by September 2011. A mentor is simply someone who is further down the path that you want to go. They might be only 3 or 4 paces in front of you, or they may be already across the finish line, they have already accomplished what you want to accomplish.

Creating a successful business is not measured by the amount of revenue that you make. Yes, you must make enough money to follow your dreams, but the money is not the only important part of success. Success also lies in the amount of lives that you affect. Building an online business allows you the opportunity to change millions of lives around the world. Focus on these four key strategies to building a successful business, and you will be on the path towards success.

Entrepreneurship Tips

By Justin Timory

The speed at which the world produces entrepreneurs determines how well the general economy thrives. Entrepreneurs are the ones responsible for keeping our financial systems running despite the depression of currencies. Without entrepreneurs, without their businesses, without their products and services; there would be no market. Consequently, we wouldn't have any source of commodity or income. Hence, it is essential that we promote the creation and, above all, success of start up entrepreneurs. It's a good thing that entrepreneurship tips are available to nourish budding entrepreneurial aspirations.

Narrowing the search for helpful guidelines, here are some entrepreneurship tips that could help avert common entrepreneurship problems.

a. Do not underestimate what your employees can do for your business.

Maybe it's the position or a strong seniority complex that drives young entrepreneurs to neglect the vital contribution of their employees to their success. Yes, you created the company. Yes, you conceptualized the unique good or service being sold. And yes, it is your sound advice on marketing approaches that have attracted consumers to your company. But it is your employees that make sure your company is able to meet its obligations and provide the best goods and services to your clients. Without their talents and insights, you would not be able to maintain your obligations. So I am telling you to stop this practice and instead, constantly acknowledge your employees for their efforts. Give them proper incentives. Enroll them in trainings. Remember that your ultimate competitive advantage is the talent you are able to keep.

b. Do not abuse your workers.

Now, just because you pay them well, doesn't mean you have the right to control their lives. You can't force them to go on overtime every work day just so they can meet your expectations. You can't deprive them of holidays. You can't scold them for being absent because they are sick or because they had personal issues they needed to resolve. Recognize that your employees may have other priorities as well - a family, a second job, or school. Working at a start up company, which you've created, helps them get some additional cash. Whether it's more lucrative than their other priorities is another question entirely. Bottom line is, if you stress them out while working for you, then they might be forced to choose. This might just end badly for you.

c. Do not ignore what one customer says.

As a start up entrepreneur, it is natural for you to be obsessed with your customer's reactions. But when sales are going well and people generally have given positive feedback to your products and services, you will find your self less attuned to complaints and more so, to smaller client complaints. Don't! These people may not bring in the big bucks, but the can surely dish out comments that may very well pull down your credibility as a company. Whether big or small, ensure that you maintain the highest level of satisfaction for all your clients.

d. Do not oversell.

In hopes of impressing consumers, businessmen often promise more than what they can deliver. This puts them in a compromising position with clients and with their employees. The secret to selling is to be honest. Establish what customers can expect so that transactions do not end up in disappointments.

e. Do not neglect to keep record of all cash inflow and outflow.

The problem with start up entrepreneurs is that they are so caught up with the idea of profit. As a result they are deceived into thinking that they've earned more than they've spent. But the truth lies in the financial statements. Considered most vital among the entrepreneurship tips mentioned, start up entrepreneurs should be very vigilant at tracking their revenues and expenses. In addition, they should also be diligent at collecting payables. This is the only way they can confirm that their business is not losing.

Entrepreneurial Team

By Justin Timory

Jobs Vacancy, Job vacancies, Employment Jobs

Being a lone entrepreneur has its advantage. You have sole ownership of the company. You get all the profits. You exercise all the power. But along with this is the disadvantage of inheriting all the expenses and problems. Establishing an entrepreneurial team that is composed of at least three members simplifies and makes running a business more affordable.

Entrepreneurial teams are the current trend among start up entrepreneurs who want to penetrate a demanding market. Given that they have to dish out more capital and manage bigger operations, entrepreneurs find that they can be more effective as a group. Collaborative decision making by teams have proved to be more advantageous as biases are countered when making business decisions.

But then, the creation of a strong and successful entrepreneurial team can be tricky. Some entrepreneurs are less lucky at finding the most suitable partners and end up disheartened. If you are an aspiring entrepreneur looking to get associates, don't be afraid. Like most endeavors, there are ways to go about it so that you get the best results.

1. Recognize what talent/skill you need. Skill will lead you to the right person.
In business, you should not pair up with someone just because they are your family or your friends. This will give you little benefit and even loyalty is not ensured. Know what your needs are for the business you'd like to establish and base your partnership criteria on these. For example, if you want to put up a restaurant, you will need someone who cooks, someone you knows hotel and restaurant management and someone who can track finances. If you are the one who is familiar with accounting, then you have to partner up with a chef and with an HRM graduate that has accumulated extensive experience in his/her field. This is basic and should always be the first thing you consider for partnership.

2. Assess commitment.
When you have found the right person, find out to what level is his/her commitment to the business. There are working partners and absentee partners - I guess I don't have to explain which is more preferable to team with. Ultimately, teaming up requires people to work together in order to achieve a goal. If one member of the group does not participate, and is not willing to participate, then it's no use to have him/her as part of it.

3. Define responsibilities and profits.
As partners, all of you will share the responsibilities towards the business. To avoid overstepping or burdening each other, it's best to establish which responsibilities are carried out by who and which partner will take over in case the one responsible is absent. This will make your team more dynamic and more productive, as well as less vulnerable to power struggles. In addition, determine the shares that each member of the team gets from the income before the onset of the business.

These are just starters to building an entrepreneurial team. The rest of the steps are discovered along the way. Certain flexibilities and sacrifices may be required as the team matures. But if it is founded upon these three, it's hardly a possibility that the team will break.

Entrepreneurship Skills

By Justin Timory

The state of being an entrepreneur can be realized when one engages in profitable risks and creates something of value. Entrepreneurs are defined by their habit of innovating and redefining market trends and limits. Regardless of their heredity, their background, their exposures and what not; entrepreneurs are people who are able to develop new businesses and affect the over all condition of the global economy. Given this, it is obvious that being an entrepreneur is no joke. Aside from the stress of creating and running a business, the additional responsibility of being able to contribute something significant to society is given to them. Nevertheless, entrepreneurs do have the advantage of inheriting and learning entrepreneurship skills that would assist them in meeting those expectations.

These skills are abundant; some, more important than others. All of them, however, are needed for a person to fully mature as an entrepreneur. But there is no pressure though for any aspiring businessman to learn everything before he starts his venture. Most of these skills aren't even developed without experience. So it is expected that a start up entrepreneur is half prepared when he decides to pursue his field. But then again, there are abilities innate in human beings that can be very helpful when starting out as entrepreneurs.

A. Self Awareness
This ability basically denotes having a sense of one's self and knowing what one's strengths, weaknesses and biases are. This is pretty important for entrepreneurs as this helps them sort out through personal rubble and come up with informed and reasonable decisions. Though this skill is inborn, some businessmen have difficulty to apply it in their lives. Usually, they are so overwhelmed by other people's influences that their own beliefs and preferences are forgotten. Those who would are inclined to approach problems in another way are forced to adhere to conventions because their self awareness is not strong enough to contradict. If you are able to invoke personal understanding and appreciation of your own tendencies, you can better your self, better your entrepreneurship approaches and ultimately prepare your self for absorbing other essential entrepreneurship skills.

B. Ingenuity
Ingenuity here is not only the ability to think of out of the box. It also means being able work out one's way to the achievement of a goal despite limitations. Ingenuity is adapted by entrepreneurs when they create a unique service or good and when they find alternative (and feasible) ways to solve problems. But entrepreneurs should not assume that ingenuity ends with them. Part of learning and applying this skill is recognizing the ideas of others. This is how they come about creating the best business solutions and ideas.

C. Love
Few consider this entrepreneurship skill important. But actually, this ensures a more harmonious, accomplished and long lasting business. Love means seeing potential in people. It means being able to create a nurturing environment for your employees and co-workers. Love means being able to bring out the best from those around you. Entrepreneurs who are able to love are able to create worthwhile goods and services, give a greater impact to society, have loyal and well-trained employees and finally, keep devoted customers.

Key to Balanced Success

By Uzo Onukwugha


Jobs Vacancy, Job vacancies, Employment Jobs

Your heart condition is the most important determinant of your authority and destiny on planet earth. This is because your spirit nature is the foundation and essence of your being and existence. Everything within and without you rises or falls depending on how you program your spirit-nature. The human spirit is like your hard drive Just as the hard drive drives every data in the computer, your heart runs the affairs of your life. The computer hard drive stores information in the form of electromagnetic energy. The same applies to your spirit man. Therefore this repository of energy can create, attract or lead you to whatever your core desire is or whatever you are programming for life. Everything in life is created first in the invisible world of the spirit before it materializes in the natural world of matter. In the same way, God has placed eternity in the hearts of men. "As it is within, so is it without," says an Oriental maxim. Some people call this the law of correspondence.

The key to success is being (what you become) which will determine doing (or what you do) and have (what you possess). Success, therefore is the ability of a trained spirit to dominate the body through a renewed mind. And the Holy Spirit dominating the human spirit which is now free to create. Genius is nothing but the Spirit of God working in an open and programmed heart. Thus, your heart condition is the core of your success quest. By the way, know that you can train your human spirit just like you can develop your intellect or your muscles. You grow on what you feed on. Therefore, the best way to develop the human spirit is by using the Word of God and performing spiritual exercises outlined below.

Here are five cardinal ways to train your human spirit:

Meditation--This is akin to storing and rehearsing the Word of God in your mind again and again. It is like planting the seeds of God's thought in your heart and let your consciousness grow it. This is like the cow chewing the cod. Take five to ten minutes thinking over the word of God especially the areas that is related to your goal. Find Scriptures that relate to your challenges and soak yourself with the ideas of God concerning those areas. Do it at least twice a day--morning and night. In meditation, God talks to you but in prayer, you talk to God. Whatever you program into your heart is what comes out of your mouth.

Positive confessions--After charging and activating the word by meditation, it is time to speak it out. You only change situations when you first speak to it. That's how God created the universe by the law of spoken word. Confession or affirmation is the most powerful way of turning your faith loose. Your self-confidence, personal power, self-direction and achievement start with words. It is also your words that conditions your spirit and renews your mind. This is because spirits respond to sound energy with emotions. Every time you say the same thing you reinforce success language. There are two types of confessions: auto suggestion and proclamations. Auto-suggestion is the conversation or running commentary between you and your spirit. This is unconscious programming beyond human awareness. The conscious one is the speech everybody hears from your mouth. Confessing what you want is the beginning of deliberate creation.

Prayer--Prevailing prayer is the life wire or the breath of human existence. The best prayer that gets result is praying God's Word concerning you back to Him. Prayer is the most powerful 'atomic energy' known to man. The human spirit soars in the place of intensive prayer. It is one of the most powerful way to release energy and supercharge your spiritual battery. Prayer is how you generate power, attract grace, provision and protection from the Almighty. Effective prayer is prayer that gets results. Praying the word of God in the spirit is the most effective, direct and powerful form of prayer. It is like building your spirit 'building your spirit brick by brick.'

Fasting--This is another powerful way to build your human spirit. You must live a fasted life if you must see success with your fasting. The flesh and its desires are what causes our failures. When the spirit dominates as in fasting, there is increased business intuition, revelation knowledge,opportunity awareness, money making ideas, creativity, breakthroughs, protective aura, favors, and breaking of demonic strongholds and bad habits. Thus, roadblocks to success are removed. Fasting brings the body under subjection and let's the spirit nature dominate. When the cravings of the mortal body go down, the spirit gains ascendency. "A praying believer is a confident believer; but a fasting believer is an overcoming believer," says Mahesh Chavda.

Praise and worship--Worship is the reason of our being. That's why God created man in the first place. The human spirit soars in the place of worship. We are transformed in His Image at the altar of worship. Human are judged in God's scale of preference according to their capacity to worship. Worship is the shortest distance between your breakthrough and God's throne. In praise, you extol the Lord for what He does; but in worship, you ascribe worth or value to God for what He is over your life. Worship is the most powerful way of cultivating a heart of gratitude. In God's presence is the fullness of joy and in his right hand is pleasures forevermore. "When you cultivate His presence, you enjoy His pleasures." This is called practising the presence of God or developing God's consciousness. Because God does things in dimensions, there are two types of God's presence in any believer. The Holy Spirit presence is the abiding presence and the one that comes and goes is the shekinar glory. There is no true worshipper of God that lacks anything. And those who know this does not trade worship for any silver or gold. Overall, prosperity always flows from a heart of gratitude which in turn determines your altitude.

Practicing the word--Application of what you meditate on is what brings manifestation or results. One of the most important ways to get power is in doing, not meditating or talking about it. "It is the law of nature that those who do have the power and those who don't have no power," says Waldo Emerson. When you take action you get satisfaction. Your thoughts create your desire but it is your action that brings it to you. Taking action is the most powerful way of programming the human spirit for success. The Word only works when you work it. Doing nothing is sure way of going nowhere. When your trained spirit ask you to do something, do it immediately. In the spirit realm and in life, timing can be everything. Business is all about opportunity and opportunity hinges on time. Money always flows to where there is opportunity. This is why taking action is critical to manifestation as the law of attraction kicks in.

If you can apply these cardinal steps, success in any endeavor is assured. Often, you have to combine the steps if you must train your spirit quicker for immediate result. You must have a goal to direct the above named psycho-spiritual exercises.

How To Get A Free Education

By Al Lifeson

Jobs Vacancy, Job vacancies, Employment Jobs

Before I started writing articles I did a lot of research. Even got a book or two about it. All in all, it was a total waste of time and money.

I am sure many people are so scared to write the first article it never gets done. As with just about any other way to make money on the internet, people avoid actions because they fear the consequences.

The most common excuse it "I can't write". All I have to say to that is if you can speak it you can write it. In fact, you should speak it before your write it.

No matter what you learn before you start writing articles, it will pale in comparison to what you learn while you are writing them and watching the results come in.

It doesn't matter what kind of job you get, you have to go through training. And for me, on the job training is the only thing worthwhile. There is no substitute for experience.

If you are considering writing articles to promote your web site or product, but feel you are not up to the task, let me assure you a firm commitment to writing 100 articles relating to the product of your choice will provide you a complete education in the field of article marketing.

You will probably even get paid a little bit while you learn if you pick a worthy product.

Don't worry about the first few failing articles. Remember the Matrix when Neo tried to jump across the buildings for the first time. Everybody said "Nobody makes it the first time". And they were right.

Even the best has to start somewhere. And usually it is with a poorly written and failing article. But with the courage to write the first article and the dedication to write the 100th, you will receive an education that will allow you to write your own ticket to making money online.
