The following are four ways to be a modern entrepreneur:

Cease every opportunity to learn

Learning is an activity that continues throughout one’s lifetime, an entrepreneur grows his venture easier and achieve more success if he/she acquires adequate information and utilize them accurately.

How does this reduce the cost of Garri?

What annoys me is we have so many billionaires in this country !

How many bags of garri do they donate to their states

Rubbish

Yahoo boys be filling like entrepreneurs...

wow

These days they are so many admonitions on becoming an entrepreneur. In fact if you don't have anything doing, you'd look like a failure. Everyone is talking about being self employed.

The question is who would work for you?

I'm not saying the modern entrepreneurship trend is bad o, but people should stop berating those that work under someone.

...

Nice point..

Just like I'm at #SMWLagos2018

We all needs to keep learning , Learn more and unlearn

As an entrepreneur you also need a website for your business. One that's optimized for search engine and one that can convert

Aside that you top notch digital skills to be able to pull through at this age.

If you don't dream to end up broke, take a path to entrepreneurship. It doesn't stop you from being an employee. I know a lot of employees who also have side businesses and investments that brings in another stream of income. Being an employee alone is not enough if you must survive and be financially free.

Walking towards that

I totes agree with you.

But the way some of these people make it seem. Like being an employee is a grave sin.

In my own opinion speaking from thorough experience being an employee with the structure of our society lately is a total slavery. 90% of employees are just pretending everything is fine funny enough they aren't. I'm a huge advocate of self employment but before u pursue that dream of entrepreneurship,,, garner more knowledge regarding what you are moving into.

99% of our societal employment is nothing but a masked slavery.

We still have rich slaves and broke kings....but a fierce king is never broke...#Chew on that

Nice one op. More grease. Those that the message is not for will still come and comment, even trying to open the floor for a debate, nawao

God bless you for this op.... I am a typical example of an entrepreneur and what else Can I say than it pays�..... throughout my university days, my mind wasn’t on working Under anyone , all I set my mind on is to work for myself, as I speak I don’t know how to put CV together, after my NYSC I took up my life I place it in my hands to shape and determine what my life will become.... Thanks to God am a young but successful Fashion Designer and a Fashion consultant... cuz I never wait for no one and I know what I want to become is deeply within me.....

I share your anger bro.
I wonder why its difficult for these so called rich people to help their communities without ulterior motives. Its a clear indication that there's no love in the county despite the heavy religious involvement.

that picture is always painted by Neo life representative. GNLD

Gone are the days when not having funds to buy books was a limiting factor, now na to select remain. You are only limited by your willingness to want to learn.

Bro forget religion, its just a way to channel the emotions and manipulate the masses... This Government has made me regret calling GEJ a buffoon, though GEJ does remain the king of buffoons but at the end of the day this government has fail

Being an entrepreneur is not the problem who will lend you the money to start that business you want to open, if you ask anybody who claim to be a successful entrepreneur how he made his money what he or she will tell you is that is God ooooo. Did God came down to give to give you money?

Recessions and Periods of ailing economy are the best time for entrepreneurs to create a lasting business but unfortunately no be by mouth o. Some go in it for the wrong reasons or unprepared, some have the talent and value but dont have focus maybe due to an unstable personal life and external events. Its just soo dammn hard in this damned country.
