When you go through serious of training on how to become a successful entreprenuer, fear will be the list of you problem. With every business, there are risks, some risks are just smaller than some. I realize most of us go into business cos it's our passion, a business can't thrive by passion alone. It thrives by ideas too. When the risks arises and fear comes, it's those ideas that will keep the business going. That's why you need to understand your business properly. If it's services you wanna be rendering, it's needs in depth understanding. Everyone goes into business with the aim of profit making. In some business, you can start making profits in 3 months while in others you need to keep pumping in money for the next 6-1year. That's why it's good to have a target market before starting up. Understand the needs of people around you and create ways of putting your business out there through advertisement or one on one intros. When you do things right, even when fear comes in. You won't have a problem of failing and starting again. If you don't fail, you can't succeed. A timid person can never be rich. Keep the state of the economy aside, people still have needs, and it's the duty of an entrepreneur to meet the needs of the customers. 5 Likes |

PBundles: I do not agree with you. Anyone can do business. However some personalities are naturally better at it. Know yourself. That's the number one rule. Work on the areas where you are deficient or outsource these areas. Keep on learning from mistakes. People limit themselves with that "business is not for everyone" crap. 1 Like |

DirtyGold: with your words i remember the words of "napoleon hills when he said the best time to start is now, either or not you are ready because if you await a favorable time you will end up never starting. i suggest you should go to youtube and see interviews of wealthy nigerians and see how often they fail. he who has never failed has never tried anything. learn how to use the economy to your advantage than to complain about it. so true are the words of mother theresa of calcata when she said "when you enter a dark room, instead of complaining about the darkness, strive to lite up a candle and tell others in the room to do the same. in a short while the entire room will be engulf in light and darkness will no longer have house in it". failure must come bro. learn from it and move on. 3 Likes |

importexpert: A dream economy will never come, not in a couple of years. We still have better hope than the Venezuelans who relied so much on the oil money. If you put good business plans in place, you will run a successful business. The problem with us is, we have low self esteem when it's comes to doing business and our mindset is zero. A negative mindset can not run a successful business. No be jazz! |

importexpert:Bro, I didnt start now neither am I looking to start now because I started around 2010 and I understand what the journey has been like. I also know and work with those who started in 'this' economy and what they are facing... Motivation has its place but reality is superior. So, I guess it is left to those reading to figure out how to juxtapose the inspiration from this thread and how much their appetite for risk is. Besides, success 'stories' are sweeter when told by successful people because you only hear about an elaborate narration of every bit of 'hardship' they experienced while they willfully leave out what was going well for them especially the resources, people and support they had. And my point is, be realistic, properly examine the bulshit that might be driving you and always remember that doing business is an investment and there are no guarantees especially as a startup. If anyone is discouraged by my lil talk, it simply means, that that idea and the drive to see a business succeed is not mature enough and I just saved you from a failed business.

Standing5: dangote, dantata, otedola, all our indigenous banks and other successful businesses are all aware of such pitfalls. their difference with you is that they saw it as a challenge they must tackle and defeat and you see it as an obstacle that will not allow you to do anything. 1 Like |

We can agree to disagree that is fine, but im not talking from hearsay, Im talking from pure experience having met many business men and billionaires from all walks of life as well as teaching them. Anyone can understand business (theory) but to actually do it is a whole different ball game. The problem is that people put to much emphasis on it. If you dont have it, you dont have it. There are leaders and there are followers, its just that simple. karaka: 1 Like |

People should be wary of fake profiles on this thread "motivating" people... Nothing separates this guys from GNLD scammers! Investing your money into importation right now is like dashing government money. Because you will buy dollars at high price from them, bring in goods at costly price, pay import duties at costly price and take it to the final consumers... Who are finding it hard to feed... Not to talk of buying imported materials! Be warned! 1 Like |

importexpert: Not everyone can be an entrepreneur. The underlying factor that differentiates entrepreneurs from the average Joe is the ability to see problems as opportunities. Wherever there is a problem lies the need for a solution. Whoever can come up with solution and attaches a price for the solution ultimately benefits from the problem. The irony is that those who complain about the problem are the ones who eventually pay for the solution. 3 Likes |

Dear Nigerians, there's nothing wrong in public service/civil "servanting"... The decaying public sector/infrastructure won't fix itself...but who will, when everyone is busy entrepreneuring/self-employing Entrepreneurship is not for everyone. Good evening. |
