For a long time in my life I never started a business. I always
thought about it but never started it.
Then I wasted my time going to school, learning courses I
know I will not need. Doing what others wish me to do.
Somehow, I know they're wrong and I am right. Somehow I know
that if I don't like a course, I shouldn't learn it. It will
be more efficient if all of us learn what we'll be good at.
Somehow, I know that the reasons why I have to do homeworks
are not so I become smart, but because others do not want
me to move too fast so they ensure that everyone moves at
the same speed in governments' regulated education.
Somehow, I know, that I know what's good for me.
Yet, I had not been rich. Because I hadn't taken any action
about it. I just complained about it, but still follow the
scripts that societies want me to do.
Then finally it happened. One friend I helped taught me a
simple business.
It's a stupid business. I buy products from shops at customers
price, and then sell it on eBay for a slight profit.
Bad business plan. Bad business. It went belly up within 2
months with thousands of dollars lost. All the little profit
don't make up the losses when one thief stole my properties.
But you know what? Though moneywise I lost money, I get something
from that business that none of my thinking, complaining,
and fidgeting has given me for years. I got something so valuable
that it's what got me rich.
That valueable thing is business experience and the only way
anyone will ever get it is by doing it.
From that business experience, I know stuffs that only I know.
I learn that there are more money in information than in goods
itself, for example.
Then I modify my business and start other businesses again.
A multimillionare that I consider a teacher taught his student:
Believe, Courage, Action.
Calculations are good. However, the richest among us are not
necessarily the most calculative. Those who will become rich
are those with guts to take action and some calculated risk.
When we take action, the first thing we do, we won't get things
perfectly right. And that's fine. We got experience. That's
what we're getting. After all those experience, we'll then
discover ways to find out what works.
There are so many things that theoretically will work and
make money in business. You know what?
If everybody knows it will work, either you'll have a lot
of competitors, or you'll have envy bigots blocking the method
somehow.
The perk of trying it yourself and learning from experience
is that you know something only you know will work. That's
a huge plus.
There is only one way to know whether things that theoretically
work will actually work or not with huge assurance. You try
it. If it works, then you make money. If it doesn't work then
you'll get experience.
So if you've been thinking of doing a business for too long.
Here's an advice for you. Just do it. Just do it.
Now of course life is about balance. Experience can be very
expensive. I lost $3500 for a fraud. It cost me countless
time and money to get that vermin to jail. So yeah, you should
learn from others and be calculative too. However, for most
of you that never even tried a business, here's an advice.
Just do it.
Start a small business. Start from something you'll know will
work. Then build confidence and experience from there. When
you get more natural confidence and experience, then start
doing it bigger. The best way to get confidence is to be succesful
in smaller scales first. So stop thinking and start doing
it, even in small steps.
I make a small internet business tutorial anyone can try in
http://fasterfinancialfreedom.com/?id=449
That alone is not going to get you rich. That kind of
info is unlikely to be free.
However, it costs very little money for domain name and advertising.
It's something you can try. It's the sort of thing that my
friend has given me, a small business tutorial, that I want
to give to you.
Give it a try and see what you'll discover. At the least,
you'll know whether business is for you or not.
Money goes to its own level. The only way you'll get richer
is if you're smarter and more connected. That requires you
to keep trying and learning new things. Keep trying.
Whatever the mind can conceive, the mind can achieve.
Keep trying, keep planning, keep learning, and keep being
open minded. And just do it. Eventually, you'll be there where
you want yourself to be. And never give up.
