Why considering starting your own business?
Not in every stage of our life, we can take decisions that move us and the generation after us to a better condition. When working for corporate America, your future is not in your hands. Even by working harder and wiser, you may end up jobless due to downsizing or retired due to your age.
When you have your own business, YOU can decide on how far you can go. Even if you are not successful, you can get help from coaches, sales people, and experts to get back to the track. It will be up to YOU to decide on your success. You can make more money by putting more time and effort on your business or you can have a limited income by working less. You can make a job for someone you love and engage them or you can make a better life for them just by spending more money for them. It will be up to YOU to decide on that.
