Hello guys, so yesterday I managed to visit a friend. Yeah managed cos I had thought i wouldn't make it to the place. I woke up real late, not that I was going to be late but this affected my rhythm for the day and I had to so so many readjustments so that I'll fit her in my schedule for the day. My schedule? Eat and sleep, that was the plan, so my friend basically came in between, eat-vist a friend-sleep lol.
I saw something interesting there, a fish pond. Do you know what this means, a business and a cool source of extra income for her. I can literally call Nneoma a money freak, that girl is relentless when it comes to paper chasing, damn. She has a host of other means by which she gets money from, consistently and then she has added another one. This goes a long way to show why the rich keeps getting richer, they keep increasing their streams of income.
I'm actually a fan of agriculture, the livestock section actually and I've been looking to start up something in that area, Fishery. For a while now, I've had that burden in my mind that keeps reminding me, like its my calling and then there's the second voice that does what it does.
I've made inquiries about the business and what I should be expecting, the hurdles, ups and downs, the expenses to be incurred and the profits to be made. Many didn't really talk much about the profit I'll make, they simply said it depends on me and the pricing of my products. But they stressed a whole lot about the feeding of the animals, I think that's the major hurdle.
I may just be avoiding starting up something because I'm afraid. No I'm not afraid of the costs or how I'll take care of the fishes but my fear is this; what if its not successful? You know, I don't want to join the band wagon of those who start and fail due to some reasons best know to them, I want something successful. To suppress the fears, I easily distract myself with 'knowledge getting'. I use this as my excuse for not starting yet, I've not gained enough knowledge about the business.
It may be true that I don't have all the knowledge about the business but I think I have just enough to get me off the ground. I can start up something with the little I have and then learn as I go on. Will that be a good idea or should i keep gaining knowledge?
What if its successful? Don't you want to know what it feels like, even if you fail? Failure shouldn't be an excuse and even if you fail, that not the end keep on trying. Nneoma became a motivational speaker and believe me I was inspired. I wanted to start mine that very instant but hol up, how much will it cost me to start? Not that she called a price too great to pay, but I didn't have such there and then, lol. I could Hussle for it this month, let see how it goes.
In the end, I really loved what she did and looked at her in awe as she gave me some tips and tricks of the business and the business world in general. Wow! The girl is good, thank God she's my friend.
