I am not a big fan of asking people to leave their jobs and become entrepreneurs, surely it is not possible for everyone to become an entrepreneur some will become entrepreneurs and others will become employees it is as simple as that, the race of entrepreneurship is not cut out for everyone it is only cut out for selected individuals. Besides there are people who love their jobs and whose life is much better when they are with a job than when they become entrepreneurs so there is no reason to make everyone feel like they need to quit their jobs and become entrepreneurs.
It is very important that either you are an entrepreneur or a normal 09:00-05:00 worker, you have some financial goals and plans that you work with to make your future much more promising and rewarding and it is very possible that while you keep your usual 09:00am -05:00pm job, you find other means of gaining income and that is what we usually regard as multiple income streams which is a basic necessity either you are a full time employee or a business owner.
Learning to outsource is a pretty important skill.
You might not get all the time on your hands to get every task done but you can easily get an easy job offer and look for someone who is pretty good at getting the task done to help you with the task, that way just by connecting two people one who needs to get a job done and the other who is really good at doing the job, you can save up some few bucks for yourself aside from your monthly salary.
Sell items that are known.
You know that while you work 09:00-05:00pm everyday it means that you have less time on your hands to do other things but you can use your spare time to sell some items that will add profits to you, but since you do not have much time on your hands to advertise a new product, it will be better to work with something that is already existing and will be easier to sell.
Get engaged in something that can be properly done in your absence.
While keeping your job you need to train someone who will be able to take over the full task of the job while you are away at work, the type of business you want to start is the one that can allow another person work for you while you are busy dealing with your office duties.
