Steemit Engagement Challenge S9W5 : Are you ready to become an entrepreneur ?

Hello everyone here. Its great to be able to share with you today, my views on this contest about being an entrepreneur.

Being an entrepreneur is something that interests me so much. In fact, I can say that I've been an entrepreneur all my life, I have worked my life to be able to provide so much for my family.

An Entrepreneur

As we know, an entrepreneur is someone who works to start a business, or a person who actually owns a business of his own.
The business may be as little as anything, it can be retail, fishing 🎣, manufacturing, or any other.
An entrepreneur is an independent person in that he owns he own his own business and works for himself.

I have worked in many areas of business, working for myself. I once owned a big shop where I was selling some drinks and household provisions.
In fact all my life I have been an entrepreneur but my products or business have varied.
Currently I buy my own goods from the wholesalers and retail them in different markets.

Carrying my own good

My while life I have worked as an entrepreneur and not for any boss. And I'm happy with what I have achieved with it.

My motivation for being an entrepreneur is tha it works very well for me, and I don't have to be in control of any one.
Also I can have all the profit all to myself, and I can have what to provide for my children.

An entrepreneur must have patience to deal with the customers, because most times the customers can be annoying but we have to treat them well.
Also the entrepreneur must be able to care for his business, and be able to repair any damages done. He should be able to endure loss sometimes because that's how business is. You can either gain or loose.

My dream business

For now I wish to have my own store for selling household provisions and to reduce travelling so much.
If i can have my own shop I'll be able to reduce stress. I want the shop situated in a very nice location where people will be able to patronize my business.

In my ship I'll also be selling household provisions, ingredients for food because people buy them a lot.
Also I want to be selling rice, beans, garri, flour in bags and to become a wholesaler, i will also be selling in retail. I have done this type of business before when my first husband was still alive, for now I don't have much money to do it, but I hope to achieve it soon.

A little story

I still want to use the story of myself.
At the time I Had my shop and I lost my husband I was able to work from my shop as an entrepreneur to train my six little children and today im happy thag they have grown to support me in many ways.

I am proud of being an entrepreneur and I encourage everyone to learn to work for themselves.

I invite @patjewell, @inspiracion, @josepha to participate in the contest.
