Business Advice

-- Quote of the Day --

“…If you stay on your shore, you will never discover other shores. …Why is it that you want to go into business? ...It is during these times of times of economic changes that we see an increase of self-employed businesses. …You might need to test the waters while you work full or part time. …Don’t wait until everything is just right; it will never be perfect - there will always be challenges and cycles. …You just have to take the step and let go of the fear.”  

~ Victor Kwegyir

Today's quote comes from an interview that aired back on June 9:  From Dream to Self-Employment
