Starting a new business, like jumping without parachute
By Erny Setyawati
Robby Kyosaki, the writer of “Rich Dad and Poor Dad” said that
starting a new business, like jumping without parachute. We have to create parachute
and try to repair in order to be saved to the ground. If we are failed to create
parachute, it have to be failed and death. There are two choices after starting
a new business, success or failed. We have to improve and create innovation
in order to defense our business stay long between a lot of competitors or getting
up quickly after failing. Bill Gates dropped out from Harvard University when
he was making decision to start Microsoft with his friend Buddy Allen. His decision,
made his parents depressed and disappointed. He had to face bitterness in his
first project because of failure. He tried to get up and never give up. People
world wide never imagine that Bill Gates started his Microsoft Company from
his tiny computer in the small room. Live is unpredictable and full of challenges.
We have to be ready facing it and have strategies to start it,
1.Have attitude to attain success
Mental entrepreneurs have to be ready to loose and win. We have to prepare to be success or failed. Do not be desperate when we are failed and ready to start again.
Thomas Alfa Edison that had found electricity said that failure was not failure.
Failure was learning time, made evaluation and starting again. Without failure,
one never knows their fault.
The new entrepreneurs always blame that the capital caused of business success
and failed. Based on surveys, new businesses failed after ten years or five
years. They can not continue their business because of lack experiences and skill.
The reporters asked John Lennon, the Beatles personal band, “why do you
so success” John Lennon answer, “ If I know, we are going to success.
I will hire Body guards and create good management”
Success begins, with working hard, full dedication and loves our work.
We do not care about time and money to spend because we love our work.
3. Ask yourself, what do you like much in life.
It is easy to ask you, what make your life become passion. Passion makes your
life so colorfully, energetic, not monotone and boring. We feel energetic when
we are getting up in the morning. To know more activities that you like much
in life, writing down as many as possible activities on the paper. Do not afraid
to write them and select the most activities that you like much. Try to implement
them in life. Do not be hesitated to change, if you feel not suitable with your feeling.
3.Change your passion activities into business.
Do not be surprised. If your friends, family, or coworker success in their business,
just doing their passion activities. They are going to do it with full of their
heart so that send the energy to others. Are you ready jumping without parachute!
Let’s try it !
