YOUR OWN BUSINESS AND YOU
It is unfortunate that nowadays so many Nigerians go to higher institution of learning
for the sole purpose of getting a degree which will qualify them "to get a job" after graduation. What kind of ambition is
that - the ambition to become a well paid SLAVE for life?
The unfortunate thing about this is that the " jobs"
being prepared for are in short supply and many times not available! The government that had traditionally provided jobs can
no longer be relied on. It led the way in the retrenchments which ravaged the country not long ago.
Many people
say a good job means security, this has been proved to be falsehood. Anyone who has a boss can be retrenched, blackmailed
or frustrated out. Examples abound.
Can you imagine what a terrible shock it is to a man who has been enjoying
fat income to suddenly find himself out on the street? The experience could be shattering. You cannot feel secure when somebody
has that power over you.
You can never be independent when someone has the power to tell you how many hours you
must work, how long a vacation you may have and even as actually happens in many cases- what kind of clothes you may or may
not wear!.
And what about the future of an employee? What kind of financial success is possible to him?
The
man who has the brain and energy to get to the top in a big company and earn a "fat" salary could very likely become a MILLIONAIRE
were he to apply that energy and brain power to his own business.
NOBODY GET RICH WORKING FOR OTHERS - UNLESS
THERE IS SOMETHING EXTRA BESIDE IS LEGAL SALARY.
When a man works for others he is merely helping to make his
employers rich, which he does at the sacrifice of his own independence.
There is an only one way to achieve independences
and the opportunities that go with it and that is to be your own MASTER.
A lot has already been said on how to
curb unemployment. Many theories have been propounded. Position papers written. We are not short of orators. But none has
actually showed what could be done.
At THE THY CONSULTING, our mission is about what to do. Ours is not theoretical
but straight to the point and pratical.
