Entrepreneurship as a key to sustainable development among Youths.

Entrepreneurship  is the key to sustainable development. There are a lot of young people who need to be fully employed in order to assist themselves and their family.

Youths should consider entrepreneurship by monetizing their talents, skills and abilities. They should not be deceived by the myth that money is required to start a business.

True, money is essential to develop a business but NOT to start! Education, training and most importantly: Plan, Plan and Plan. Yes, Planning is important in starting a business.

Youths need to think big but start small, they should look to ways to monetize their skills to help others. The most successful entrepreneurs are those who use their skills, talents and abilities to help people.
Thomas Edison who invented the light bulb was afraid of the dark and he utilized that fear to invent the light bulb and indeed solved the problems of many. So, what are your fears? What are your Challenges? What are your talents? What are your skills?

This is a time to develop your skills and talents by mastering the art through research and utilizing it to help others. Can you cook very well, such that your family and friends can attest very well to the wonderful smell and taste of your food? Then what are you waiting for? Start a food business. Macdonalds, Mama Cass and co. started small, you can too!

We have a very wonderful tool that when utilized very well can turn you to a millionaire overnight. It is of course the Internet! There are billions of people using the internet every second and no matter how rich they are or seem to be: They all have problems!

Another good tool is social networks, there are millions of people on social networks that you can assist with your talent, and you know what? They will gladly pay for your services and tell you: Thank you!
You don’t need to own a fat account to start a business, you just need an idea, a plan and a talent or something you are passionate about, something you will do and always do whether you are paid for it or not!
Certainly, not all business succeed. However we should never fail to try. It is better, far better that we try and fail than fail to try. That will be very dangerous.

An entrepreneur is one who fails 7 times but get up 8 times.
