Always be on guard when running your business

[freedomgo]

There is no one more responsible to manage your own business but your own self because that comes from your own concept and idea, other people might only take advantage on it in the long run especially if you keep busy yourself with things away from your business. And besides, you know what's best for your business, not the other people, so if you want to hire a person, let him be your assistant but the top position is still you, and if possible be present in your business most of the time so you can monitor whether your business grows or fails within the process.

That is the same in investing, we invest in people because we have believed them to be a good worker and will turn our business into a profitable one. But it turns out that if we have hired the wrong people that we have put our trust in them are also the reason why we're falling apart. So, if you own a business, there is a reason why there's a long process of hiring coming from managers, supervisors and even with the CEOs. It's not only about what's written in their CVs but also the attitude and perspective they believe that should be valuable to the company's  growth.

The mistake that my parents did was trusting the hired manager too much, always be on your guide when running business and paying people salaries, people are like termites, what you paid them might never be enough for them, they will start planning to drain down your business and if you are too relaxed it won't show until it's too late.

When you are into business, you should learn to manage your business yourself, and even if you are going to employ anyone to assist you, then you shouldn’t leave everything in the person’s hand, you should be managing it yourself, you should tell the person which you employed to give account for the activities happening in the company, and you should be available also to monitor things yourself. If you decide to trust someone completely with your business, then you should know that your business might end up going down in the long run.

I have heard about how people’s employe steal from the business which they are hired to work, and the more your staffs keeps on stealing from you, then your business will be going down.

Getting someone that genuinely wants to work for you without having hidden motive of stealing from your business is very rare, business owners really go through a lot and putting so much trust on your employees is very risky no matter how genuine they appear to be in front of you. Big businesses owners find it very difficult to keep records of their stocks because they always have it in large quantities so it's very important to always be available or present in everything that is happening and never be behind the scenes because that's leaving your business at the mercy of your employees and always be one step ahead by showing up unannounced sometime at your business place.
