Must everyone venture into business?

[alani123]

Your success in business happens at the expense of other people not being in business.

There's a need in beetroot? People need the vitamins and nutrients to live, right?
But city people don't have a garden. So what do you do? You buy land and start selling the produce to them.
Beetroot is a necessity to the people but you aren't in it for the ethics, you're in it for the money. So you'll charge as much as you can.

Of course you aren't the only unethical actor in this because almost the whole of society is operating under these principles. So called competition in the market might force you to lower your prices or even close down, but unless there's a profit incentive, under the current economic system only governments and central management can sustain the supply of good long term.

Thus we realise that not everyone can be in business. Some people need to actually supply the labour for the production of goods. And business acts in a kind of parasitic way to production even.

Actually this question is a bit weird knowing that lot of people are looking for a diverse way of earning an income, whereby they would be looking for business to do in other to sustain themselves. But one question I keep asking is that “must everyone venture into business“?

The reason why I draw this question was as a result of someone I knew too well that wasn’t able to maintain the business he owned. Every two years he kept jumping from business to another yet no results to show up about becoming successful through that business.

The reason why some people do different kind of business is because they believe that if this doesn't work out for them, another one will work out for them somehow. This is the believe that is motivating some people to never give up despite the challenges that they are facing, either in business or any other source of incomes. OP I understood what you're trying to prove, but the truth is that, if capital is not involved in business, many people will be handing their own business (a lots  or majority of people will be a business owner by now), but it is the capital that is stopping them from starting a business. Everyone loves freedom, and the only way to give yourself that, is through self-employment. Being self-employed will save you from different kind of work stress, that's why some people love, prefer or always wish to be their own boss, but time didn't permit them.

Businesses are opportunities to make money, and i will advise anyone to make good use of these opportunies,  some become successful while some don't because of their weakness or some other reasons, so the whole point is that businesses and opportunities are open for every one and it's good that they are involved in different types of business. But at the end of the day, it is not meant for everyone, some will make good use of it while some waste the opportunity,

So to me I I don't think the question is well placed, everyone should go into business and see how successful they can be, its more of a financial advice.

The better question should be "is business meant for every one?"

Regarding the question you first asked when the topic was first introduced, it is very important that we understand this as we proceed further, I would like to state that not only must everyone indulge in business but as a matter of fact everybody is in the businessof life  already in one way or the other,

But the big question here is, to what extent or how much does one understand the nature of the business they are involved in, and how committed are you to ensuring that you succeed in that particular venture, these are the factors that determine if one has to succeed in any given business.

Certain people will want to start their business while others will want to run a day job.

There is nothing with either one. As long as you love what you do and you are satisfied with the pay, the latter being a personal choice, it is fine. Nobody can force you to do something that you do not find enjoyment in.

But the thing is that in jobs you might not have much of a voice to speak with unless you get promoted to high levels while in a business you have that which again comes with other mode tedious responsibilities.

It's a thing of choice anyways, some would prefer a day job while some will prefer a self own business, it depends on how one pleases, but if I'm to make a choice I would rather prefer a self own business than a day job, I've got my reasons I don't mean to discourage anyone like I said it's a thing of choice, but going into self own business will be much better and you don't just venture into business because othera are doing just fine from it, you will have to get the eyes for it you might just regret it after all.

There is no one size fits all answer to the question of which is better, between a job and a business. The freedom of business is appealing, but it also brings with it uncertainty and responsibility, as well as income fluctuations.  It's not fair to start up a business simply because someone else has done it and been successful. The first thing you should do is to know your own capital, and the market you are about to join. I would recommend beginning slowly and building up on the results. After all it is a job or a business, and what is important is what is suited to you.

It's a free world, anyone can get into what they want, either business or a work experience. They could decide to try something new if the other does not work out well.

But if someone takes a proper check and plans things well, just maybe, they may not be running from one post to another. It reminds me of the old statement, 'jack of all trades, master of none'.

Somehow, it is not also good to jump from one place to another. People should know you for a particular thing, not almost everything. People can get there own resolutions on what they want to do. But business is not for everyone, because business is not for the weak. Business is very tasking, and anyone who is not ready to sacrifice, serve and upgrade his services will not grow in business.

[Franklyn-wood]

People always have the love to start up business but they may not have the Charisma to keep the business running for long time, and yes people do clamors for additional source of income where they would start going into different businesses just for them to keep income coming. Many would do all it takes them but, are somehow being distracted because already they have no business idea in regards to the type of business they are jumping into. They may hear that Mr. A ventured into that particular business and became successful but they wouldn't know the stress, difficulties in that particular business before they become successful.

Sometime the condition at which people find themselves may be the reason why they don't consider before venturing into the business they invest in. The truth is that not every one can manage the stress attached to the success attributed to the efforts needed in the business. There is need for strategies applied in every business and having a target audience is also part of the things required for a business to grow and flourish. Connecting with people with influence that will bring more customers and therefore increase the patronage.

Actually, not everyone must venture into business, not everyone will become sellers, others will have to buy. The reason why everyone must not venture into business is because not everyone can run a business very well, and running a business needs certain skills and strategy, as well as consistency also and for sure not everyone can do that.
As for your friend that is moving from one business to another without being successful, one of the things he lacks is consistency. As a business owner, you need consistency and patience to run a business and when it comes to a new business, it doesn’t just start yielding much profit overnight, business needs time and patience. If you cannot be patient, it will be hard to grow your business, that’s why it is important to have knowledge of any business you want to venture into before starting because it prepares you ahead.

Honestly business is not for everyone ,so the answer is No everyone must not venture into business,I even know of someone they have open different business but yet she hasn't succeeded in any of it ,but there are some who are doing well in business no matter how small they start .

Some persons are better off employees,working in an organization, earn salary but can't do well if they are been established, so I believe business is not actually for everyone .

Some people, like the one you are talking about, think or believe that running a business is all about having the necessary resources to get it started, and once that is done, the business will take off in no time, but they are wrong, totally wrong, because if it was that easy to run a business successfully, then every started business would have been successful, but that's not the case, so many people and their businesses fail in this world, and why is that so? Let me tell you the reason.

It is extremely important for a person to understand that a business that they are going to start is what they are actually good at. I mean, if you are just starting, you have never had any previous businesses have no experience at all, but there is one thing that you know very well, then your business should be about that thing. On top of that, you should do your research and homework before you start, like what location would be good, how you are going to target your customers, what you are going to offer them that will make them keep coming back, etc.

Human are naturally business driven. But not everyone will be directly engaged in a business but there's usually indirect doing of business like investing in Bitcoin. Something you will freely do for another, others are getting paid to do the same thing.. I didn't misinterpret your question at all. So look around you and you will see business that somehow are not labeled business.
Misconception of business and uncultured drive to do business due to insatiable needs makes many people to think of doing business, but some businesses didn't last and won't last for one year even.

That' person you who is moving from one business to another needs to do detailed analysis of everything about what they are doing starting from themselves. Some do business because others are doing it and it's fetching money, that's doing business out of feeling without reasoning and other baseless reasons why some go into business only to be moving from one business to another almost all the time.

[Rockstarguy]

It is not everyone that business will favor, and there are different reasons why some people face challenges in business but lack the understanding of how to solve these problems. If anyone must go into business, it is better to know and understand the business that you are about to enter. If you know that the knowledge you already have is not enough to go into business, then don’t force yourself to start a business because business is risky, and what you don’t know about a business can be a reason why you may lose.

I would say it is not every business that everyone can run; it is better for people to know the business in which they will be able to succeed if they start.

[Oyoyoma_yu]

There uncountable business ideas that someone can go into, and based on this I would say anybody can do a business. The truth is that different people with different appetite for business, there some business you need to go out before you can do them, there are also some business that people can come looking for you in your house or even call you on phone to come and deliver it to them, but the truth is that not everyone that have been able to discover the type of business that suits them. When you want to the business that other people are doing instead of engaging in a business that you have passion for , you will likely fail. Another factor that affects business is the management aspect. When you are unable to manage a business properly, or understand the principles that makes a business successful you cannot still cope. Therefore, it is very necessary you learn, and understand the type of business you want to go into before before venturing into it.

Yes that is right anyway, but shouldn't be going into business with such mindset otherwise they could loose everything that they used to make investment or start up the business.
People should always try to make inquiries about the said business they are going into to reduce stress and time wasted. Business is more sweeter, successful and also interesting when you understand the business line you are going into than just going into business without having any good ideas or knowledge about the particular business.

Good! You are right because most times some people do not reason all these things, what they feels is to start up a business and all of the sudden they expected the business to zoom immediately as they thinks without them knowing that there are things to put in place before their business can start flushing as they may think.
Of course, previous experience also matters alot as well, because if they don't have it that is another way of them starting to develop another skill for them to start attracting people in their business and they must be well coordinated.

Maybe he should just buy bitcoin and then  rest because the reason behind why a fellow might be jumping from one Business to another is because thy don't believe in themselves and always think investing in a business wild just fetch them millions without them doing any task but I guess they now get a more realistic results.
Not everyone can do business or maintain a business and the earlier a person realizes that business isn't for them, the better they would get.

[Pi-network314159]

Actually business is for everyone because you must do something to survive and it may be job or self employment so anything you do to get money is a business, so tactically business is for everyone, just that anyone doing business should be able to be consistent to succeed. What a business person needs is time and focus. Doing something repeatedly give you the previlege to understand it more better than others. There is no business without risk but when you do it face the risk, you should be able to face your fear and mitigate the risk gradually he will learn the tactics to  maintain the business. What he just need is to focus on one thing for Long he will succeed. I have been in that show before but now I have known better. Aqn once said that if you urinate in different positions you will not see results, but when you urinate in a particular spot for a week you will see results due to constant deposit on one location, that's the power of concentration and focus.

[Stive009]

Not everyone is cut out for business. There are many individuals who have earned a strong reputation and a handsome salary in the corporate world yet decided to leave their jobs to start their own ventures. They launched their businesses only to lose their capital and face financial ruin within a year. Consequently they lost both their corporate careers and the savings they had invested in the business.

On the other hand there are those who truly understand the intricacies of business. Even if they start with limited funds their capital grows over time, and their reputation spreads far and wide. Just as understanding the business is crucial having luck on one’s side is equally important. That is why I say business is not for everyone there is no obligation for everyone to become an entrepreneur. People should pursue the path and the work that best suits their strengths and aptitudes.

First of all, anyone can do business, but not everyone can become successful.

Not everyone will get success in the initial stages they will face some loss, but they should keep trying, and one day they will get success in that way, changing a business is not a wrong thing because, in the initial stages they don't get enough experience running a business, and they get some experience from that. By the end of the year they know something about that business in that time maybe they make a clear decision about which business is suit for them. This is okay for first time or second time but keeping on doing this will ruin everything.

This type of people better to do a job or a business that don't require any capital so even if they mess up, they can start over without making anyone else life harder.
