I v been lurking on this forum for sometime now. I have read the fastlane book. I Read a couple of them too.
I decided after reading the book I want to start my own business. From my part of the world (Ghana in Africa) starting a business is very difficult.
Our address system is bad so my delivery business failed. Internet business is still under construction here in Ghana cos its very expensive and people cant afford.
Wanted to produce customise stationary for schools and corporate bodies. It also failed cos I had no capital n there was no local printers here. Undertaking this business required huge capital (shipping cost, clearing duty alone discouraged people to invest in an inexperienced wanabe entrepreneur.
I sat down to ask my self this question, will I achieve my goal "WEALTHY BY 30"? I v 6 yrs to achieve that.
A lot of graduates in Africa want to start businesses, solve the needs of people, change the world, but the economic conditions dont allow us. As I speak I am 24 yrs working as an account clerk earning 100usd in a month. (I doubt u will believe) but thats how my part of world pay college grads. I want to be different. Not wait till 60 or 70 to be rich.
How do I take the right decisions to make a difference and help others too?
