The entreprenurial journey is a long and winding road to success .This blog will tell my story as I make my way down the less trodden path.I will share the joys, the pains , the lessons and the triumphs along the way.
As a young girl aged 9 in 1995 in my then home town of Chinhoyi is where the seed for entrepreneurship was sowed in my life.My mother a very enterprising woman would have us sell freezits / penny cools from a cooler box .I would watch her travel to South Africa to buy wares for resale .She would bring the latest fashions in clothes ,toys and shoes.This was in addition to her jersey knitting business and a full time job as a teacher.
It is from her that I learnt that it was essential for one to work with their hands to earn an extra income.At the end of the month I would earn a small income from my "part time" job and what a joy it was to know that I had profited from my labours.
In today's world where we see the emergence of billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg , Ashish J Thakker , Dangote.There is one underlying factor that is hard work .To be an entrepreneur one has to have an inherent and resolve to work hard and in most cases burn the midnight oil to succeed.
To be an entrepreneur one has to realize that the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. As one takes up the entrepreneurship journey one has to be willing to work , work long hours , rain or shine and thanks to my Mother I learnt this early in life.
