Hello everyone, today is Tuesday and it's quite late now here while I'm writing this, it's abut 2:06 AM already, . Anyway, my topic today is about running a small business, and working your own business is harder than I imagined. I thought that it would be easy at first but I was wrong. My business is selling feminine products by the way. The truth is, I enjoy running my business, there are hardships, yes, but i know that this is normal, and things will become better gradually in the end.

Building or starting a business is one of the most difficult ways for people who are not resilient. There are no successful entrepreneurs in just one trial, their success is found after repeated failures.

Too true @May2k8 , repetition, the mother of all learning and success. That's why I keep going and doing it because success will come eventually.

@anamika161088 Yes, that's true. Owning a small business will teach you how to handle things seriously.

@axlrate7 Thanks dear.. When we run a visit, we have to take care of a lot of responsibilities and management. When big, managers can be hired, when small we ourselves need to take care of many departments

Ellygant, their are no easy ways to make money or to have your own small business. I don't think owning my own business is for me because of all the headaches I'd have to deal with. However, I hope things will get better for you in the end.

The more hard work you put it at the beginning builds a good foundation and you will reap good rewards in the end.

Very true, @carolmill876 , I'm sure I'm doing the right thing today. I know that it's difficult and hard right now but tomorrow or somewhere in the future will be prosperous.
