14 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD START YOUR OWN BUSINESS

1.Do you get ‘the Sunday-night dread’? If you do, then get out of your job. It is no coincidence that these Sunday-night-specific anxiety attacks come when they do. Your body is telling you it knows what’s going to happen on Monday and it isn’t happy about it. Headaches, tension in your muscles and migraines are all signs from your body that you’re in the wrong career.

Change your job or your kind of job or start a business. This is how I felt before I decided to quit my day job as an internal auditor so that I would be able to combine all the jobs that I love to do without a boss breathing down my neck. I enjoyed my work as an auditor but I hated being stuck in traffic everyday. I hated office politics and I hated the routine of my work. I wanted to have fun whilst working.

2.Basic Survival needs: So that you can pay your bills.

3.Grow without limits: Your salary is fixed but your income is not fixed.

4.Be able to do what you like: Now, I can combine my music and writing talents with my consulting talents under a single roof under Drumline Entertainment.

5.Be able to do your business how you like it: I am able to combine the creative and business side of my talents under the same business without anyone telling me that it should not be done this way.

6.Be able to do my business with who I like: No more office politics for me. I don’t like you, I fire you!

7.Being able to stand for my values: As a business owner, I am able to stand for my integrity values.

8.Creating a real job security: I can resign from my business but I cannot be fired.

9.Earn what I like: I fix my salary.

10.Flexible time: I can plan my time in a way that I will have time for my family and hobbies. I forgot! I no longer have hobbies. My hobbies are now my job; my career! 
  
11.Ability to support charitable organizations.                                                                                                                                            12.So that you can leave a legacy behind: "The time is always right to do what is always right to do what is right."- Martin Lurther King.           

13.You will become more developed as an individual: Like me, you will always be researching and learning new ideas that will move your business forward. 

14.Helping God’s course on planet earth: The Bible says that an idle hand is the devil’s workshop. You need to create employment and use your ideas to make the world a better place.

LAW OF VALUES

verasage.com

What is value?

This is adding a relative worth to a business. Value makes people to come back to a business. It is not enough to add value by solving a problem of filling a need, packaging matters. It is not about the goods that you sell or the service that you provide. It is about the extra service that you add. Focus more on the value than on the money. 

For example, by blogging, I am adding value to you with the information  that I write here on a regularbasis. I might as well just leave the relevant information about my music, writing and consulting services on this website and let you call me only when you need my services.

I could also decide to just compose my songs and just sing it but I have added the sound of the talking drums to my music to make it unique. 

These are my value-added services for you.

Example:

Difference between a tailor and a fashion designer

A tailor is more interested in the money but a fashion designer is more interested in making a name for herself or himself. She adds value to her services by giving advice about the right colour, style fit, etc. A tailor does not care about these factors.

Sometimes, it is okay to lose money for value. Sometimes, people in luxury businesses make more money than people in the necessity businesses.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A VALUE BASED BUSINESS AND A MONEY BASED BUSINESS

VALUE BASED BUSINESS	MONEY BASED BUSINESS
1. A business goes up because the value goes up. E.g. Drumline Entertainment, House of Tara, DSTV	Money reduces every minute.
2.This business moves the world forward by bringing development.	Brings no development as the people are not encouraged to think widely or add value to the business. E.g. Network marketing.
3. People love you and your product. E.g. Dangote Industries.	People despise you. E.g. Past military and civilian governors and presidents and head of states.
4. It makes you happy	It brings depression. E.g. Millionaires who won money via money lottery.
5. It brings fulfillment.	It brings emptiness by trying to fill the void by buying more things. E.g. Plastic surgery, etc
6.This business is never limited. For example, car companies keep improving.	Limited; lack of ideas.
