With a good capital you can be able to successfully Operate any business you might want to venture into . And a proper planning too would go a long way to guide you through the journey of starting your own business.

That is correct,but in business the issue most times goes beyond having the capital for investment, understanding the market and the nature of consumer preference is another key, good managerial skill is also needed.

If you make business of what you love most (talent)you may likely be very successful since you can persevere under several challenges and you won't feel bored. I have learned this from my experience. I have started small business and it was running well but I end up leaving it because I didn't like. Another thing is business idea on paper that put into really practice can bring another challenges that you didn't expect. Things underground is different

This is a very good write up, to start a business you don't have to start big you can start small, first you must have your capital ready even if it's little, done research about the business you want to do, location either offline or online and also how to start

It is a very sad thing that people who are working from 9 to 5 and not really going to have time in order to invest in business. But then you can still allocate time even if it is 1 or 2 hours a day for it.

That's why working under people will always stop you from making money needed to make you grow, all you will get is money do transports and feeding allowance.

First of all you should discuss with professionals about it because they might tell you things and risks you are not aware of. you should also check if your products aren't being too sold so you can enter the market and try your luck, because if there are many businesses which offer the same products it will be much harder for you to sell your own, because there is a competition and everybody tries is best. A small business must have it's own unique things, things that set it apart from others so people will choose it over the others. And a small company must be opened by someone who understands how businesses work so he will be able to maintain it and keep it successful.
