Rural Business

 Different Education  I read an articles that having a degree/diploma/certificate will not guarantee a job because the skills that will be needed in the next 5 years require a different education. But what education is that and how can one acquire it since the governmental system certainly does not teach that? I believe that we may not change the system but we can surely change ourselves. This affects businesses because they will be serving a different market. What will it require? Because really most of the people in the rural areas do not have systems that runs their businesses. How will they survive then if currently they are seeing fires? What needs to change? How will it? Who will? This requires a change of the mind.

If your business offers a product or a service that needs people to come to the shop, then this is going to be a long winter for you. It will be cold soon and people will not be able to leave their houses, unless you are able to do house calls. Winter is such a scary time for some people but to some it is a prime time. Brace yourself for what is to come, prepare yourselves and never give up on that business.

  Progress. When running a business we face so many challenges. We sometimes ask ourselves if this is worth continuing with. But we should not give up. We need to measure our progress. If we see even a small bit of progress we must push even harder. We are in winter now and depending on the type of business you are in, business is going to be slow as people will be indoors. This is then an opportunity to evaluate your business, see what you have been doing wrong and find ways to improve. Find ways and things that you can sell for winter, find other streams of revenue. We want to see progress. Innovate and add value.
