Motivational Quote For You
Who is Lao Tzu?
When I was a young child, during my school days I learned about Lao Tzu. He was a Chinese philosopher and poet. His most famous work was that he was the author of a book titled Tao Te Ching. He founded the philosophy of Taoism.
It became popular as a way of life as well as a form of religion. Many people in ancient China practiced Taoism. And even today, there are many people still practicing it.
I Used to Hesitate
Like many of you, I was brought up to believe that to survive in this world, I need to study hard. And after graduation, I needed to work hard. And I did just that.
And trust me, from my experience. I did not work out well.
I went through a few economic downturns. I was retrenched a couple of times as companies downsized. While I was young, it was not that big an issue. I simply looked for another job. As I grew older, I realized this cannot and will not continue.
My friends suggested I start a business. The thought did occur to me. But, I had no funds. And felt I was not ready. So, I hesitated. And went back to job hunting.
I Took My First Step
After the Asian Financial Crisis, I finally decided to start a business. It was a brick and mortar business. It was a digital marketing agency that provided digital marketing services to businesses. We operated from an office.
Over time, the cost of high rental and salaries of staff took its toll on the company profits. I realized this was not the ideal business model for me. I would like a business that has low overhead costs. And high profits.
So, I sold my shares of the agency to my partners. I had decided to do online businesses. And start by working from home.
By working from home, I can keep the costs low. As I grow the business, I can hire virtual assistants to continue to keep the costs low.
Before I did that, I needed to learn as much as I could about how to start and grow an online business. I found a good and reliable training program that is of high quality. I still turn to it when I need to be updated on the latest tips and trends.
And it has helped me build and grow successful businesses on the Internet.
