There’s a rising tide of entrepreneurship sweeping across Africa, and the youngsters are riding it vigorously. A growing number of young Africans are not just content waiting around for a proper career bump up the establishment ladder. No. Their ambitions are much more profound; they are setting out to write their own destinies - establishing remarkable enterprises that will transform Africa and reignite its economies.
From experience, I can tell you that pursuing an idea is a daunting task that involves many levels of hard work. For many, this is where their dream ends. May it be because they feel they lack all the skills needed to take their idea all the way to success. But remember this, if Richard Branson would have stopped pursuing his Virgin Atlantic dream because he couldn’t fly a plane, well guess what, Virgin would have never been.
No one knows everything from the start, it’s a fact. You ease yourself into it and learn the trades as you go. The only thing that should concern you is to always keep your dream alive, clear in your head and to keep up that fighting spirit, no matter what is thrown your way. This is how you will “win”.
So, what is my “initial idea” with Steemit? Well, first off, perhaps I should mention that I am not a new entrepreneur. I will talk more about each of these endeavours in my upcoming posts here on Steemit.
Now, as I have found myself mesmerized by the profitability of cryptocurrencies, Steemit seems to be one of the most creative platforms so far. It’s a different take on the cryptocurrency concept and I really like it. On top of that, I feel privileged to have been granted an account on this new platform and I am going to work hard to make the very most of it here.
My purpose on Steemit is to explore the financial possibilities as well as gathering information, knowledge and, of course, sharing my own thoughts, progress and also a few tips and tricks that I have learned throughout my journey to where I am today. This might help some of you ease your way into your role as an entrepreneur or widen your scope as an already established one.
Some of you are Steemit professionals and I intend to learn as much as I can from you. I, on the other hand, once again I find myself a beginner and I like it. I have always found the journey to success more rewarding than actually arriving there. So, this is my “starting from scratch” and it’s going to be a long, educational and fun journey that I hope I will get to share with a lot of you. Any tip you may want to share with me is greatly appreciated and I would be more than happy to receive them.
