Something I’ve learned late in life: if someone wants to start a business, support them. If not financially, then psychologically be there for them. Being there isn’t always about showing the good side of things, but also reminding them of the risks and possible scenarios. Enabling them to think aloud.
Everyone has opinions on many things, but those opinions disappear without being put into action. We need people who take action, who will do things, rather than just talking.
In this economic situation and political instability, it may not be easy or realistic to have plans for 5 or 10 years from now. Despite everything, we need to have a short-term and long-term goal. The important thing is to take concrete steps towards those goals and face the risks. This way, stability can be maintained. I believe, or think I know, that selling goods and services for which you’ve created demand shouldn’t be difficult. What matters is not only what you offer, but also how you offer it.
