How to Start !!!!!!

Hello guys!!!!!
I am Bram, I will tell you about how to start with a small business & share about my experiexce till date.

I started my business experience since I was at elementary school. At that time I was selling some child’s play tools like kelereng, gambar etc. I saw this opportunity since I knew that all friends of mine always play those games and had to buy the tools far away from our home.
This experience made my mind entered by a business perspective, then I continue with established a free magazine for youth at 2006 called Nueva. We had publish 6 edition and had to stop our operation because of human resources challenges. At this step I learned about how to manage some part time people with lots of activities and honestly I told you that it was great experience.
Now I run my other business called Bright Indonesia, a company moved on development of human resources and business for youth. I established Bright Indonesia with support of 3 friends that having one vision to develop youth of our surrounding, that’s why we always held many events and trainings for youth development.
We started our first program named Ngobrol Bisnis. Then we also have a program for Senior High School student called Shine upworkshop. On November 2008 we held 1st Youth Festival contains of Youth Business Exhibition, Youth Business Seminar, Youth Community Exhibition.

During my juney, I have several tips for youth in establishing a business:
• Start for a simple business
You don’t have to establish a big business if you don’t have enough money. You can start to sell a simple stuff to your community to collect the money then you can establish a bigger business.
• Learn from a mentor
We should learn from a person that successfull already. They experienced a lot in establish and develop their business. We can ask then to share their experience to us and by that experience we can avoid some fatal mistake so we can run our business better.

Why Entrepreneurs-----Become Big Boss

Dear all of Entrepreneurs,,,
My name is Mariska Sherly P, just call me Mariska…
I’m Vice President of Incoming Exchange 08/09 in AIESEC Local Committee University of Diponegoro – Semarang – Jawa Tengah – Indonesia.

I’m the one who create this PBoX (Project Based on Exchange) with issue Entrepreneurship,,,
The reason why I decided to create this project is based on my Chinese family background which is an entrepreneur and I think that, in Semarang , there are a lot of potential in entrepreneurship and as the new young leader in the future, I think this PBoX can be good case practice for the other young leader and entrepreneur candidates in the future to start think about having their own business from their creativities and explore their experience and mindset about economic and help to decrease the poverty rate in Indonesia and make more work field for the other and become the BIG BOSS,,,

It all started from Monetary crisis in Indonesia in 1998. That time, lots of people got fired from their workplace, & then they start thinking about how to survive at that time and the only answer was to start their own business.

Actually my family was an employer's family in my little home town named Kudus, and after my father “quit” from his job (because his contract ended). He talked with all of my family, & one question was raised- “what can we do to survive?”,. After my father quit from his job, we do not want to get another job from the other company because my family decided to have our own family business, it is enough to learn how to manage our business from my father’s experience during his working in that company and actually our Chinese blood background gave us descendant’s legacy how to survive in business & manage our own business.

This was the story how we became self-employed & started our own business & came to know as entrepreneurs, Right now my family have 5 businesses, they are Bedcover and Cover for bed (Rossa’s Collection), Internet Café, Bihun Distributor, Event Organizer ( Dragon EO ), and 3 Boarding Houses.

I believe that you can be entrepreneur too if you have spirit and never give up behaviour…
Like what Valentino Rossi said “ WHAT IF I HAD NEVER TRIED IT”. My family thought to be an entrepreneur if we do not dare to dream and make decision for our future, of course we do not get anything in the future. That is what I believe.

GO ENTREPRENEURSHIP,,,,
YYIIIPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,,,,,,,,

Cheers

Entrepreneurial Mindset

The entrepreneurial mindset is what sets successful people in business. Without the entrepreneurial mindset at work, you may find it hard to achieve success in any kind of business. True entrepreneurs seem to have certain qualities that enable them to be successful in what they do. It has to do a lot with how they think and how they look at things.

The way you think can really determine whether you will become a successful entrepreneur or not.

1.  Successful entrepreneurs think that they can do it. Armed with a vision of what they want to achieve, entrepreneurs have absolute confidence in themselves that they will be able to succeed. They look at things in a different way. When other people think of the obstacles along the way, entrepreneurs think of them as challenges.  A strong belief, coupled with positive thinking, is just one of the marks of a successful entrepreneur.

2. Successful entrepreneurs think that risk is all part of the process. Most people are afraid of risks because they do not want to find themselves outside of their safety zone.  Successful entrepreneurs think otherwise. Sometimes you need to come out of the safety zone and take risks in order to succeed. But winning entrepreneurs have another trait going for them - they know how to take calculated risks.

3.  Successful entrepreneurs not only "think", they "do." They know that in order to be successful, action is needed. Having well-intentioned goals is good, but focused action would get you there. Having the entrepreneurial mindset will help a lot in making you succeed with your next business endeavor. Developing it takes some time.  But the earlier you take the effort of doing so, the better your chances of succeeding as an entrepreneur.

The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it. Nobody talks about entrepreneurship as survival, but that's exactly what it is and what nurtures creative thinking. Running that first shop taught me business is not financial science; it's about trading: buying and selling."

Experience taught me a few things. One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you're generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make.

Why Entrepreneur? - Ask Oneself

Don’t you have any right to live your life freely?
Does your family deserve your time?
Don’t you dream of owning something?
Do you deserve to go more ahead than others?
Are you happy in just $50 when u can earn $500?

Are the above questions stupid?
Aren’t they related to you?

Yes they are because they are related to your life, your soul, your family and what not. Why you always think that you cannot do anything? Why you always shatter your dreams? Just think of these many questions. And try to find the answers by yourself. Just ask your deep heart from inside and let your mind know what it wants.

These are the top five reasons why you should be an entrepreneur

#4 If you are Bored You are Doing Something WrongRunning a business is an incredibly diverse field to be in। Through my ventures I have been exposed to incredible and interesting knowledge ranging from business fundamentals such as marketing, accounting, sales, and customer service to the importance of time management, goal setting, and even exercise। I literally view the world in a completely different light now than before I became involved in business। Every day I find myself learning something new and being immersed in a different and new area. You can’t get much further from an assembly line than this.

#3 it’s More Satisfying than Roller Coaster Tycoon or Sim CityI’ve always enjoyed playing simulation games. While Doom was the hot item with most of my friends I really preferred Sim City and other empire building games. It’s an incredibly satisfying feeling to start with nothing and end up with something absolutely amazing. I believe in seizing this building attitude and applying it to life. After all why should I build a virtual company when I could apply the same concepts to real life? Treating life as a game may sound silly as first, but frankly I am having a lot of fun.

#2 Thinking is RewardedRunning a business may be hard work, but that’s certainly not what you are rewarded for. Often times burning the midnight oil is simply the bare minimum for entry into business. Your returns come from working smart, and the quality of your ideas and creativity are now directly tied into your revenue size. A single good idea can make you $10 000 in one hour while slaving away for 40 hours on a bad one can have virtually no return.

#1 Success is in Your Hands - A Whole New Job SecurityHeadlines constantly barrage us about the lack of job security in so many sectors. GM and Ford are both laying off masses of people. I am only 21 Having a job these days, even with a massive company, provides only the illusion of security. Why let your well-being depend on the decisions of a CEO, whose absolute No.1 priority isn’t your future? Ensuring your own prosperity and achievement of your goals is ultimately the responsibility of one person and one person only
