Business failure… reasons
Filed under: entrepreneur, Entrepreneurship, management, roysville, self-help
Here I am writing what I believe were some of the reasons why I failed in my businesses before. I am writing them here for two reasons. Primarily, for me to serve as a reminder so that I may not repeat the same mistakes, and second, for those who may read this may learn too from my experiences, and thus save them costly errors in their own business.
Reasons for failing in business :
A medley of knowledge
I would like to think of myself as a talented person. I know how to do a lot of things.
But apparently, “Jack of all trades – master of none” didn’t work for me. In fact, it could probably be one of the main reasons I failed. I know a lot of things, yet I wasn’t able to develop anything into a full grown opportunity.

How do you put out a fire?
How do you put out a fire? By dousing it with water! That’s right; to kill a fire you simply douse it with water.
Now, how do you kill enthusiasm? Simple, by dousing it with water!
Now why and how, you may ask, pour water on enthusiasm? I’m not really referring to physical water here, of course you know that.
I used the analogy because enthusiasm is like a fire burning within an individual. People doused it with water by simply saying NO! STOP! THAT CAN’T BE DONE!
This is one of the most common management mistakes. Sometimes, an individual comes along with a new or an improved idea. Enthusiastically, he shares to the bosses, very confident that this idea would improve performance, cut costs, lead to better sales or really create big changes within the organization.

How do you keep happy employees?
Filed under: All in a day's work, Articles, Career, Entrepreneurship, management
Would you believe that an effective way to keep your people happy is by firing away the unhappy ones?
Sounds like a joke? Jay Goltz really hoped it was.
Goltz, who owns five small businesses in Chicago, shared his secret in keeping happy employees in the company in the report from Yahoo! Finance.
Admitting that he doesn’t have a Ph. D., an M.B.A. or any economics degree, Goltz said that he had learned through times that you cannot make everyone happy.

Are you in business or just self-employed?
Filed under: entrepreneur, Entrepreneurship, management, roysville, self-help
What could be the difference between the two?
A lot!
I myself could not believe it until it was proven by our facilitator during our Ka-Entrep sessions in 2007 at CSE. Our seminar facilitator asked us one by one, and all the while we thought we were in business, but as it turned out most were just self-employed, we really don’t have a business but just a job at home.
“So what is your business?” The facilitator asked, “I do homemade salad dressings, the feedback I’m getting are good. In fact, I get lots of orders. I can say business is really good” replied the participant.
“You make the salad dressings yourself?” the facilitator continued. “Yes, ma’m!” was the the quick reply “it’s my own formula, my secret recipe.”
“So I take it that you won’t entrust your secret formula to anybody else, so only you must work to do your salad dressings, right?”

Pacquiao’s Victory, can we learn business discipline from it?
December 7, 2008, Philippine time. All eyes were glued on the television and every Filipino was very happy when Manny Pacquiao won over Oscar dela Hoya. From this victory, can we learn something that can be applied in business?
Yes we can… and we should. And what can these be? There are actually a lot of them, and here are just some:
Focus
Pacman has a lot of things to do aside from boxing. He has a hosting stint on local television, some businesses he invested in, social obligations he has to attend to, and of course his family. But when the need arise to focus on his mission, focused he was, and his sight was set on his desired result – to win the match.
Every entrepreneur should always be focused on what he wishes to accomplish in his endeavors. Taking everything that distracts his attention aside, until he has established his business.
Welcome To Roysville!
After a self-imposed hiatus, because of one business failure after another… and the death of my wife, I am now seriously considering again to go back into the entrepreneurial scene. Honestly, at this moment I still don’t have any concrete plan of what to do. Heck! I don’t even know where to start. The only thing I’m sure of right now is, I want to go back again.
Slowly I will trace where I left off. Carrying with me the lessons learned from previous failures and a firmer dedication to go on no matter what. Why the determination? Simple, because right now I have nothing. That only means I have nothing to loose. And this deficiency is in fact the stepping stone that will help me stand again and help me attempt to climb the ladder of success… again.
