6. Dedicate a percentage of your monthly income
towards SAVINGS
Do not tamper with your savings, no matter the
circumstance
Attach a significant spending/project to your
savings so as to serve as a driving force to
compel you to keep going on, even during hard
times
7. Many of us do not have an existing start-up
capital to invest in our existing skill that we
have learnt (NYSC)
We do not need to own millions to start a
business line
We just have to cultivate the habit of looking
for an alternative source of income
Every body can be an “ENTREPRENEUR”
