¿Alguna vez quisiste tener un negocio? Si es así, ¿qué es? Y si los recursos (dinero, talento, habilidades, personas, etc.) no fueran un problema, ¿lo habrías iniciado?
Did you ever wish to run a business? If yes, what is it? And if resources (money, talent, skills, people, etc) are not an issue, would you have started it?
This is an interesting question because I have many hobbies, I learn quickly, and I become very fond of the things I manage to do on my own. It's no secret that I love art in all its forms, and perhaps anyone would think that I would like to devote myself exclusively to drawing and makeup, which, obviously, can also be a good business, but nothing could be further from the truth. Drawing is quite complicated to turn into a business, although there are other artistic fields that I have considered and that I love as options for starting my own business.
Lately, I've discovered that I like doing crafts. It relaxes me, although it's not always like that—there are ups and downs—but I usually concentrate so much on finishing a project that it becomes super addictive and relaxing. It would be a great option to be able to profit from it, something that's different, that I like, and I've often thought about starting a business to decorate cell phone cases in a... kawaii style? I love these finishes, and I think it would be fun to make my own designs. Here's a photo of what I mean:
Makeup has also been an option that I have considered many times in my mind, but honestly, I couldn't do it. I don't have the gift of teaching, let alone the confidence to apply makeup to someone else. I feel like it would be super awkward and I would be dying of anxiety touching someone else's face. I really hate invading other people's space and having them invade mine. It causes me a lot of stress and excessive sweating, haha. That's why another option I've considered is something completely different from everything mentioned above.
I love baking. I'm no expert, but I've made things I never imagined I could make, like cookies, cupcakes, cakes, ice cream, and cold cakes. At one point, I dreamed of starting my own cake business, and I know it would do well because I always try to make every dessert addictively delicious, haha. If I had the opportunity to start a business like this, I would do it without a doubt.
The only thing that would worry me if I could ever make this dream a reality would be the sales method, the budgets, knowing where to get the materials without such high costs (especially considering that I'm in Venezuela, the country where people make a living by ripping others off with prices). I think that would be my only concern, but I would really like this business, plus food is something that always sells and never goes out of style.
