My heart is filled with joy as I'm writing this Contest, at first when I saw the questions for this week's contest, I was a little bit confused on how to go about it, so I decided to wait a little to read others post so I could know how to organize my own post. I read some of the participants post and I'm motivated to write mine.
I will like the appreciate @nkemakonam89 for inviting me to this Contest too, your invite really motivated me to compose my own post. I think I understand what the questions are now.
My answer will go to option one which says:
What challenges do you find difficult in innovation or propelling yourself forward? How do you plan overcoming them, through emotional ("what drives you"), instrumental (good advice, talent), informational (consulting, marketing, teaching), or accountability (listening to the market, acting upon suggestions) support?
Life itself is full of challenges and struggles but the ability to tackle or solve the challenges matters a lot. I was once told that any challenges or difficulty always have a way to solve it.
As a student, I have been looking for a way to start up a business that will yield extra money for me aside the one my mom gives me, but I realized I don't have a business skills. I'm the kind of person that will do any work to get money but it seems my lack of business skills have become a major challenge for me. I have tried in several occasions to come up with a business ideas but anyone I come up with doesn't really work for me, but one thing about me is that I'm very good in advising people on how they will go about their business or the plans they need to make before starting up a business, but why is that not working for me is something I really need to solve.
Another one is the fear to stand in the crowds. Back then in high school I tried to overcome my fear of crowd by engaging in quiz and debate in my school, up till now I taught I had overcome the fear of standing in the crowds until it was time for my seminar defense, I was really scared and when I stood in crowds, my voice was shaking while I was talking to everyone, After everything I regained myself. When I told my friend that I'm still scare of the crowd, he advised me that whenever I'm in front of a crowd to give a speech I shouldn't look at their faces, instead I should look elsewhere.
After the advice, i found it funny, how will I be looking somewhere else when I'm supposed to be looking at them. I decided to take his advice, when I was asked to address the whole people in class by reading out some of the rules that was set aside by the vice-chancellor to the students, I did it without any fear. He made me believe that every challenges have a solution, and I'm glad I was able to solve mine.
For the business, I have decided to finish my studies before starting up a business, then I will have enough time to dedicate to my business and I'm sure it will come out great.
I will like to invite @goodysam and @iskafan to participate in this contest, here is the link to the contest.
