Have you ever thought of how you can choose the best business that fits you? Well this might help you


In our previous article published on February 2 which talked about the steps one can follow if he or she wants to start his own business, we looked at different steps that one can follow so that he or she can at least get where to start. One of the steps is to choose the right business that fits you , which is what we are going to go through in this article.

For us to go together toward achieving better results, take your pen and list down all the business ideas that you have and together we go together towards choosing the best business fitting you.  Are you ready??? Lets go.....

The first tip towards picking the best business idea is to always focus on the areas in which you have skills in because this increases your chances to succeed in that particular industry  that you want to join with your business. Yes you might be passionate about a certain industry or kind of business but without having the skills related to it, in this case I would advise you to learn first about that particular business and not just go blindly, you can also try it out by working for free or look for an internship or taking courses so that you can get the experience and skills need for you to run your own similar or slightly different business.

Secondly, you should stress on whether you excel and like the business you will be doing simply because if you don't like the kind of business or even job that you are doing, you end up doing it bad and commit many mistakes that can cost you a lot. Therefore, you have to love what you are doing so that you can learn more skills and excel in it. 

On third place, look at a business idea or project which won't take you out completely from your family and other responsibilities. Yes, any kind of business needs time and enough time and sometimes one works very long hours. However, if the business will be taking you all of your time then you will end up failing the other most important part of your life that is also worth living.

After that step, you now have trimmed your list of ideas depending on what is fitting you, the next step is to see if your business that you remain with is feasible, can it really be implemented, can it be tested on the field, look at the requirements that are needed so that you can start that business, is it possible for you to even make profit? 

To sum up, after considering all those steps what follows is to prepare your business road map (model) and business plan detailing your objectives, goals, cost and how you you intend to achieve them.

Rising from the Shadows: How the World's Poorest Nations Can Rewrite Their Economic Future

  Most often we economists are very often studying the poorest countries in the world not simply to analyze grimy statistics but to find ways by which these countries could embark on paths toward transformation. Think about it for a second: Burundi, South Sudan, Somalia, Central African Republic, Niger, Chad, Mali, Yemen, Burkina Faso, and Sierra Leone-all have held the title of "poorest," though with so much potential and resources lying under their feet. They stand at the threshold of transformation, notwithstanding that heavy burden of poverty, political instability, and infrastructure deficits. By reinventing their economies and leveraging even modest strengths, these countries can break free from the chains of poverty. What helps knit them together is their shared heritage of turmoil: political turbulence, continuing conflict, and economic precariousness have been nothing short of traveling companions. The resulting turbulence discourages foreign investment, disrupts e...

When Employees Go to Court: Lessons for Rwanda's Accounting Sector

  The auditing profession thrives on the trust, reputation, and expertise of its human resources. The current research topic was brought to light through an incisive paper, entitled "When Employees Go to Court: Employee Lawsuits and Talent Acquisition in Audit Offices," that appeared in the Journal of Accounting Research and a collaboration between authors Jade Huayu Chen. Whereas this study investigates U.S.-based firms, it would seem there is much herein for teachings that may relate to what transpires in Rwanda's emerging accounting industry. Chen's study addresses the impact of employee lawsuits on audit offices. The findings indicate that these incidents damage an office's reputation and diminish its ability to attract superior professionals. An employee lawsuit, often filed for reasons such as wage disputes, discrimination, or wrongful termination, serves as an information intermediary reflecting inadequate workplace culture and mismanagement. It means, stud...

Can the Global South ever escape the debt trap? The economist's view

  With the heavy debt burdens that the Global South faces, questions of economic sovereignty and equitable growth have gained increased urgency. Both the present-day global financial architecture and trade orientation provide significant barriers but also potential opportunities for these countries to break out of their debt crises. Here, this paper discusses ways through which the Global South could surmount such challenges with concrete examples that might illustrate possible pathways. The Challenge of Debt in the Global South The accumulation of debt in the Global South is no doubt linked to structural issues such as dependence on commodity exports, reliance on foreign financing, and exposure to external shocks like fluctuating exchange rates or a rise in global interest rates. The global financial architecture, dominated by institutions like the IMF and World Bank, often conditions loans on structural adjustment policies, which are then implemented with austerity measures...
