ENTERPRISE54 – These days, everyone wants to be an entrepreneur or better still called an ‘entrepreneur’, but there is more to entrepreneurship than what we think we know about it. This post is to communicate that entrepreneurship is not for everyone.

Paid Employment is no longer enough to depend on in present day Nigeria. Many people are seeking ways of diversifying income, seeking alternative or multiple streams of income. Many are turning to entrepreneurship and small businesses for this reason. Some youths are even considering dropping out of school to pursue entrepreneurship dreams. However, with the volume of data available about small business or startup failures, it is important to determine if starting a small business is the best way for you.
