ahm. i didnt borrow money for that.. somebody paid that for me.. for his/her business interest, (well, im happy nga gi recognize nila ako talents.. hehehe) .. ang ako ra gyud gasto is pamilite pero grabe napud pati kana imu kwentahon.. hmm. lawyer ka no? look at the essence not the technicalities.. think big.. always look at the big picture first before going into the details..
the professionals recognize the authority of who is paying them.. they know that their paycheck comes from the employer even if that employer is a college drop out.. and dont forget, you as an employee is always replaceable..
i stand my ground nga dili magamit imo full potential kung trabahante ra ka.. even if manager imo position.. simply because you arent exposed to all aspects of the business, and you have nothing to lose if the establishment fails except your job which you can look for in other companies.. and also, your responsibities and duties are only to those that you are being paid for.. (you might also think about the time spent on your job can be spent on other activities)
im not hands on.. why should i? i have people doing the things that needs to be done.. my job is to make businesses that are self sustaining.. not running them.. i dont need my employees to use their whole potential. why should i? that would create power bases on the companies i own, and also they have to spend energy on other parts of their lives except work diba?.. i limit what they know to what they need to know.. if ganahan sila magnegosyo ila. go. as long as dili sila mo competensya. better, if mocooperate sila.. il help them start their own..
it might interest you that my first business is already 5 years operational using my formula ( i copied this from other businessmen) .. my other businesses are 4 year old and most are still 3 years old.. although i still have new projects going on.. i call them "babies"-

nindut tana i advertise ako biz dre pero nah... basin naa tga- BIR, initan napud ko..
what i mean of "nothing" is no money on my part..

i think OT na ta.. we should put this one under my thread starting a biz with nothing..
kung manarbaho ka. i advise kanang industry nga gusto nimu sudlan kung magnegosyo nka.. gain contacts ang study how the company works from the inside.. being an employee is what i consider the safe way. but the rewards are limited.. pagnegosyo lang kung isog jud mo.. it aint fun and games...
