  • Practical Ways to Start Your Own Business

    Practical Ways to Start Your Own Business

    The current pandemic enables people to go beyond what they can do to earn some extra income. Most people begin to sell valuable products or monetize their skills. If you are planning to become an entrepreneur, this article will impart ways to start your own business.

    Every business aims to solve social issues and current problems through its products and services. The bigger the problem you are solving, the more your business is sustainable and impactful for many. However, according to the article of Entrepreneur.com, it’s better to solve for a specific one, wherein you can competently talk about solving that particular issue.

    Moreover, no matter what stage you are at right now, keep in mind that businesses occur due to ‘demand’. To identify a demand, always choose a niche you want to cater to. You can’t settle for a vast crowd. You don’t want to sell your products and services to everyone. That’s is difficult.

    One of the ways to start your business is to identify how can you give value to your chosen niche. Always think how can you differentiate your business from your competitors. By doing this, you are building a strong identity in the industry where you belong. Note that the problem you chose to solve through your business is one way of creating value.

    Respectively, when you are starting a business, learn to be innovative. Where can you see your business five years from now? What are other products and services that can add more value to your business?

    To achieve this, you need to spend time learning. When you are a business owner, learning should be a part of your journey. Successful CEOs handle their companies well because they do not settle on what they currently know—as startups, it is a vital habit that you should adopt to make your business successful.

    Learning entails asking for guidance from more experienced individuals. Seeking help from other people is a big help for more business opportunities and growth. Be open-minded when starting a business because there are things that you have not seen but others do.

    Starting your own businesses nowadays may be challenging but taking note of these simple ways can make things easier for you. Keep in mind that having your own business is rollercoaster ride but in the end, everything will be worth it.

  • Yuka Saso, First Filipino Golfer to Win the U.S. Women’s Open Championship

    Yuka Saso, First Filipino Golfer to Win the U.S. Women’s Open Championship

    The Philippines now has a new sports hero, and she is the 19-year-old Yuka Saso, the first Filipino golfer to win the U.S. Women’s Open championship.

    On June 07, 2021, CNN’s Sportsdesk interviews Filipino golfer Yuka Saso and shares her journey as she wins the U.S. Women’s Open Championship.

    In the interview, she was asked what was going through her mind during the match. 

    “Unang-una po naisip ko po ang pamilya ko. Laking pasasalamat ko po sa kanila.”

    “I’m really, really grateful. To all the fans in the Philippines, maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat. Binigyan niyo po ako ng lakas.”

    When asked what her strategy was, Saso humbly shared,

    “Hindi ko masyadong iniisip kung sino ang mananalo o matatalo. I just focused on myself and my golf.”

    Before the championship, the pressures of the play-offs were complex. It was too intense that Saso admits she experienced a stomach ache after participating in the 18 holes.

    Although it was a nerve-racking experience for her, she was able to stay calm thanks to her caddy. 

    Have the realities that she made history sank in?

    “Sobrang saya ko po sa history na nagawa ko. (But) I think there’s still a long way to go for me. So, I’ll just keep on working.”

    Saso made history as the first ever Filipino and among the youngest to win the major championship.

    Congratulations, Yuka Saso!

    Mayweather: ‘Pacquiao at his age, which is sad, has to fight’

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. is a former five-division champion. He is quite famous not only because he is a boxing champion but also because of his beliefs and controversial statements.

    Mayweather recently had an exhibition fight versus a YouTuber named Logan Paul. Of course, the 44-year-old boxing champion did not miss any opportunity to share his life’s struggles.

    “The early sacrifices I made from 1996 to 2006, for ten years, (I) beat the best fighters and did not make 8-figures at all.”

    “When I became my own boss, I got my first cheque, 8-figures, and earned what I wanted to earn.”

    He did not hesitate to give some insights about his once foe, 42-year-old Manny Pacquiao.

    “It’s not bashing when I talk about any fighter like this.”

    “Not ’cause I have to do it.”

    “When I come to the exhibition, it’s because I do it to have some fun.”

    “Whereas, Pacquiao at his age, which is sad, has to fight.”

    He also said that there might be a lot of stories going around, but the truth is, he is stable.

    “I have made many smart investments; I own so much properties, I’m well off. Everything I own is paid for.”

    “I did not do it by myself. I want to thank my team.”

    Mayweather Jr. and Pacquiao once squared off back in 2015. A match that was top-billed as the “Fight of the Century.” Mayweather Jr. won via the unanimous decision.
