Are You Suitable for self-employment?


A recent poll conducted by Yahoo! Small Business
has shown that almost 3 out of 4 Americans have considered
starting their own business. In fact, more than 2,200
adults surveyed, more than half (51 percent) said that
I wish to make their small business within the next 5 years.

Clearly, entrepreneurship is a part of the American dream.
But everyone is fit to be his boss?
Here's a question of 10 quizzes that can give you a quick
idea of ​​your chances of success if you decide to quit
alone. Keep track of the score on a separate sheet
of paper. Be honest. Give yourself a "2" for each "yes"
response, a "1" for each "enough" and a "0" for each "no".

1. Are you organized? You like to make lists and prioritize
your day?

[] Yes [] A little '[] No

2. Are you task-oriented? Can focus on a specific task
until it is completed? Or often leave things
incomplete?

Your rating:

Okay, add the total. Remember, you should have
given yourself a "2" for each "yes", a "1" for
any "pretty" and a "0" for each "no".

11-20 = You're certainly suitable for self-employment.

= 6-10 may be suitable for this, but should learn more

Self-employment is not for everyone. It often requires
highly motivated self-starter type person
