I have returned: lessons learned on this journey

Dear Sayers,
It's so wild, the last time Minnie entered a post, it was 2014. So much has occurred since that last entry. Let's see, Minnie spent another year vending at markets, however, in September 2015 Minnie suspended market side selling and continued to distribute to friends and family. Minnie learned lessons and skills during her years as a full-time business owner. The funny thing is people tend to use the word entrepreneur or business owner with such enthusiasm and pride, please do not misunderstand me, there are perks in entrepreneurship. Needless to say, there are also aspects of entrepreneurship which people either forget or neglect to mention. These words are work, more work, and more work. Other neglected words are: hard as hell, time consuming, everything falls on you. From my experience small businesses are lots of work! To be successful, you need many assets: the top two are organization and critical thinking skills, with these two skills you will be able to problem solve your way through anything.
