30 years ago, it was difficult to spot or hear of a business woman in many countries. They were relegated to the menials of household and had no say in affairs of trade, economic or anything that came with the tag of ‘Thinking’ with it. Humanity has shunned these practices of bias and is now in a phase which recognizes women as equals (though not without some heart burn). Constituting 80% of the consumer market, they simply can’t be left out.

Women have evolved traits that have put them on the comeback course. They are considered better learners and task masters. That is not saying that men don’t have these abilities. It is simply more evident in a woman and it is always there. It can’t burn out if you got to come from behind to win the race.

Leading a balanced life is very important for women. The onus of family welfare is largely on them and they have not shrugged it off. Despite their induction into the business world, they have remained committed to their families. Many women are successful in their business and lead lifestyles which are worth imitable.

At some points in history, knowledge was elitist and even a forbidden concept. In 399 BC, Socrates explained that he was known as the wisest of all men since he understood that he only knew about nothing. Socrates was ultimately executed because of his unyielding questioning to the Athens population to find out how they knew what they knew.

Today, we still ask Socrates questions and have yet to fully understand the answers; nevertheless, technology is bringing us closer and closer.

Science and technology discovered is that the human brain is capable of processing 10,000 to 50,000 units or single words in one minute. But, these are older statistics from the’80s, but new technology studying speed reading combined with brain development research indicates that you can most likely read even faster.

Most high school graduates read 200 words per minute, down from 252 wpm from 25 years ago. College students, only one or two years older, have improved to 120% words per minute simply from having to read so much and the brain practicing reading so much. Regardless, of your starting reading speed, ” increases for 50-60% the first day is more than likely, in two days of reading practice ” you’ve doubled your reading speed.

Entrepreneurs Have a never, Ever Give Up Attitude

One thing entrepreneurs have in common is the ability not to be stopped by problems, but to turn their problems into opportunities. Where other people get stuck in problems, entrepreneurs bounce back with new answers seeing a different way forward.

I once read an article on entrepreneurs in a South African magazine. The author explained some of the characteristics of an entrepreneur and then he relates a story told to him by an entrepreneur who was asked, “What makes entrepreneurs different than the rest of us?”

“Well”, the entrepreneur said,”when I think of entrepreneurs I think of a spider. I once saw a spider spinning his web. He would take a thread – stick it to one side and then walk with it to the other side of where he would like to make his web.

“When he came to the other side the thread broke and the spider had to walk back to the place where he first stuck his thread. He then stuck his thread to the place where it broke off and started walking back to where he wanted to stick the thread. And then, the same thing happened again. The thread broke. The spider went back to the same spot and stuck his thread back again from where it broke, just to start his journey all over again.
