Almost everyone dreams of having their own small business. My cousin John is living the American dream- making money from a chain of Chicago restaurants and being an established business owner. But he must say that getting to where he is now was a tough job.
In our family, it has been a tradition of engaging into small business. My dad used to run a construction company and my uncle used to have a furniture shop, but with the tough times, no one had available work for me. Not until John called me and gave me a job in his first restaurant.
That time, John told me that he got the money to put up the restaurant with him convincing credible investors. Later on, I found out that he just got a small business license for himself. During our first month, all we did was just to clean until the restaurant is all ready to start doing business.
Nothing happened with our first week. With the power going out for almost six hours, our first day became a total disaster. All we did the whole summer was to help the business survive.
Persistence is the only secret that John had. All day and night, he just worked and worked without surrendering. It's like tiny breaks that he collected to become one huge success.
He was even featured on our local newspaper's entertainment section and even became a sponsor to kid's league. Soon enough, he was on his way to putting up his second restaurant, and then the third one. John's career was indeed made up of hard work which made everything much sweeter.
