There are many small businesses that I even know from my country that started with humbled beginnings and now are booming like never before. The secret is starting with what you have no matter how small is the amount.

The moral I got from this story is that we should not despise the days of our humble beginnings. Don't procastinate. Start with whatever you have. Persevere and you would grow big.

I just remembered that I used to visit that small jollibee ice-cream parlor in Quiapo when I was in college. I would always order a burger and banana split and sundae. It's a small place and my admirer always treats me there lol. The burger was being served on a small plate and not packed like it is now.

All we need in business is belief and being strategic. It is not about the size of the start up capital. It is about the size of your ambition, dedication and hardwork.

This should be a motivation to all, that no matter how small you start, it does not define how the business would go. What matters is how much hard work and commitment you put into it.

The way you start doesn't matter but the vision you have. That would determine of you are going to stay in that small level for a long time.

Another one of such businesses is KFC. Bernie Sanders is a perfect model of perseverance to achieve success in business. There is no boundaries to our visions. We just need to make a move.
