WOMEN IN BUISINESS

 Recently I have been helping a friend who is opening up a sweet shop, her very first business.  The dreams and hope for success are at an all time high and the excitement is every where.  The “Sweet Shop” will be selling doughnuts, rolls and coffee. All items are home made and warm out of the oven as you get them. It has been named THE SHARON SWEET SHOP cute name eh?

   My involvement in the shop is purely grunt work. I have washed, scrubbed,cleaned everything that could be cleaned….I have in my own way tried to support and hold up my friend.

  You know, I wonder,Why  don’t people who have “made” it  in the business world  help out the new starter ups?..especially where women are concerned. I see that there is discrimination against women who are trying to make it on their own, in this day and age, that is a pity.  People like Oprah Winfrey(?), she has been an asset to so many, but what about helping other women who are trying just as hard, using her as an example to become a success in business. Hey, that would be a great idea for a show….Even a mention on  her show would help someone be noticed…Look what she has done for the  unheard of authors, one mention of their book generates much excitement and the author is no longer unknown..Why not do the same with other fields?  just a thought….

   I am not a woman who cares to be in business, I’d rather frequent a place than own it..but I certainly love seeing women conquering the “man’s” world known as business..We are just as able, we also have an unknown secret…common sense, plus we can multi task. Two of my daughters own and successfully run very lucrative businesses and the third is planning her enterprise as we speak…They are always available to someone who needs their help and guidance.. That is what I am talking about. A  large tree is supported by its roots…..So be someones “root” and see the tree growing big and strong producing many branches and much fruit…

   This is just an old lady venting, thanx for listening and remember, HUG EACH OTHER……
