Entrepreneurs are driven from a deep feeling
within to do what they love. Their minds are consumed with creativity;
adventure and the desire to see what they envision come to life.
They think past boundaries, turn fear into faith,
generate original ideas, explore unexplored options and think rationally
through obstacles. Because entrepreneurs love what they do, they experience
gains such as personal satisfaction, financial abundance, security and
self-fulfillment. It is these rewards that affect their home life and
personality drastically in positive ways.
The importance of entrepreneurship is that its
operation is targeted at providing human needs and a successful attempt becomes
an enterprise due to much appreciation of the value it creates in the society. In
starting up a business that will last, an entrepreneur uses challenges faced in
the society as a factor to his business creation and provides solution to those
challenges. Entrepreneurs have different motivating factors surrounding their
vision and motives and acknowledging a need is a usual testimony of a
successful one. While others are just in the business due to their observation
of a successful entrepreneur and desire to make a living for themselves,
therefore venturing into a business without passion to solve a problem in their
given environment but to meet to their own need and desires. The fear of
starting a business is a factor that one needs to consider critically to
understand how entrepreneurs break even from a conceived idea or vision into an
enterprise.
The rise of organizations and businesses in the
world has raised questions in our minds on their functionality, purpose of existence
and relevance to the economy. With an estimate of over 500 million registered
and recognized companies in the world, one question we should consider is the
value they create and their impact in worlds and nation economy. Value in
business operation is essential to man bringing satisfaction to their needs and
demands; it is also relevant to nation building because it reduces
responsibilities and burdens from nation leaders and helping promote
development in every given environment. The operation of a business should focus
on improving a way of life and any entrepreneurs who operate in this line of
thought has success and wealth as a reward, because in the business world, the
value you create attracts the people and they generate your wealth through
brand loyalty and referrals.
Nigeria and the world today is blessed to have
entrepreneurs who has transformed lives through their positive thoughts and
vision. Their business operation has contributed to the socio and economical
growth in the society and nation at large. Successful stories from top business
mogul like Alhaji Alinko Dangote, Femi Otedola, Mike Adenuga has shown that
Nigerians can establish a vision that will compete with the world brands of
today, and in that hall of fame we recognize another great and effective
entrepreneur: Dr Lanre Shonekan the GMD of Lashone links group of companies. Who
through his various subsidiaries in business has given much value to life both
in Nigeria, Africa and the rest of the world. A group of companies which comprises of 7 subsidiaries
has become a household name due to the value it gives to the society. The Lashone
Links Real Estate and Property Limited provides shelter for every man through
affordable housing schemes. Their housing estate covers across different region
and sectors in Nigeria, enabling subscribers to purchase affordable homes
without stress at a comfortable payment plan that fits their financial
schedule. This business solution was created due to the deficit in the Nigerian
housing sector which has showed governments inability to provide housing for
its citizens, which is indeed value creation and a true definition of an
entrepreneur that has been called to serve.
The tale of every successful entrepreneur begins
with a heart of service and bringing solutions to challenges at any given time.
Dr lanre Shonekan has started a journey in that path, with just 4 years in
business has recorded huge success and created a brand that is acknowledged as
a solution to housing deficiency and shelter for all. Lashone links group has
embarked on a journey that is targeted at meeting humans need and has charted a
cause that clearly expresses the responsibility of every human as a solution to
the needs of their environment and this act requires support and emulation in
making our nation and world a better place.
Every entrepreneur has an idea but
few get it right.
