Being a Businessman
Not everyone is ready to be a businessman. It takes a special talent. Studies have shown that successful managers share certain characteristics including an overpowering need to achieve. Managers tend to be more creative and innovative than the average person. They are self-confident and not easily defeated. They are risk-takers. They welcome responsibility and more willing and able to make decisions. They are also able to learn from their mistakes. Successful managers, I am sure, possess an optimistic and cooperative outlook, and usually get along well with people. They have well developed oral and written communication skills. Moreover, they are patient and able to wait out. They are often called “workaholics”. They will continue to work despite headaches or other “aches” which might keep others away from the job.

WHAT IS ECONOMICS
Unlike history, mathematics, English and chemistry, economics is a subject that most students encounter only briefly before they begin college. Economics is a basic discipline, not an applied subject like accounting or drafting in which specific skills are taught.
Economics has some similarities to mathematics because logical reasoning and mathematical tools are used in it extensively. It also has some similarities to history because economics studies people as they interact in social groups.
Like chemistry, economics employs the scientific method, although some of economics has a descriptive rather than an analytical flavour. Finally, like English grammar, economics has a few simple rules and principles, but from these principles economics can derive many conclusions.
Economics is the science of making choices. Individuals must decide whether to study another hour or to go for a walk, whether to buy a six-pack of Pepsi or a 0,5 gallon of milk at the grocery, whether to choose fire fighting or teaching as an occupation and whether to play golf or to watch television for an afternoon of recreation. As a group, people must also choose through their governments whether to build a dam or to repair highways with their taxes, whether to invest money to business or to expand national parks.
The common element in all these decisions is that every choice involves a cost.
In fact, economics is the study of the choice that people make and the actions that they take in order to make the best use of scarce resources in meeting their wants.
