My dad run a business and everything seems OK (maybe?) now and he just talk about that he want me to take his business. And the problem is I don’t think I can do it. I don’t think I have a manage skill, and even my degrees not relate anything about economics ( My degrees is Japanese and I’m just an OL). When he told about extend his business, I said that it’s OK but just careful in that, because he’s old age and I don’t feel like I can take over the business from him. What should I do now? Should I take risk and run his business or should I told him that I’m not suitable( atleast that what I feel about me…) I know that the business world is very cruel, we have to step on the others to sell our products. And somehow I don’t think I can’t do it or have another method to continue run family’s business without using cruel ways. I really scared that I will ruin everything. He brings this problem about 5 years ago, so it’s really make me think alot…>.>
I don’t know much about it, but I think you should just talk to him. Sit and talk, have a long and deep conversation. Do it somewhere nice, with no interruption. Clear the air and then I think you’ll be able to do something about it. Either he’ll get your point or you will get inspired. Who knows!?
Firstly, have you ever studied economics? If not, then id suggest you try understanding the basics. Try assisting him as of now. See eventually, the corporate world is cruel. Even if youre an employee, its cruel. And those are things that work life teaches you on the go. In economics, we dont study how to be diplomatic or handle those situations. Its only life thats going to teach you all those lessons.
