Chief Executive of the McDan Group of Companies, Daniel McKorley, has urged the youth to be ready for challenges in their bid to venture into entrepreneurship.
According to him, “life comes with turbulence, every stage of your life is turbulence as a student.”
“As a young entrepreneur, every minute of your life you face turbulence but the question is, how do you navigate around the turbulence that you face? That makes you thick, that makes you where you are” he explained on Tuesday.
He was speaking at the McDan Youth Connect conference themed 'Impacting Youth Development with Entrepreneurship.'
Addressing students of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), the businessman encouraged the youth to be ready for such uncertainties.
For him “the responsibility is on you, you have to be responsible for your own life, you have to be responsible for your own future, you have to be responsible for the world around you.”
“Responsibility comes in many forms but the word responsibility is what can make and unmake you. Responsibility doesn’t have age, you can have the best Parent in the world, you can have the best Teachers or Lecturers in the world, you can attend the best school like KNUST, but if you are not responsible, what happens?
