"When one door closes
another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the
closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.

Business Videos
"A
business (also known as enterprise or firm) is
an
organization engaged in the
trade
of
goods,
services, or both to
consumers. Businesses are predominant in
capitalist
economies, where most of them are
privately owned and administered to earn
profit to increase the
wealth
of their owners. Businesses may also be
not-for-profit or
state-owned. A business owned by multiple individuals may be
referred to as a
company, although that term also has a more precise meaning.
The
etymology of "business" relates to the state of being busy
either as an individual or society as a whole, doing commercially
viable and profitable work. The term "business" has at least three
usages, depending on the scope — the singular usage to mean a
particular organization; the generalized usage to refer to a
particular
market sector, "the music business" and compound forms such as
agribusiness; and the broadest meaning, which encompasses all
activity by the community of suppliers of goods and services.
However, the exact definition of business, like much else in the
philosophy of business, is a matter of debate and complexity of
meanings."
