Is A DEGREE really needed to run an online eBay Business?

I have a BSN in RN nursing. I find that running an online business is much like organizing my work as a nurse. I have to plan the activities of the patients that I receive each day.

Nurses have to assess their day at the beginning of each shift. An online business person has to do the same, they have to look at how they are going to handle their business for the time they have allowed. Whether it be creating more listings, discounting listings, reading emails and messages, packaging orders, running to the Post office, or answering the phone or taking care of drop in visitors or household chores.

After assessing all that will be needs to be done, an online buisinessman, just like nurses, can start to plan their day. That doesn’t mean it will go smoothly, as planned! Life is not perfect, interruptions will happen.

Sometimes, nurses find they can delegate some of their duties to other nurses or aids. But, more often than not, just like online people, nurses find it is better to do it them selves.

At the end of the day, we can look back, just like nurses and evaluate whether we got enough done. Or, evaluate and plan for what needs to be done the next day.

So, point in point, it does not matter what type of degree you possess. You can be a high school drop out, a high school graduate, a college graduate, or possess a bachelor degree or higher. Everything that we have learned, can be applied to what ever we are doing at the moment, whether it is nursing, flipping burgers, or working an online busines.
