Brainstorm your business idea.

Sport * Gym * Sporting goods store

How will your business function?
My Sporting goods store, ‘Aussie Sports’, is going to be an Internet based business. My store will sell sporting goods, clothing and footwear all around Australia. I will rent a warehouse in Bayswater as it is an affordable area and is close to all amenities (post office, bank ect). My business is going to be much easier to run so I will not need staff I can work the agreed hours with my partner.

Describe how and why you came up with this idea for a business.
I came up with the idea for a sporting goods store by thinking about my skills and hobbies, I believe that I have great skills in the sporting goods area and I most definitely enjoy sport.

Why is your personality suited to this business?
My personality suites this business perfectly because I have extensive skills in the sporting goods industry and I thoroughly enjoy working in a sporting goods environment. My life has evolved around sport, so to own a store that sells sporting goods is perfect.

    The Role Of Fate And Free Will In Macbeth

    In William Shakespeare's play Macbeth, the reader is left to ponder the question of whether fate or free will is responsible for Macbeth's actions. Some people believe that the three sisters control Macbeth's fate and that he is as much a victim as King Duncan and his grooms, while others believe that Macbeth, alone, is responsible for his actions. Although fate has a part in Macbeth's decisions, the story is a tragedy of character. The witches prophesy that Macbeth will someday be king and Lady Macbeth rouses his hidden aspirations and desires, but it is Macbeth's ambition that gives rise to the poor decisions he makes to fulfill the prophecy.…

    Josh Hamilton

    One of the most important beliefs that Americans share is that personal striving results in upward economic mobility. The foundation of this belief is the essence of what is known as the “American dream”. For those who follow this dream, the conclusion must be made that one can overcome any obstacle with the necessary talent and determination. One of the most popular means in increasing one’s social status is through sports. Sports are ideal for understanding the pursuit of the American dream because achievement and success is highly emphasized in all sports. Also, sports figures frequently play lead role in the “rags to riches” stories Americans hear from the media. No one in sports today can carry the title of rags to riches to rags to riches again as does Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton. Born on May 20th 1981, Josh was the first overall pick in the 1999 Major League Baseball Draft by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. He was considered a blue chip prospect until injuries and a drug addiction derailed his career in 2001.…
