Director of Public Affairs of Parliament, Madam Kate Addo, has urged young entrepreneurs to strike a healthy balance between their primary jobs and side businesses, emphasizing that side hustles must complement rather than disrupt their core responsibilities.<\/strong>
\nSpeaking at the 2025 edition of Side Hustle Connect, she encouraged participants to appreciate every milestone, regardless of size, noting that many great achievements often start from modest beginnings backed by consistency and hard work.
\nMadam Addo underscored honesty as \u201cthe most valuable currency in business,\u201d and advised emerging entrepreneurs to remain transparent, resilient and compassionate toward themselves during setbacks.
\nAccording to her, failure should not deter anyone from pursuing their goals.
\n\u201cIt is better to try and fail than not to try at all,\u201d she noted, urging participants to view challenges as lessons meant to strengthen their entrepreneurial journey.<\/p>\n
