Meet the Ghanaian Entrepreneur Whose Dad Trained Her to Be a Carpenter

Adzigbli “Nana” Ama Comfort, a furniture architect and designer from Ghana, has become famous for her skills and creativity in the field of carpentry – a male dominated industry. Her dad trained her before he died, and now she is the CEO and founder of Namas Decor GH – one of the fastest growing furniture design shops in the world!
Nana, who is from Ghana, has always dreamed of becoming a lawyer since she was a young child. As a young adult, she also experimented with various career opportunities in modeling, acting, being a television personality, and marketing but she felt like those could not give her the satisfaction she wanted or even generate enough profit for her and her family.

That’s when she remembered what her father told her before he died. “He said that I will never be successful in any career aside carpentry,” she said in an interview with Ghanaian blogger, Edward Asare. “He said I was born to lead the feminine generation into creativity.”

That’s when she decided to venture into carpentry with the knowledge and training she received from helping her father, who was a carpenter himself. She now runs one of the fastest growing carpentry and furniture design shops in the world.

That quotation aptly reveals the secret of dominating any market - the ability to do your duty and a little more! The '...a little more' is even more important than doing your duty because that's what really gives you a competitive advantage. Its not just enough to do your duty, you'll have to do it a little more if you want to defile the odds and dominate the market.
