Chapter 25 – The Incubators
After visiting the chicken coops, Mr. Ernesto led Salimo to a brightly lit room where the air held a constant warmth. Several machines were lined up, their lights gently blinking.
— "These are the incubators," explained the mentor of the PROSPERAR program. "This is where the future is born."“
Salimo approached and saw trays filled with carefully arranged eggs. Each machine maintained controlled temperature and humidity, as if it were the very heart of nature beating within.
The mentor continued:
— “Many young people start with just a few fertile eggs. By using incubators, they can multiply their production in a short time. In three weeks, an egg turns into a chick. And each chick can be sold, raised, or reinvested. This is how small initiatives grow.”
Salimo was amazed. He remembered how, on the streets, he'd fight for just a piece of bread. Now he saw that, with skill and patience, it was possible to transform something as small as an egg into a steady source of income.
—"An incubator isn't just a machine," the mentor added. "It's a factory of opportunities. Those who learn to use it can create jobs, feed families, and build a solid business."“
At that moment, Salimo realized that entrepreneurship was also about knowing how to multiply what was little until it became enough.
You Can: An egg may seem small, but it can be the beginning of a dream that multiplies.
