3. Make a start. Get some competed tasks in bag. Start by completing some very small and easy tasks to create an early sense of achievement. Celebrate and record these achievements. Establish an early sense of progress being made. 3. Make sure that each task has a clear finishing point so that it is obvious when has been done. Record all of them as soon as they are completed and add them to growing list of achievements. Seeing list of tasks completed growing steadily and list of tasks still to be done shrinking steadily gives a real boost to confidence and a renewed shot of enthusiasm.

4. Carry on clocking up jobs done. Before you realise it you will be well on way to overall completion. Just as super tanker moves imperceptibly, but speeds up little by little, so with your mammoth project. Slowly but surely you will build up a momentum that is cannot be stopped. Each little task builds up a bit more speed. Each job done is a slight movement in right direction.

One word of warning, though. Just as it is difficult to change direction in a super tanker once it is up to speed, so it is with a large project. If you set off in wrong direction it is very difficult to get back onto track once you are at full steam. So make sure your vision is right one and make sure that your aims and goals along way are all correct before you set sail.

The best example of this is your local supermarket. How many brands of toothpaste do you see? While it's likely that this'll reduce price point per item, if you can gain trust of an established distributor or find another way to efficiently market to a consumer audience then you'll be able to turn tables against established brands and gain market share.

7. How big are barriers to entry?

So you've got this great idea. The only problem... there are a dozen other companies just like one you plan to start. USP (Unique Selling Proposition) or not, you're going to find it very hard to break into this new arena.

Not only should you find out how much it's going to cost to get in, you should be find out if this entry is sustainable. Your competition is going to react... question is how. Can you keep up fight? Can you turn tables somehow or will you find yourself outmaneuvered at every turn?

Furthermore, how quickly can you get in? If you can get your foothold quickly enough then you may be able to establish your niche before anyone notices.

8. Do you have any kind of unique resources for this market?

A resource is: * Anything that you own or can control

* Something that makes you stand out from crowd

* Something that can be counted on, is reliable and sustainable.

* Something that helps you satisfy customers.

Some examples: Distributor channels Cost advantages Business relationships The Public's perception Licenses or rights Technology or patents Unique skills

Conclusion: Now that you've had a chance to look over questions and hopefully evaluate your own ideas... you've had some new thoughts on how to make your business unique. It's time to put those thoughts to test and go forth with a new perspective!
