Let’s get serious for a moment. Now that you’ve defined your vision, write it down and expand upon it by considering
following;
•Why do you want to go into business for yourself? •Do you have or can you get a sustainable customer base? •What are your start up costs going to be? *While relatively cheap to start up, all costs need to be considered. •Mentally, how we doing? Owning your own Company versus working for someone else is difference between night and day and so are some of people you will be dealing with. We will touch on this further. •Have you listed what you see your strong points as being? Your weak points? •Are you prepared to step out of your “comfort” zone to make this work?
My friends, list is endless but you get idea. Earlier, I alluded to how you’re doing mentally and now I would like to amplify that statement. Regardless of how well you’re equipped, no one can do it all. There are literally thousands of books to help you understand ecommerce, owning your own business, self help and improvement and list goes on and on.
Essentially what I’m asking is for you to think about what you intend to do for you. The very thought of that sends some people into a panic because they’ve never given it much thought before. If you don’t find a diversion outside of your office environment you’ll grow stiff and those creative juices we’re trying to supercharge will just fizzle and your business along with it.
What do you like to do for fun? Take a walk, ride a bike, see friends – DO NOT cut yourself off from world! For me, I perform Tai Chi and believe you me, it helps! Afterwards, I feel refreshed, rejuvenated and ready to take on world once again but more importantly it preserves my VISION!
The worst thing you can do is to loose your identity in your business. Keep it you but keep it separate. Remember, we’re looking to fulfill a dream and create a lifestyle for ourselves free of burdens we’re so desperately moving away from.
