Create a Business You LoveWritten by Damien Senn
So you have entrepreneurial aspirations, but you’re stuck in a job working for someone else. You wake up, commute to work, work hard, pay your bills and then come home exhausted. You repeat pattern for another four days, becoming increasingly tired as week progresses. By time Friday night comes around you are absolutely shattered requiring every second of your weekend just to recover! And just as you start to feel as if you have your life back, your alarm clock goes off on Monday morning, you drag your feet out of bed and you repeat cycle. Does this scenario sound all too familiar? Is this way you want to spend rest of your working life? Controlling your thoughts. So how do you start to break this monotonous existence? You do so with a single thought. It is said that each one of us has 60,000 thoughts a day, 55,000 of which were exactly same thoughts as we had yesterday. So I am going to place a simple thought in your mind right now; “ You have potential to create a profitable business that you are truly passionate about, that fulfils you creatively and that delivers a lot of good in world. “ If that message resonates with you, you may like to re-read it and hold thought in your mind for a second time. Really try and experience meaning in this message. Not just intellectually but emotionally as well. You may also like re-think this thought again tomorrow. And if it feels good tomorrow, you may like to add it to your habitual thoughts. Give your new thought some support Once you have held thought of running your own business in your own mind and you are comfortable with it, you need to start expanding dynamics of thought. Ask yourself following questions ·What sort of business would you like to run? ·Would it be a full time business or just a part time one? ·What would you call it? ·How much time would you like to devote to it? ·Who would be your target market? ·Who can you get involved to help you get it started?

Thanks for your interest.Part One: Discovery Part Two: Planning Part Three: Development Part Four: Implementation Now we turn corner to our final phase: Re-Discovery. Last year marked 200th anniversary of expedition of Lewis & Clark, and much has been written about their remarkable journey up Missouri River and on to Pacific. This band of explorers was aptly named The Corps of Discovery. In reality, The Corps made two trips, second being their return. It is likely that unheralded return journey was more revealing and insightful than outbound leg, offering them a chance to re-discover with clearer vision what they had already seen. It is in this frame of mind that your organization will embark on Re-Discovery Phase of building an effective management system. Management Policies and Procedures The Re-Discovery Phase completes loop of entire project, and then overlaps with The Discovery Phase of next year. Therein lies "never-ending cycle" of project. The Re-Discovery Phase allows your organization to migrate from a "fix it and done!" mentality to one of continuous improvement. In Re-Discovery/Discovery Phases you will always be reviewing and assessing your organization for ways to improve performance, compliance, and effectiveness.
