10 Steps to your business success.
After you have definitely made up your mind that you really want to do a business of your own, next important step is to choose a one that is right for you - a business that you like and enjoy doing.
Your success will depend on choice you make. Therefore it is very important to give this matter very serious thought.
Here are 10 steps that will point you in right direction and lead you to success.
First - Make a list of business ideas. The list should include your 1)Special training, 2)Hobbies, 3)Strengths, 4)Field of expertise, 5) Special skills, 6) Special interests, 7)Personal experiences, 8)Education and anything else that you can think of.
Do not be critical at this point. Just make list no matter how crazy it may seem to you. Do not judge it or analyze it at this point. Concentrate. Spend 10 to 15 minutes on this project.
Second. Evaluate your ideas. Read list very carefully several times. Now select FIVE of best ideas from your list. Take your time doing this. Write down those five ideas in a separate sheet of paper. Keep those five ideas and mull them over in your mind.
Third. Take a rest. Leave list alone for a day or two. Give your mind a chance to work. Your ultimate aim is to select best one out of five.
The reason for leaving list alone for a day or two is to give your subconscious mind a chance to work on it. It will be working, behind scene,in background without your conscious awareness.
When you return to list in a day or two, you should have a clear idea of what best one of 5 is. You will find that your decision making will be easier. If you are still unsure, give it more time.
Fourth. By now, you should be able to pick a topic or subject that you like most - one you are passionate about. Now make that decision and pick out best one out of five.
Fifth. It's research time. Find out everything about your chosen field. Research at library, Internet, Newspapers and magazines. Talk to people in field. Go all out and find as much information as you can.
