I still maintain that starting and running your own business is probably the most rewarding thing one can experience. Thinking up a new concept, planning the model, putting it all together, tasting that very first success, repeating it, satisfying consumer’s needs … Boy, what could be better?
All right, I can think of maybe one or two little things that may be better, but managing your very own business is a lot more lasting. The feeling and the satisfaction of having done what you have dreamt of for long is much greater than having not done it at all. But we all want to be successful in our lives, and a lot depends on your vision and expectations of the business you launch to finally term it as a success or failure eventually.
It will not be easy, and no success comes cheaply. You will need to work long hours, take a lot of stress, lie awake some nights, solve problems and challenges daily, go into debt – all without any guarantee for success. So why do it then? Because your own business will offer the following:
1) You’re the one in control.
2) You get to build something.
3) You get to help people.
4) You may have the option of a more flexible lifestyle.
5) You might change the world.
6) You might make more money.
Take my word for it! It is all worth it at the end. What are you waiting for? Resign today and start living a real good life.
