When you are
considering a life transformation and you want to take the next step in
improving yourself and doing your own thing, there are some questions you
should ask yourself and there are some necessary answers you should be able to
give convincingly before going ahead to start your own venture. There is need
for assurance that you are capable of doing whatever you are planning towards
and doing it rightly. Here are some questions you should evaluate and stay convinced
about before quitting your job.
CAN YOU SURVIVE
FAILURE: many business owners and successful people have failed at several
attempts before getting it right. You need to ask yourself if you can survive
if you fail. You might even succeed at your first attempt and not make enough
profit like you proposed. Can you live with that? That is one question you
should have a yes to before starting out.
CAN I DO IT ALL ALONE:
most successful business owners started as a sole proprietor, with no one to
support or encourage them. You have to be certain you do not need anyone to
encourage you before you can do what you have to do.
CAN I MULTI TASK: as a
new business starter, you likely cannot afford an assistant or accountant to
carry out different roles for you. You need to be sure you can do different
things at the same time and multi task if possible so that your business can
have all it takes to make it a success.
ARE YOU A GOAL SETTER:
you need to channel the risk taking and the goal getter side of you. Your business
is most likely to stay at the same point if you are not ready to take the
necessary steps and opportunities needed to make you a success.
CAN I BE A GOOD ROLE
MODEL: you also need to identify how efficient you can be at identifying people
that can work with you efficiently and people that can compliment your
business. Know if you can be a good role
model and teacher to people aspiring to take the bold step towards achieving
their goals too.
These are the questions
every potential entrepreneur should ask themselves before setting up a
business.
