Some say you don’t choose your business but your business chooses you…
What does this mean I hear you cry? Well how often do you listen to the stories of truly successful entrepreneurs and how their original ideas turned out to be something very different when they found success:
- Facebook was originally FaceMash, a site to compare two photos of people and vote for who looked best )
- YouTube started out as an on-line video dating site called TuneInHookUp
It happens all the time and this is what I am talking about.
Your future success in business is driven by a number of aspects all about YOU:
- Your SKILLS – which of your current skills are the most relevant to get your idea to business quickly. If the skills you need aren’t there yet, then start learning
- Your INTERESTS – if your idea isn’t something that peaks your interest then you should think long and hard before leaping in. It’s much harder to be passionate about something that isn’t REALLY interesting to you
- Your COMMITTMENT – if you’re looking for a passive income then opening a retail store that needs you present and available day in day out is likely not for you. Match your committment to the idea you pursue to ge the most out of it
The successful business that will be borne of your idea is in there waiting to come out. Just make sure that when it comes around you’ve matched it up with your SKILLS, INTERESTS and COMMITTMENT to ensure your success – the business chooses you.
Where there is a mismatch in these factors then you may need to look more closely at the MOTIVATION section here to give you that extra boost.
