WARNING!
These comments are generalisations and the first thing you need to recognise is that you are unique and especially so as you are considering starting a business and making changes to your life.
There are no right or wrong answers to this and use this to help you think about what you are doing and what sort of team, support, services you need to help you make your business a success. Recognise what it is that you are great at and what it is about starting that business and working for yourself is all about for you. We hope this quiz helps you along the way….
Less than 20
You are well equipped for a life in business – you can work on your own as well as with others. You are willing to do what it takes and bounce back from setbacks. Make sure you don’t try to do it all your self and think about enlisting help and support where you need it and where you are less happy or motivated.
20 -35
You are going to love some of the aspects of business and struggle and hate others. No problem … just recognise what it is you love and what it is you hate and make sure you get help with the bits you hate….. outsource it, buy it in, employ someone ….. most importantly do something about it.
Higher than 35
There is probably more you dislike about business than like and understand just what those things are. It does not mean you should not start, certainly not, it just means you need to start it the right way to suit you. What partners or help do you need? Do you want to work with someone else? What support, advice do you need to help you?
Now you have started on your journey and have already learnt so much more about yourself …..remember you are not on your own ….. there is lots of help and support out there.
Just give us a call or email …. we are happy to help
