Being your own boss

Posted on www.jennyvidizon.blogspot.com

Working for yourself is hard, making your own money takes time and being your own boss means you have to take destiny in your own hands.

As scary as it seems, this is what business owners live for. I was never content to sit idly by waiting for someone to tell me what to do. If anything, I am the type of person who runs ahead, even if it meant going into uncharted territory. This often means figuring things out on your own and making the most sound possible decision for every situation that may arise.

And that's the difference between business leaders, they are built with a hard exterior ready to face any unexpected complications from the decisions they made. But I've learned that a decision in business is never a mistake, it's either a decision with positive results or a decision that you have to work your way through.

I know a lot of people who have hopes in starting their business and anything new is always scary. I always tell them "go for it," in the long run doing what you love is the best decision anyone can make for themselves. Self doubt is always going to be there, it is there for me even after 5 years. But all in all, I like setting my own schedule, sewing all day, meeting people and seeing the brides face when she tries on the dress she has always hoped to wear on her wedding day.

And I know no one said owning your own business was easy and taking the challenge is the first step. You would be surprised how happy you feel when you do, even if you decide to keep your day job, you are starting something new and special that you can be proud of. You will also be surprised about how quickly you want to work on your business on a full-time basis and how much day dreaming you will do at work once you take the first step.

You will find out soon enough that daydreaming while you own your own business is easy, choosing which dream you want to fulfill first is the hard part. : )
