it to be the best representation you can possibly find or achieve.
Then you can even raise the bar on yourself and, believe me, you will
never be bored.
That's another great thing about havingyour own business. If you
are bored, you will have no one to blame but yourself, and that
situation won't last long. Some jobs are boring, and there's not much
you can do but leave them. With your own business, you are in
control, which equals more freedom.
Freedom is an interesting word because freedom comes with a
price. Most business owners will work many more hours than their
employees, but I've never heard an entrepreneur say they'd rather
be working for someone else! Ever!
We've all heard about expressing yourself, especially when it
comes to art or the arts. That also applies to business, which I see
as an art form as well. There are many things in common, including
discipline, technique, perseverance and so forth. But it's that
freedom of expression that makesbeing a business owner especially
great. If I have a vision of what I want to do, I go about making it
happen. I don't have to askanyonefor permission, for one thing. It's
my ball game. Granted, I have to follow the laws of the area, zoning
and so forth, but the idea and the power to get it done resides with
me. That's a terrific feeling.
People feel inspired for a reason - inspiration is a motivator.
Frustration occurs when their inspiration is not attended to. If you
have the inspiration and are able to combine it with diligence and
focus, I would advise you to think about owning your own business.
The rewards are greater, and the old saying, "You will reap what you
sow," rings true again. And you will be reaping it. A good thing to
think about.
