Last year, you said this would be the year you mustered up the courage to start that business. But progress seems too distant.
As an aspiring entrepreneur, you have fallen into a trap that many others like you fall into—the trap of over-analysis paralysis. And even though your high level of planning is crucial for startup success, it has made taking action overwhelming.
While there may be many things keeping you stuck in the planning stage, a significant barrier that could stand in your way is fear. Fear of what? The fear of failure, experiencing financial difficulties or having to rebuild your professional network.
Your fears are valid, but they don’t need to stop you from just doing it!
The startup mindset is an action-oriented business mentality that emphasizes input, rather than output. Your inputs include all the factors within your control, such as your vision, skills, knowledge, network, and ability to work hard. Focusing on these instead of uncontrollable outcomes keeps you mentally tough and ready for any challenge.
Don’t go another day, or live the rest of your life, regretting not having at least tried to get your business off the ground. Of course, sacrifices will need to be made. But that is the reasonable price you pay for stepping outside your comfort zone and following your passion.
