Building your castle

Every business starts the same way as when you start building your own castle. And because nobody builds the real old-fashioned castles anymore (although these giant houses with 60 rooms are getting close as being the same size), lets reduce this metaphor into building a nice house just for you and maybe some kids (?).

Anyway ….. when you start building your own house, you start with your plan and from there on the start of building the foundation.

The start-up of a business is exactly the same. You start with your plan and than you start building your foundation. You create your vision, mission, decide who your clients are going to be, etc.

A lot of people barely look at this part. Nasty thing about that is that you won’t get very far. Believe me, I have tried it for years and with me many others. You can have a great product, you can wing it at thinking “I bought it, many others will buy it too”, you can harass friends and family, you can work soo hard and the results years later …. you spend a lot of time in earning a meager incomer.

I even give a 14 week course about it. 14 Weeks just to start a business. Who needs that? You can do it in 2 weeks, right?

Yes, you are probably right. If you work on it every day, for several hours per day, keep focussed, don’t get distracted, and all the other things you are willing to do.

But who wants to do that? Who can do that? You already have a full time job, children (maybe the hubby is one of them or there is no hubby) and the entire household to take care of.

But can you give it 30 minutes a day? Just as a start?

Let’s start with 30 minutes ….
