re: Making the leap. |

Greetings Tim; great questions. In my experience you will know when it is the right time. You will have a minimum of 12 months savings to cover your personal expenses along with the burning desire and massive passion to make your vision profitable. You will only leave your 'comfortable income' when you know your happiness lies more in the new venture. You will be overwhelmed with conviction that it is time.
As long as it provides income, it is not a liability. Your attitude and desires will dictate if it is preventing you from expanding into your full potential. Sounds like you are listening to your gut. I'm hoping other business owners will share their pros and cons and help you make this awesome decision. When you are ready; nothing will stop you. We can't afford to allow anything to get in our way; our livelihood and retirement depend upon it.
Until then, consider doing the start-up while still employed, using whatever vaca or sick time you are eligible for, watch the economy, make certain your projections are accurate and that you have a strong market to appeal to. If, however, you've spent the last year putting the plan together and you are ready to sever one for the other; I commend you for taking the leap.
Allow your family to participate as much as feasibly possible so they understand why it will take so many hours away from them. Wishing you greatness in all you do...CSeaPrivate Reply to CSea Perkins (new win) |
