Once you discover that “you are the one to run the show“, now it’s time to get things rolling and start your business. However, you may be reluctant and unsure of this whole owning your own business idea. To help you with the transition of working for someone and then becoming your own boss, here are some words of inspiration- the good things about owning a business.

Boredom is nonexistent– No longer can you stare at the computer, you will work with motivation.

Constant challenge– Because your days are never completely the same, you always have some sort of a challenge awaiting you. This could be anything and everything from being interview for the local newspaper, developing the business plan, or creating a new window display.

Time is your own– The longer and harder you work, the more you reap the benefits, not someone else. If you have an appointment or are running late, the boss (you) won’t care.

Create an ideal work environment– The environment of your business is what you make it to be. If you want candles in the bathroom, by all means, have candles in the bathroom.

Never again will you have to beg for a promotion or raise– Need more money? With hard work and careful planning, you can make it happen.

Work fits your life– Now is your chance to develop a career that fits into your life, not the your life fits into. You probably won’t be working less, but you’ll be working when you want to. This means that you will be able to attend that niece’s birthday party or the children’s plan.

No boss– You are the boss and it’s great! You make the agenda, create a schedule, hire and fire, and reap the benefits. Now nothing is better than this.
