If you’re looking for something to do today then stop procrastinating because it’s “I Want to Start My Own Business” Day! If you’ve ever said that statement before, today is the day to take your first step toward that goal! Let’s get right into celebrating “I Want to Start My Own Business” Day!

WHY IS THIS A HOLIDAY?

Well, think about how many times you’ve heard people say that phrase before… there’s a reason why it’s in quotation marks. 😉 People say it all the time and never act upon it, whether or not they have a strong desire to own a business or not. They mention it and forget about it before taking a step toward that goal. So sure, we could just spend today pointing our fingers at procrastinators or we could make it a day of action where you finally put into play a plan on how you’re going to reach your goal of running your own business. It can be a struggle to get started but if you don’t have a plan to achieve your goal then it’s just a passing dream. And if it’s really something that you want, you’ll just end up beating yourself up over not taking any action. But if you were to at least look into what it would take to get started, write out your definite goal and start mapping out your steps toward it then you’ll have a new purpose in life.

You won’t be a procrastinator, you’ll be doing what you want and before you know it you’ll have as much freedom as you desire. Can you imagine what it would be like to be your own boss? You set your hours, you decide what work you want to do and give the rest to your employees. Image what it will feel like to reach your goals! Just don’t abuse your power. 😉

HOW TO CELEBRATE

So, how can you celebrate today? Well, if you are one of those people who really do want to start their own business then your first step is to write down your goal. What is it you want to do with your business? What product or service are you going to offer? How are you going to make it unique? When you get it on paper you can start to mold it into exactly what you want your future business to become and it will be a constant reminder every time you see that paper. The next step would be to write out a plan of action. How are you going to reach that end goal? What are the steps you need to take to ensure your business succeeds? What kind of resources are you going to need and who can help you along the way? You can break these steps down to the simplest of tasks and put them in order so you know what you need to do from start to finish. And by the time you’re done you’ll know exactly what lies ahead of you. Can you guess what the next step is? DO IT! You have your goal mapped out, you know how you’re going to get there and now all you have to do is actually start doing what you planned to do. If you broke the steps down into individual tasks then just start trying to tackle a task a day or each week. Stick to it even when you are a little discouraged and you’ll have your business up and running before you know it! Have a great day and I can’t wait to see the grand opening of your business!
