Screw The Naysayers Podcast

People often ask me how I found the courage to quit my job and start my own business. A lot of those people assume I had everything figured out when I quit. Nothing could be further from the truth. I started my business with zero customers, zero products, and only a vague idea. I made the leap into a very uncertain future yet somehow it didn’t seem that crazy at the time. You see I knew in my heart that I needed to be my own boss.  I’ve been self employed now for 31 years and counting. In fact I often joke that I am chronically unemployable. Mostly because the thought of working for someone else makes me want to throw up. But make no mistake the life of an entrepreneur is not a fit for everyone. A lot of people make the leap telling themselves that it is a lifestyle that they want. In many cases, people are attracted to the freedom and independence, but fail to take into account the key attributes of successful entrepreneurs. Today I want to share with you 5 signs that you may be ready to be your own boss.
