I don’t care how much power, brilliance or oenergy you have, if you don’t harness it and focus it on a specific target and hold it there, you’re never going to accomplish as much as your ability warrants
-Zig Ziglar
Let’s start with what you want like a restaurant or cafe If you are currently employed and want to retire early but wasn’t ready to plunge into business. What are the questions you need to assess before planning to start”
- Have you worked in a restaurant or cafe before?
- Was your family or relatives involved in the restaurant business?
- Do you have a background in food or coffee preparation
If you just love to eat in a restaurant or seat in a cozy cafe every day that doesn’t mean food business is for you.
You need to focus on your God’s given gift, what field you are very good. If you are an accountant I’ll strongly suggest that your first business should be about accounting, Or if you Mechanic you should start with the auto shop business. Again find your gift and grind and grow it. If you start something new like a restaurant, learning the curve will be very long. You’ll be failing for a few months or a few years.
But let’s say you started your business as a freelance accounting service to companies. You can hit the ground running. By next month, you’re earning money. All you have to do id to learn to market your services. If you become good at it you can leverage yourself to other accountants to do the actual accounting so you could do other stuff you want.
Come to think of it, if your accounting business starts humming, you can think of setting up another business perhaps your dream restaurant. But I strongly advise you to look for a business partner whose more knowledgable bout restaurants or coffee shops than you do.
Friend if you really want to build your own business here’s my advice for you: Focus on your core gift. The God-given gift, use it and you will prosper. Always pray to Him.
Always remember to do the right thing even it’s not comfortable. God is always in control and put your faith in HIM.
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
