Because of the terrible current fiscal climate many people have been sacked from their job through no flaw of their own...simply a set of shocking conditions...they are now itching their heads thinking where now? In the back of their brain they have been thinking - "should I establish my own security camera business?" However where do you go for advice like that?
Accordingly how do you run a new venture? You've always been the one who is told what to do. Immediately the shoe is truly on the other foot - you give the orders now. However what orders do you give to your employees? What signals do you send out? How do you know if what you are doing or saying is the appropriate thing for your new security camera business? It was painless before...the boss spoke...and you carried out what he/she said then you got remunerated at the end of the day. Having your own venture is a little harder, if you get things wide of the mark now, not only will you not get paid (or get remunerated less), your decisions could impact detrimentally upon your workers.
This is finally it; you have made the jump and you are running your own business. This is the moment when you need to truly focus on what you want for your business and your way of life. Try to keep the two at a distance as much as possible...this can be extremely complicated for most people in particular if you now work from home. Keep in mind nonetheless the main of working for yourself was to improve your life as a whole. Don't let the new business be "An Albatross around your neck"...it is there to get you the rewards you have always wanted.
However the large bank balance helps!
For your own personal respect; imagine the feeling you have compared to being in a mundane occupation or no occupation at all. It's a lot easy going to get out of bed at sunup knowing you are building a business for yourself and your immediate family; your not doing it for your boss - who you might not even be fond of.
People have varying reasons for fitting into the mold of an an capitalist - every one is different; and as such you will doubtless aim to do jobs in a more improved way than you have seen done by other bosses in earlier jobs you have had.
Not many people begin their own business - most people do not have that "daring do". The question is do you have it? Are you motivated to achieve something in business as well as in life?
