subject: Are You Scared Of Starting Your Own Online Business? [print this page] A lot of people have fears and doubts when it comes to starting an online business. The reasons could be because they do not have enough belief in their selves, they are afraid to take financial risks, or they do not want the big responsibility that they will be carrying once the business is running especially if it will become quite a successful one in the long run.
It is quite understandable why not a lot of individuals are having their own businesses even if they do not like their nine to five jobs. Having a boss is something to deal with but having yourself as your boss is worse, for some at least, especially those who are used to being told what to do all the time. I myself had troubles a few months after I started my online business.
I would say that procrastination is one of an entrepreneurs biggest problems since this could obviously hamper the growth of the business. Remember that if you are the one giving yourself orders on what to do, procrastination could be the skys the limit. Ask yourself if youre afraid of yourself. The answer is most probably yes. If your answer is no, you are probably kidding yourself.
To help you decide whether you want to start a business or not, here are some pros and cons in having a business of your own; specifically, an online or home business.
Pros:
1. No pressure on bulk of work or work schedule, or both.
2. You can control your income. (which means more ideas and more work is equal to a bigger income)
3. Since you are your own boss, you will never be in a situation where you have to choose between work and family.
4. Your ideas, your credit.
Watching your success as an entrepreneur is much more fun than being a career person.
Cons:
1. Pressure sets in if business is booming. (bigger decisions to make, bigger money to handle, more people to deal with, more problems to face, and less time for yourself; you always have the upper hand though to avoid these problems)
2. At the start, everything seems to be hard and success seems to be sluggish especially if you are entirely new to being a business person.
3. More motivation is always needed even if what you do is a deep seated passion of yours.
You are your own boss, which means that there is no one to be scared of, which means that you can do whatever you like may it be productive or otherwise.
They say that in every human, there is an urge to be rich. Some have reasons as simple as not to worry about the next bill while some have bigger reasons.
