i wonder if anyone feels the same way, like have so many ideas and plans but never manage to start anything. I think its always the starting point that hinders the future. I dunno, i have some ideas, some resources, i have a friends who can help me with advertising, I have time but never manage to start the plans. Im thinking of starting a business with as low cap as possible so not so risky, maybe a food chain, or selling art or fashion or setting up a maid service.. but just cant seem to focus and just start on one thing! keep getting side track. Now i wake up feeling motivated then later i will lose focus again and watch transformer movie or think of eating steam boat or lok lok or ..plant a tomato tree or something. always this same thing happen each day thats why not able to start anything.so frustrating ,,hmmmm.

Try to associate the pleasure of starting a business or after the business is successful. Try to imagine, if your business is successful, what will you be? Since you are feeling frustrated, so i guess it won't be too hard. Good luck!

First you have to decide exactly what biz you are thinking of starting. Go a step backwards, and ask yourself WHY? Why did you choose that business? Is it because you see a lot of people in that biz? Your friend wants to join you only if you do that biz? You like that biz? etc etc

When you have decided on that biz, write out your business plan. Assume that you are going to start that biz with zero money and you need all financing from the bank. This way, you will try to seek whatever avenues you can to make it profitable, and of course you have to focus.

Are you able to sell? Everything is sales based. Art, fashion, maid service what ever it is, it is eventually SALES. Where are you working now? Profit centre or expense centre? Make a move to profit centre to experience what is it to sell. Quite obviously you are not ready and I do not advise you to just go into any business as yet.

Skills, knowledge and experience are the metaphysics of business. Without those, you can still learn. Eventually the word is Persistence with a Plan. Remember that 9 out of 10 business go under within 6 months, so try to buck that ratio by Planning well. Find your USP and you will be in great business.

wahhhh, gee thanxxxx. yup yup it takes a lot of planning. I plan everyday , all my plans on thoery sounds very very good and practical and i can imagine myself making hundreds of thousands every month. but each morning when i wake up, i end up not doing any of the things i planned. i think for people without inborn discipline, really need to force ourself to do certain things.otherwise, keep doing things acording to mood only

if that is the case, then u should plan so details.. just get the rough idea in your head.. then just do the things ad hoc-ly.. all the details will come in to your way when u are actually doing it...

its a big problem, this attitude problem. i think its genetic. u r rite, if i dont change my character, my business plans all will never start moving. then also cant work for people, cos cant wake up at the same time everyday. very dificult to follow a routine. I wish a doctor can perform brainwashing so that i can be very rajin
