8 Signs You’re Ready to Start Your Own Business
--
The idea of beginning your journey as an entrepreneur is enough to make most people feel a little bit excited and a tiny bit uneasy — which is completely normal!
Yet sometimes, starting a business is the most obvious and intuitive next step you can take when your side hustle has grown and it’s getting hard to juggle with your job.
While no one can tell you for sure what the right answer is — and no one should decide but YOU — people often overlook just how much they have to give this world and therefore struggle to determine if it’s worth going further.
Since we all need a small push in the right direction sometimes, here are some signs that show you’re ready to start a business… hopefully, this helps you make the right decision for you and your work.
1. Your old job just doesn’t cut it anymore.
And I’m not even talking money here.
While every job comes with its own challenges, you should feel good about the work you’re doing — at least more often than not.
If every Sunday afternoon you’re dreading the idea of spending yet another week at the office and would rather keep immersing yourself in your side hustle, then take that as a pretty big sign you’re ready to start a new chapter in your life.
2. You crave doing work that makes an impact.
Everyone’s here for a reason — and right now, the work you do doesn’t make you feel like you’re making much of a difference, does it?
You know work is work but you feel like there has to be something more to life than just showing up at 9am and forgetting it all at 5pm. And you’re right, there definitely is.
If you’re constantly catching yourself daydreaming about helping others with your work, making meaningful connections, and just growing as a person rather than focusing on your work, consider that another sign that it might be time to make a change
