Questions to help identify the "Why":
- Why do I want to break free? (Is it because you hate your boss, job, Mondays?)
- How do I feel about my current job, home, car, relationships, etc? (Is this the life you pictured for yourself?)
- Do I want more than that?
- If so, what do I want to achieve in the next 6 months, year, 3 years, etc?
- Will doing what I am currently doing allow me to achieve these things?
- Am I prepared to 'do what it takes' to make a business succeed?
- Am I willing to invest in my business? (Every legitimate business, no matter how small requires some form of investment, both time and money.
) - If I need to learn new skills, ideas, etc to succeed - am I willing to do it?
