You'd like to start your own business, you'd like to get out of the mind-numbing job, you'd like to leave the corporate rat race. But, starting your own business is a very daunting enterprise. Looking into the future, it looks like a long, dark tunnel with no light at the end.
Confucius said, "A journey of a thousand leagues begins with a single step." Taking that first step is the most difficult thing to do. It means beating the Law of Inertia.
Two Laws That Affect Your Success
The Law of Inertia states that a body at rest tends to remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Your life responds to the same laws and if you don't break the inertia, and take that first step, you'll be stuck right where you are. Without taking that first step you'll be forever stuck in that boring job, you'll never start a business.
The good news is that your life is also governed by the Law of Momentum -- it states that a body in motion tends to remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Once you take that first step and set your business enterprise into motion, you're well on the way to success.
Success Comes To Those Who Dare
Success never comes to those who wish and pray for it, it only comes to those who reach out and grab it. Successful people make a decision to do something, then they begin moving toward the goal they have set. They start down that long, dark tunnel knowing that the light of success lies at the end.
The British SAS has the motto, "Who dares wins." Successful people don't let fear of the unknown stop them, they don't cling to the false security of a job, they are willing to face the uncertainty and step into the tunnel.
Just Do It
This one act of successful people separates them from the failures. The ability to launch themselves into an enterprise without any guarantee of success is the one thing that leads to success. A 12-year university study concluded that virtually all success was based on the ability to "Just do it!"
The interesting thing is that as you move down the tunnel, opportunities appear to you along the way. These opportunities would never have been available to you if you had stayed at the mouth of the tunnel -- afraid to take that first step.
Taking That First Step
Successful business people choose their target, aim, and fire without hesitation. Determine what your goal is, make a plan for reaching that goal, then get moving toward that goal. Do something every day to take you closer to that goal.
The minute you start moving toward your goal, the Law of Momentum makes it much easier to continue making progress as you start a business, launch a new project, or set a campaign in motion. Just keep moving toward your goal and your success will follow.
Let Momentum Carry You To Success
Don't spend forever planning. Just take that first step into the tunnel. Get the momentum going. Before you know it, that momentum will carry you to success and you will have a business that allows you to say "Sayonara" to that enslaving nine to five job.
Just do it!
