Entrepreneurship on the mind

Over the last several weeks, I've begun thinking a lot about branching out into part-time and possibly full-time entrepreneurial pursuits. It's been nearly a decade since I graduated from college and my starting salary then is not a whole lot different from my salary now.

Ideas have been sparking in my head and I've become drawn to several books on entrepreneurship like 'Think & Grow Rich' by Napoleon Hill. Magazines on entrepreneurship, like Entrepreneur - which I currently subscribe to and Inc. which I plan to subscribe to. And Podcasts including my favorite - Internet Business Mastery - with Sterling and Jay.

Not only have I begun thinking about it I've been talking to equally interested friends about the same thing. I think it's only a matter of time before I move forward with a business plan my only flaw or obstacle I believe is my own anxiety and procrastination.

Hopefully in the next 3 months I'll have something up and running. Only time will tell. Maybe someday I'll be a millionaire - who knows...

I have been looking at entrepreneurship alot over the last few months as well. Is this something that you want to pursue full time or parttime?

I am looking into franchising as my pathway to wealth creation - particularly service businesses since the break-even is a fraction of the time of a traditional retail business.

It may be something you may want to read up on if you are a bit anxious in "going it alone".

Hope all is well!
