How many people want to start their own business? Many do.
How many actually open their own business? Some do.
How many succeed in small business. Few do.
After many years of creating business plans, buying business cards, “talking” about starting a business I’m finally going to open a brick and mortar business. It’s not just any building, it’s the same building that my father ran a local barber shop for 40 years. It’s like a dream come true. Walking in the building after all these years was magical for me.
As I sit here over the holiday’s I can still hear my father telling me: “If you know what you want, it’s already there.” I know that building is it; I know that local artisan concept is it; I know that giving back to the local community is it. It’s almost like there is a pent-up need and the timing is right. Time will tell. No matter. It will be a place that I want to go, a place I want to create and shop and be. I’ll more than likely be documenting my journey on this blog as I transition to a business owner.
