Starting your own business

Are you dying to quit your job so you can start that business you’ve always dreamed about and be your own boss?

You’re not alone.

According to a new SWNS Digital study, 40% of Americans do!

Why?

Following their passion topped the list, followed by being our own boss, supporting your family and wanting to solve a problem or improve the world.

The study also found 52% of people who want to start a business have already taken some steps toward making it happen but haven’t pulled the trigger yet because of the cost of starting or fear of failure.

Remember Abraham Lincoln failed at three careers before becoming President.

Enterpreneur has some tips to help you achieve your goal…you GOT this! 👍
