Afterthought 3.
"This job will be yours one day, if you stay", these were the desperate words of the CEO of my last employer. I was only 26 and I had just told him I was leaving to go and set up my own business. He thought I had gone completely out of my mind. In those days graduates didn't leave good paying jobs to go into business!
He tried everything to try and persuade me to stay. I offered to serve 6 months notice.
It was easily one of the toughest decisions I ever made: The uncertainty, the fear of failure; All these things and more flooded me every day. I was also the principle bread winner in my family.
You might be 26, or 56, or 76; if you have this desire to start a business, or to join a new business (that gives you the chance to be entrepreneurial) ---end the procrastination---do it!
