The idea of calling all the shots has prompted millions of people to go out on their own, determined to make a living in a more meaningful, profitable, and satisfying way while also allowing them to pursue a more balanced and enjoyable life. You may be limiting yourself with beliefs and fears that prevent you from moving forward.
Fear is a common stopping point for many people.
It's tricky, since some types of fear are good for you. If the fear is rational, it serves as a warning about real risks you may be taking. Business is inherently risky, after all. But don't let fear lead to limiting beliefs that hold you from your best shot at achieving your dream. Use fear wisely by acknowledging it, thinking it through objectively, and getting to its real source.
