The Eight Most Common Excuses For Not Starting A Business

Anything that holds you back from starting a business is an excuse. The doubts that play back and forth in your mind can easily erase your dreams of becoming financially free.
Take a look at the eight most common excuses people use to justify not starting a business.

1. I’ve not got enough time:
Do you watch TV after work? Why not make one of those major sacrifices and ban yourself from watching TV. You’ll get the extra time you need to start a part time business or money scheme.

2. I’m not smart enough:
You don’t need to be the most intelligent to make money, all you need is the ability to absorb basic information as you go along. Learn by doing and the answers will come as you keep striving. Plus there are many free events and seminars out there to help you.

3. I am waiting for the perfect idea:
If you are waiting for the perfect idea there’s a high possibility that it will never arrive. Instead of waiting for the perfect idea, why don’t you emulate a working business structure and make it better than the competition? Almost all the successful entrepreneurs from Branson to Bannatyne have never had an original business idea.

4. God doesn’t want me to be rich:
Well, I can bet God wouldn’t want you to be poor!
5. Rich people are mean in business:
Ask yourself this question: Would you rather be a little bit tough and get the luxuries you rightly deserve in this world, or would you prefer to beat yourself up for not having the courage to chase your financial dreams? The choice is yours.

6. I don’t need a lot of money:
You might not need a lot of money, but I bet you also don’t need a lot of stress from the bills that continue to mount up. Instead of making a fortune for yourself, why not do it for your family and the underprivileged? One of the most well known formulas for happiness is the ability to have a positive affect on people’s lives.

7. I have to wait until my foundations are right:
If there’s one thing you take from this article it’s this: The time is never ever going to be right. There will always be minor or major obstacles whether it’s not having a significant amount of capital, or some personal problems. So listen to Napoleon Hill’s wise words “Don't wait. The time will never be just right.”

8. I have children:
Having kids might be hard but you can still reach your goals. If Chris Garner can do it, so can you.
