How To Start A Small Business In 2023
I’m a huge hustler and have been creating side hustles and small businesses for decades. I have had blogs (hello!)… tech startups and even an internationally successful children’s clothing line that I fully designed and manufactured all by myself!
Starting a small business… or even a side hustle for a start is not hard! And, its one of the most powerful things you can do to:
1. Boost your happiness in life … and
2. Bring in extra income for your family
I’m a massive believer in setting yourself up to make passive income… so this ones relevant here too. Your business can either be an active earner … or a passive one… I talk more about passive income in this article here.
But in general… you can either work daily in your biz… via providing services or goods.. or set yourself up with a passive income business or venture to set and forget.
Everyone needs to make an income to live day to day. And, sometimes creating that small business falls by the wayside, and you’re tired, overworked, or simply do not have the brain space to get started.
But, Im here to tell you something. Today is the day that you CAN start that small business. And live your dreams. However big… or small. You are worth it! and each day you make a start and move one step towards those goals… you’re making your own reality for your future. This is MASSIVE!
WHY START A SMALL BUSINESS?
Ok- I’m gonna get personal here. Starting a small business comes in many forms.
You might have had an idea for that special thing for years or its come to you in the shower! And it’s nagging at you that it’s something that you must do.
Or, you have a a skillset that you want to share.. or a hobby or interest that is kinda getting out of control (in that spare room or kitchen bench!) and you see potential to monetise your thing. Or at the very least share it with the world.
Lastly, if could be that you want to escape the rat race, quit the 9-5. You want to be the master of your own ship, and your own boss. You want to create your own thing and own your time. You want to live life on your terms. And that’s super powerful.
Feeling a sense of purpose and a sense of independence and mastery over your own destiny creates feelings of happiness. And while starting a business is NOT the easy route. It is a special one. It’s a journey that I thoroughly recommend and a journey that I’m here to help guide you through!
