Leadership and Your Business

What is the real joy of starting your own business?  The idea of coming up with something new to offer the whole globe is a great feeling.  It might not be something that is revolutionary.  It could just be a service that you are bringing into the business world.

It could just be some of your thoughts.  There is a big business online in the form of writing.  Writing lasts a really long time.  Your ideas could turn into income online.  What about making blogs, taking photos or even building up a large list.  These are all things worthy of a business.

Being a business owner really breaks down to making decisions.  Calling the shots at the end of the game. Are you ready to be the type of player that is ready to make decisions.  It is like one of those professional basketball games with the clock running down.  There are plenty of players on the team, but there is a coach that calls the play and the player that takes the shot.

Some people are the equivalent of the basketball players that just sit on the bench.  They play the game, but they don't score that many points and they don't get much playing time.  These types of players don't call the play and they are not in charge.  Some people are okay without being in charge, while others might feel like they must be the leader.

Leadership is a quality that some people put on the shelf. Why does this happen?  Taking the lead and building a business should be a part of the plan for regular people.  Are leaders born?  Are they the result of watching other leaders and believing that they can do it too?  

What is holding you back from becoming a leader and a business owner?  Business is going down all the time.  Regular people participate in business deals everyday. They go to the store and they buy goods and services.  They are buying gas.  They are buying food.  If a person is already involved in business, why not take the next step?
