Picking a Business

The biggest obstacle about starting your company is that “you don’t know what you don’t know.” The best way to pick a business to start is by really understanding and knowing your gifts and talents.

How do you know what you’re good at? That should actually be pretty easy because in most cases it’s something you love to do. For myself, I love doing deals, meeting people, learning about businesses and helping people. After you ask around and take the time to self-reflect on your strengths and what you enjoy doing, try brainstorming what kinds of businesses do well with those talents.

So to recap, the best way to pick a business is to focus on your talents, write the list down and see what opportunities/businesses come up that use or need those talents.  Good luck!
