The illustration in the book “The Secret” of the way you handle a journey sticks in my mind. If you are embarking on a road trip to New York City, commencing in Los Angeles, you don’t need to know the detail of the journey. Just start driving, the “way” to get from A to B will unfold as you go. The visual image I had in my mind was of a car, travelling at night, its headlights lighting up the first 100m. Then once you pass that landmark, the next 100m is lit up, and so on and so on until you reach your destination.
It is the same with a new venture or startup business. You may have an idea. But you may not know exactly how to get to the final destination of where you want to go with the idea. Just start. The “way” will unfold as you go. This has worked for me in several businesses. Too many people sit around, waiting for everything to be “perfect” before they start. Very often they never actually get the business going, because life although it can get very close to perfect, will never BE perfect this side of eternity!
