How to deal with fear of starting a new business (19/09/15)

I woke up this morning with fear and anxiety about how to start a new business. I thought about how to deal with that fear and I searched on Google. As I wanted to see how others deal with their fear, and I could a good article related to that.

The below content I extract contains some passages from a article "How to conquer the fears of starting a new business?"and my opinoins which is putting in brackets.

It says, Before staring a business, it's totally normal to feel the fear of the unknown. (What a relieved!) The authour shared some tips that to conquer fears of staring a new business.

1. Start with the reasons why you feel the fears of starting a new business. 

As a first, need to start with the simple question: Why you fear to start a business?

For me, I fear of my lackness, I suspicious that Do I have ability to do that? Even I have done that before? Of course i have not any experiance of it as it's my first business. So I think as a idiot.

(It says, This fear is a good thing. the fear I fee will prepare for the success if I do my homework in the right way. So the fear is like a milestone that indicates what I need to do.)

2. Do you homework, prepare yourself.

(If you know about something, you won't feel fear anymore.
you feel fear becase you don't know enough, that means it's time to research the area of your business.)

Doing something, or better said, taking some first steps as your homework will give you enough encouragement that you need to make the second statge. As you move forward step by step, the fear you feel at the beginning of the process will start diasppearing.

You need to validate your idea befor you start doing anything else.
Simply talk with some potential or target customers about your ideas. Connect the dots between their real problem and what your product or service will solve for them. if they think that your solution is not revolutionary, then you will need to improve your idea.

This is how you should handle your feelings when you wnat to start your own business. Prepare yourself, do your homework.

3. Think about the benefits that you will earn.

Even there are many uncertain things about something new, starting a new business will also give you many benefits like;

the earining potential can be higher;
I will select people with whom I want to work;
I will do something that I love to do if I base my business on my real passion;

But Human beings are more scared of what they could miss out if they do not take specific steps. So, answer following question: What will be missed opportunities that you might have if you don't take those first staeps to start a business?

(Umm. might be I will miss out opportunities that expressing my vision, speaking up my voice, making a good money and having inspired people all over the world with my idea.)

4. Everyone fails, failure is a learinng possibility

Understand that everyone fails. The only people who don't fail are those who never take something, or do something.

Many successful business owners have already failed, not once, but many times before they reach the first success. When they fail, they learn something new. They experience new things. With new knowledge and experiance, they can simply improve their next steps.

5. Complemets your weakness with other persons.

It doesn't mean that you will need to start alone on your entrepreneurial journey. If you want to overcome the fear of not enough experiance, you can find someone experienced to become your partner on your journey.

You will need a business partner that specializes in things that you don't know. This is a good strategy if the fear pervents you from moving forward to become an entrepreneur.

6. Take small steps to your success.

Don't allow to stuck in not taking these first steps because you're afraid that you won't do enough. Simply, start small and take an incremental step. Do your work step by step. You will remove the pressure the pressure from your head, and start accomplishng one little thing everyday. Day after day.

To implement this process, you can start with the following steps:

• Select one important thing you need to do in the next period of a week or two.
• Break down the selected thing you want to do  in the smallest possible steps you can take on a daily basis.
• Schedule these seps to be implemented in the next one week or two.
• After a week or two, measure your achievement and repeat the whole process.

Stop deaming, and start doing. I believe you will succeed.
