Well it has taken me a year to realize the meaning of the phrase
"Lack of planning is the number one reason businesses fail."
I have been hurting for money from the beginning. I realized the "planning" part meant planning on not having money and what you're going to do in the meantime.
If I had known this before, I would have started small. I would have kept a part-time job somewhere else and worked a few days a week as a Massage Therapist until I was slamming on those couple of days. I would include another day or two until eventually, I would quit the other job and go full-time as a Therapist if I flourished enough.
I didn't realize how much I did NOT plan.
So now I'm in a hole and I need to get out. I am looking for another job to do part-time and will go part-time in the office I'm in now.
Don't do what I did. If you are starting your own business, plan on not having money. Start small and build from there, like growing a tree.
