If you're going to spend all of your days working on building a successful business it might as well be something you have a passion for.
What Are My Expectations?

Or do you hope to build something that you can turn over to a manager in a few years to give you more flexible time for the other things that are important in your life? Or maybe you just want to get rid of that nasty morning and afternoon commute and working at home is way to do that. Think carefully about what you expect from your new venture in the future and really look to see if those expectations are reasonable
How Much Money Will This Venture Cost?

Take the time to really consider how much you'll need in start-up money to succeed and whether or not you can really commit the kind of time and energy necessary to make your new business the success you crave.
Am I Really Ready To Give Up The Security of a Real Job?
Starting a new business from scratch can be a scary endeavor. There are a lot of unknowns including whether or not you can find customers, pay your bills and keep your health insurance. Make sure that your family has the ability both financially and emotionally to handle the ups and downs of running a new business. If not, see what you need to change to prepare yourselves for these changes before you ditch the security of your day job.
