6. Settling your long-term vision
Taking the leap of faith does not mean you just throw yourself into the business world blindly. You have to set your long-term vision and mission before you even start.
Plan your business bit by bit first. Set your goals and give yourself a time frame to achieve each of them. Then you will have a clear vision of what you are aiming for.
Knowledge and research play an important role on this. Gather useful information from others, including those who have started the business before you. Learn from their mistakes.
Making contingency plan is also important. You cannot expect that things will go smooth all the way forward. There will be many bumps and setbacks. Prepare yourself to get through those in order to achieve your long-term goal.
