Has the idea of creating your own business crossed your mind? Surely yes. However, it is very likely that your inner voice has been in charge of finding all kinds of excuses that do not allow you to create a business. (If you want to learn how to overcome your inner voice, click here)
Creating a company is not an easy task, however, the obstacles you will face are the same as those faced by those who have successfully created their businesses. These are the most common excuses your brain will create to stop you:
Excuses that do not let you create a company.
1. I don’t have money to start.
Millionaire people invest their money in new businesses all the time and they fail. Likewise, people without capital start companies and succeed too.
Steve Jobs was not a millionaire when he decided to create Apple Computers in 1976. In fact, he was adopted by a poor family and spent part of his youth sleeping on the floor of his friends’ rooms.
For his part, Michael Dell worked as a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant earning a pittance before founding Dell.
After all, being an entrepreneur is the art of achieving more with less; less money, less time, less staff, etc.
Not having money is not an impediment to undertake. If you need it, figure out how much and create a plan to get it, or read this to find out if you don’t need money to get started.
2. Irrigation is too high.
Risk to what? Maybe to failure? To lose the job and the stability that you think you have for an idea that may not work?
Any mistakes you make now you can correct and start over stronger next time. So start taking chances now. In fact, keeping your job and not risking creating your own business reduces your chances of generating true economic stability and fulfilling your dreams. If you never try it you will regret it for the rest of your life.
The only risk you run when starting a business is losing money, but what does it matter to lose a little if you will make millions when you perfect your business model. Ultimately you will lose 100% of the chances you don’t take.
3. I don’t have enough skills.
You probably don’t have the knowledge or experience, so what? None of the business leaders and owners of the largest companies had all the knowledge they needed when they started to create their businesses. They learned them along the way.
Go learn, take a course, read a book, attend conferences. You may have to spend many hours in a library looking for information, or you may have to take a temporary job at another company to learn.
Never hide under ignorance when you have thousands of options to get out of it. For example, these incredible courses for entrepreneurs.
4. I don’t have enough time.
This is one of the most common excuses that prevent you from creating a business. Absolutely all human beings have 24 hours each day. The only difference lies in how we make use of them.
Unfortunately time is an asset that we cannot buy, so you must use it wisely. For this you must make some sacrifices: leave the television, establish a schedule for Facebook and social networks. Also to check your mail.
If you really intend to be your own boss, improve your lifestyle and create your own company; you will find the necessary time to achieve it. Finding this time depends on how much you really want to succeed; so become a master to manage it.

5. I don’t have any good ideas.
Not believing that you have a good idea does not mean that you do not have any business idea. If you’re waiting for the perfect idea, don’t wait forever, it may never come.
On the contrary, you can use profitable business ideas that take place for other participants. The smartphone industry is just one example.
Stop making excuses once and for all and start creating your company. Your idea may not work on the first try but don’t give up; after a few failures success will come.
Robert Kiyosaki went bankrupt after starting a small business, to the point of losing his home. However, he now has a large investment in real estate and owns the company Cashflow Technologies, through which he manages the “Rich Dad” brand, with which he published his most representative work: Rich Dad. , Poor Father.
