WHAT ARE YOU DOING?? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?? DAHM IT WHAT ARE YOU DOING???

This was an ear twitching statement from billionaire Tony Stark in the Iron man 2 movie. Although he did not shout it aloud like many who haven’t watched the movie are wondering, Surprisingly he whispered it to himself while staring at the mirror, taking a look at him himself and trying to discover something that he knew he was missing.

 I once heard a fresh graduate say this words:
"I have never been more scared about anything in my life up to this point, because this point onwards signifies whether I am going to be my parents b**** for some time or I am going to be my own man.", and this statement got me thinking.

Analytical analysis:

Like the curious guys of folk, I can be the most curious guy you could ever meet, because I have this tendency for trying to know how things work, and that’s the reason why when people were trying to discover what time the latest episode of super story will be aired, I discovered the power of Google. I am not a sucker for information though, I only want to know what I want to know, and that is a bad philosophy on my part, please forgive me. (Reason: I just don’t want to get bored with knowing boring stuffs.)

Look at captain Kirk, the big boss in the star trek franchise, man that guy had purpose, he was even told by a man from the future that he was destined to do great things, but this life in which I dropped into, there was no instruction, no compass, nobody telling me Son you are going to be president, they just want us to get a decent education and maybe if we are lucky, find a good job and probably sit behind a desk.

To grab the concept of turning your hobby into a job opportunity is not that hard, but what is hard is the concept itself. It sounds vague and crazy, your old man would probably hit you on the head with a wrench and your mother with a spatula and that isn’t the half of it, but IT IS WHAT EVERY ABLE BODIED YOUTH SHOULD BE DOING. You are earning money, and it’s just like you are playing. “Oh Please!”

Now true fact: 

I want to start a business, but where the hell am I supposed to start from dam it?, Should I work on it beside my day job, so if my experimental business Idea fails, I can go back to my own job?, should I work for the government for like 5 years then quit my job to startup my dream firm? Questions! Questions! And no solution seems to be popping up.

Now I don’t have certification to be giving people entrepreneurial answers because I only have a BSc to my name. But from all that the street has taught me, standing in front of a crowd to talk or balancing an egg on a spoon, the same part of the brain and neural path handles this two events, in both cases, your pulse races, your heart feels like it wants to jump out of its chest, you may even begin to start getting all sort of sweaty, but when you try opening your mouth, nothing seems to come out. This comes to my concept of always taking a breather. When you feel overwhelmed by taking a decision, about whether to start a company or not, breathe in, and breathe out. (1^st step)

The second step is to admit to yourself that you are scared, it that way, it takes away any additional tension. I read somewhere that if you are nervous about talking to a crowd just say:  “I don’t know what to say”

The third step is to take another breather and give the speech of your life or start up the desired venture, because it is not how good the speech is, it is how to make people understand the message and the reason for your speech. It is also not how great you are at your hobby, it is how you can use it to touch the lives of people around you.

And please use a business plan and a business model.
