Kevin had worked as a barber at The Clipper Joint for the past five years. He has dreams of opening his own barbershop one day. He is beginning to feel that it isn't really fair to have to pay Joe Authentic Mike Scott Jersey , the owner, 60% of his cut. It just doesn't seem right to him. He is the one with the clients. He is the one cutting heads for 7 hours a day. Why should he have to give up anything?


Well, the answer is simple. He isn't the owner of the shop. If there weren't any shop, there wouldn't be any place for his clients to go. And if there weren't any place for his clients to go then he wouldn't be getting any money to cut heads.


Lately, Kevin has been having serious thoughts about opening his own barbershop. But Authentic Jose Cruz Jersey , he isn't quite sure exactly how to go about it. What he decides to do was ask Joe, the owner of The Clipper Joint, a few questions about how he started his shop. Maybe that would teach Kevin a little about how to begin.


Today, the thought of opening his own shop has been weighing really heavy on his heart. On his way home from work, Kevin stopped at Barnes and Noble because he wanted to start a little research on finding out how to start a business.


He was amazed at all the books that were available on this subject. He picked up two of the books and decided that he would start by reading these. They seemed to be full of information Authentic Jimmy Wynn Jersey , even told you what publications and forms you would need from the IRS to start your business.


Kevin knew nothing of starting a business. It seemed really scary to him. Just the thought of it made him nervous. What if he started his own business and he failed? What if he lost all of his money trying to open the business? What if he couldn't handle it?


Kevin decided he was NOT going to fail. He was going to get as educated as he possibly could about starting and running a business. He was going to read everything that he could get his hands on. He was going to talk with shop owners and get the low down from them. He would even take a few classes at the community college. He was going to research, research, and research.


It has been two year since Kevin stopped at that Barnes and Nobles to start his research. Kevin is still working for Joe at The Clipper Joint.


Oh, don't think Kevin is giving up. Oh no, every day Kevin is reading another book on how to start a business. Next week he is attending a seminar on starting your own business. He has talked to tons of barbershop owners all over the state in which he lives. He has told everybody he knows that he is going to open his own barbershop. ?Hey Authentic Andy Pettitte Jersey , Kevin did you open that barbershop yet?? ?Not yet. Still working on it!?


Do you see what Kevin is doing? Kevin is forever going to start a business. Kevin is NEVER going to start a business.


Kevin is stuck in what I call ?The Research Sector.? He isn't making any real progress in starting his business because, in fact, he isn't DOING anything to start it. Oh, don't get it twisted, Kevin is now fully educated on what it takes to start and run a barbershop. If he wanted to Authentic Gerrit Cole Jersey , he could hold a seminar and teach others how to start and run their own business.


Kevin needs to get really honest with himself and realize that he is afraid to make a move and that he is using research as a crutch to hold him back. But instead of admitting the fear, Kevin stays where it is safe. It only makes sense that you will thoroughly research something as big as starting your own business, before you make a move. So as long as he is in ?The Research Sector?, he will forever be ?opening his own business.?


Some people stay in ?The Research Sector? forever. They NEVER make any real progress because they are forever researching?or forever practicing or whatever.


It's really a mechanism we use to avoid putting ourselves out there. We are really fearful of what could happen if we were to really DO something. So to make it seem as if we are doing something, we spend all of our time in the beginning stages Authentic Jose Altuve Jersey , the learning process.


In order to achieve your dreams and desires you must TAKE ACTION.


Action is defined in the Merrian-Webster Online dictionary as a thing done.


Nothing happens until you TAKE ACTION.


You MUST DO SOMETHING in order for things to happen.


I know that it may ?feel? a bit scary at first. I know that venturing out into the unknown can really cause a lot of crazy thoughts that will have you second-guessing yourself.


But unless you muster up the courage and the confidence, you will never realize your dreams, your goals, and your purpose.


Here's my suggestion: why not find something to do that you aren't fearful of doing?


Let's say that starting your own business requires you to write out your Mission Statement. Hey, that's something you can do. You know what you want to do so you can easily write it down. Wa-la! You actually took action.


Or Authentic Michael Brantley Jersey , let's say, you want to be a writer. Spend your day looking up the name, address, phone number and email address of the person who receives article submissions for the magazines and newspapers that your article will fit in. If it makes you nervous to call and talk with them on the phone, send an email.


Let me give you an example.


Suppose Kevin started his research and discovered that the first thing he will have to do is to create a business plan. But Authentic Alex Bregman Jersey , being that he is new to this, he doesn't know what a business plan is so he Wholesale Nike Air Max Shoes Wholesale Air Max China
