I agree that running a business, small or big, is a skill combined with art. And having a great business idea is a gift from God, but implementing it to a success is your gift to God. Doesn’t matter if it is small or big, as long as your applying the right virtue and philosophy, you’re on the go for a sure success.

One thing I like of owning a business, is I can choose the lifestyle i want, and I can pass this down to my siblings.

Thanks for sharing this thought, this really a great post and I like it.

My former boss talked about analysis paralysis when making decisions. IE you can think and think about something, but if you don’t act its useless. Thats how I approach my small business

“Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.”

I love it when people use Sun Tzu in business speak. Regardless, I think the point is to always be moving. I would go so far as to distill Sun Tzu’s quote into this: thinking and doing. One or the other alone is just about as usual as neither.

until today, I still experiment with the proper balance. I have been doing it for a long time, I feel closer to that balance with each test, or business i do.

My goal is always to be able to get passive income without me doing too much. That’s also a reason, i think, why it takes me longer sometimes to find that balance.

I think that a lot of small business owners are bogged down with the mundane chores of business (orders & staff hassles) and are unable to really focus on tactics and strategies to properly market their business.

Hello Dawud.
Nice one as usual. As I always say, Creative of any sort without strategy is only art.
Take good care and have a wonderful year.
Those that sit on their hands waiting for good times will be last as usual.
Cheers
