Although there are many possible reasons for going into business, the following are the three almost every owner considers to be the ones that got them started.
1.
No limitations - One of the prime reasons for starting a business is so you will no longer be limited by a preset salary or income level such as you are when working for someone else.
In fact, the only limitations you will face are either self-imposed or from your customers.
2.
Personal Potential - When you own your own business you are totally dependent on your own skills and resourcefulness.
Rather than being a bad thing, this allows you the opportunity to really live up to your potential.
If you have ever felt the need to prove yourself to the outside world, owning your own business gives you a perfect opportunity to do so.
3.
Freedom - Of all the reasons people start their own business, freedom is one of the most important.
These freedoms include freedom to make as much as you can, freedom to do what you want, freedom to choose how much or how little you work, and the freedom to choose who you will work with, among many others.
All of these freedoms are largely out of your control when you work for someone else.
Many people dream of opening their own business.
No matter the person and no matter the business, the reasons for doing so are remarkably similar.
In fact, almost all of these reasons can be distilled down into the same three; the lack of limitations, the ability to live up to your personal potential, and the freedom to really be in charge of your life.
