3. I used to work for an english company years ago and.......
one line my english boss used to say always stuck with me whenever I was hesitating. He would say "just get on with it." As dum as it sounds it has kept me moving forward.
I started my own company 5 years ago and finally it seems to be "beginning" to pay off. LOL, if I had a buck for everyone that said I was going to be rich, I would be rich by now. I'm not, as a matter of fact I'm still not making near what I used to make when I worked for a regular company (and that wasn't much) but my chances are much better than working for someone else.
The point of this rambling is that you just need to dive in. The worst case scenario is you fail. So what? Most people do the first few times in thier own business. Think of it as a learning process and always be flexible if an opportunity arises.
You never know where it will lead you. I wouldn't have guessed in a million years that I would be involved with the projects I am.
Good Luck and "Just get on with it".
