And I am like how are you coming with your book? Oh I am doing research. And they have been doing research for so long that they never get to the book. At some point you have to start. I think there’s a time and a season to do research and a plan and to analyse but you can’t get to this analysis by paralysis thing to move”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-7wC

So the dream is to give yourself the vision. What do I want? In the perfect scenario what will happen with my business? And then ask yourself these two questions. What do you ultimately want? So the more detail that you have the better because you want to clarify that. Say I will make 10,000,000 dollars or whatever. Okay that’s not necessarily compelling. A vision of I want to have an office building with four floors and the bottom is dedicated to the innovation lab… That level of detail and you start get to get into the story and kind of feel it”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-7wy

I think that’s the first step because again getting your personal philosophies and house in order before you embrace what you are going to do for the next five, seven, eight, maybe a lifetime when creating a business… It’s a big commitment. In the second thing I would recommend is to start exercising. Entrepreneurship is like a muscle in that sense where it’s fun to come up with business ideas, and then shoot them down, and come up with more business ideas and keep playing those exercises and sharing it with friends and mentor is that you trust. Those are all excellent because ultimately the first idea that you come up with is unlikely to be the idea that you eventually run with. Just by sheer chance and odds most likely that will have some fatal flaws but you will learn from the exercise of identifying those fatal flaws before you embrace on this long journey to go and pursue it…”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-7w8

Van Carlson has an extensive background in Risk Management with more than 24 years in the industry. Prior to founding Strategic Risk Alternatives, Van ran his own property and casualty firm for 15 years. With many commercial business owners as his clients, he saw the Great Recession of 2008 hit hard, and just like them, he was also affected by the sharp downturn in our economy. During this time, he realized there must be a better way to manage risk overall. From that desire to improve business operations for both himself and his clients, along with his extensive background in insurance, risk management, and finance, Strategic Risk Alternatives was formed. Since its start in 2008, several changes in US Government regulations have allowed the business to thrive - substantiating what Van already believed in: businesses needed a better solution to mitigate risk and create a war chest for the future. In 2013, increases in domiciles allowed the company’s success to skyrocket - with double digit growth year over year - and it’s only just begun. As CEO, Van is an innovator, developing SRA products for a variety of industries that can take advantage of adding additional revenues while mitigating risk at the same time. By delivering institutional-type ideas to small-and-mid sized business owners, SRA positions it’s clients at the forefront of their industry, offering robust marketing motivators and customer retention program. “you will be successful first and foremost.

And sometimes entrepreneurs will all get caught up in a lifestyle… As success comes revenues come up with it but you have got to be constantly adjusting that dollar what made you successful and what made you get there in the first place. And I think a lot of time business owners lose that or they don’t see it”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-7vZ

Think about what you like doing, how you entertain yourself as an 11-year-old child. What did you like playing?... And then go what does that tell me about my professional life so far or the businesses that I’ve owned so far?
