What are your best hopes from launching your business? If you woke up tomorrow, & your dream of running an online business was a reality, what change would you notice in your life? For me, I took the leap into starting my psychotherapy business when I found out I was going to be a father. I love what I do, but at the time I was hoping to have better work-life balance so I could spend more time with my family.

By reflecting on this question you can get more clarity on the changes you want to achieve. Knowing the answers to these questions helped me take the leap of faith to start my online business. That being said it wasn't an easy decision for me.

By defining your goal you can zero in on the specific actions needed to achieve those goals. There isn't a linear path forward. But knowing what you want to achieve will guide your actions. For some people its having more free time, money, or pursuing a passion. Regardless of your reasons I encourage you to know your "why". Knowing your "why" will help you push forward when things get tough.
