Mulling over an idea isn’t inherently bad. But letting an idea or a plan sit alone for too long may make you resent it, and vise versa. So if you’ve got something that you think will work, or will make you happy to try (even if it fails) but you feel underqualified…here’s what you can try,
1. write the idea down. Get specific about where it would be and how big and how much (based on averages in that market)
2. Look online for associations or groups that exist solely for the purpose of helping people like you with this plan
3. When you find that association or organization (and you will) ask them to send you any manuals, laws, rules, assistance they can.
4. Don’t wimp out on #3. Because if there is one thing people love to do, its talk all day about the thing they do/love/promote.
5. Carve out time from your day job and your other obligations to go through what was sent to you. And figure out how much applies to you specifically and your plan
6. Add this to your written down notes and idea.
7. To anyone who has ever been scared by a dream or a hope or an idea, you know that the 6 steps above are not easy to do and they don’t come all at once. So take a second and be proud of actually thinking you can do something new, and of the learning you did.
The next list of hurtles will involve more research, learning how to wrie your plan, writing it, and creating a budget.
