Step No#1: Do NOT quit your job unless you can afford it!
#10 STEPS to climb in order to transition yourself from a EMPLOYEE to an ENTREPRENEUR

Most of us are in the rat race suffering from the acute routine syndrome and cling to the idea that quitting their job would act as the change they so desperately need in order to change their life.
And the truth is quitting your job without a thorough VALIDATED income plan is probably the DUMBEST thing you can do if you can’t afford it!
Let me explain:
First don’t confuse your passion/s with a valid business plan and/or a highly paid income skill, because this is the most common mistake you can do. Just because you like doing it doesn’t mean YOU gained the much needed skills and experience to actually generate recurring income at the level you would expect or even so much need even if you fully dedicate your time&effort to your idea.
The SOLUTION is to find a minimum risk way to transition and validate your idea like creating a part-time side-gig on sites that already have lots of demand and traffic like:
where you can start, test and iterate the whole process from branding, marketing and actually making sales and check for yourself if you actually have market demand for your service based idea and also check for the possibility of going to scale with it.
Note: You will be paying a fee on these platforms but the advantages of using them outweigh heavily on the disadvantages:
— you will be paying a small % only after you yourself will be paid
— these platforms function as VALIDATED search engines of customers and projects
— you MUST consider the platform’s fee as a MARKETING cost and start training your MINDSET to always think about the marketing of your business in terms of strategy and costs!
PS.The long term objective is to double your income in a year but let’s face it, just to keep it real to actually double your income YOU would need to double your skills and value you add to the marketplace, most of the times that would mean double your efforts and double the time you would need to work, with the perspective to keep in mind that you will eventually need to find the right vehicle(technology/system/process/team) to help you scale the quantity but keep the quality of your work!
