I started my own business as I wanted to try new ideas and systems. I had'nt planned to do this but I had an opportunity and decided a spontaneous decision was the best. I learnt more in 8 months running a business than in my previous years combined. I taught me alot in terms of cash flow, budgeting your finances, advertising, people in general and much more........It was a fantastic experience. However as I had not planned this, I had no collaterol or background finances in places to fully expand a successful business module so I decided to accept a position which provided a steady guaranteed income and consider going back to my own company at a more suitable time.
