It’s a tragedy and a comedy of sorts. And it’s the story of a man who dares to dream a crazy dream AND actually go out to follow that dream.
Most people probably agree it’s good to dream.
But what if your dream was to be a hero? And I don’t mean a make-believe Avenger. I mean an actual hero who works to save the world from evil, power-hungry people who oppress the poor. What if your dream was to be that person? And what if you were already over 50 years old?
I bet you wouldn’t have to look far to find someone who’d say that dream was impossible. But it’s the dream Miguel de Cervantes instilled in his famous book about “Don Quixote.” Even if you don’t remember Señor Cervantes, maybe you’ve heard of the movie and play, “Man of La Mancha.”
That’s the suburb, in Spain, where “Don Quixote” lived. And he read lots of books about heroic deeds of chivalry and decided to be that kind of hero.
I won’t spoil the book’s ending for you. And I just wanted to use that story as a way of encouraging you to be honest with yourself. Because I always talk about the benefits of running your own business.
But that just might not be your thang.
So, if you can be honest with yourself and admit you won’t follow through in business, then it’s OK to stop trying to be a business owner. Not everyone is cut out for it.
And that’s OK.
Having a good job, and being well compensated for your skills, can be awesome.
It takes business owners AND employees to run a successful business. But it’s crucial to know which one you prefer and which one you’ll be. And then, be the best owner OR employee you can be. Either way you can be successful.
I know you’ve heard this before, but you don’t have to take the same path to success as someone else. Your path might be something simple and uncluttered. And running a big company or corporation certainly won’t let you live that way.
So, be honest with yourself…
Are you the sort of person who wants to work toward your own goals and ideas? Can you put in the extra time each day…day after day…to make sure you reach those goals? Or would you prefer to work a good eight hour day and go home to your family? Like I said, the choice is yours, and either one is an honorable way to go.
