What must determine when I set up a private practice? What are the character traits of sustainable business?
I believe when the root of a business has the right foundation, the chances it will weather all the storms are very high.
I believe many businesses had it wrong from the mental foundation before any business name is coined.
When one decides to set up a business prompted by pressure from superiors or management for any inappropriate behaviours like AWOL, lack of depth, mismanagement of resources, lateness, insubordination, impatience, intolerance, poor communication and such like that such business may not survive for the lack of business culture.
For any business to survive, the industry players must put themselves UNDER the rule of healthy business cultural practices and keep abreast of such related International best practices.
When going private practice is prompted by the desire to do things with no respect for business culture, it is not different from trying to burn fat and look fit but one is not cutting down on heavy calories.
The reality is that businesses are thoughts, wholesome thoughts like season film scripts looking for animators. Everyone catching in must be ready to go the entire scripts to experience the entire vision, otherwise, a business shipwreck is inevitable.
It is actually the business owning you and not the other way round. It is just providence that made you the face of the business. Knowing this truth prior to considering a business venture is very critical. It will make you very accountable where you are currently.
To say I own my business is hypothetically correct. It is more correct to say I preside over a business conceptualized.
If the desire to set up a business is centred on acquiring wealth, becoming rich the long haul of waiting to see the wealth will be intolerable and most people will jump from one business to another and waste lots of resources.
Remember, businesses are pages of scripts that must be animated and two similar businesses are not similar in their scripts and as one is climbing against the tide, the other may be descending and aided by the tides. Everyone must pay attention to their peculiar rhythm. It is like asking scriptwriters to write for the same title; one will get as many perspectives as the different writers or ask different engineers to design a particular solution, a thousand of them will draw from a thousand perspectives and they could all be flawless.
When one fully understand that presiding over a business idea does not free one from more work but demands from such more responsibility, such will think deeper before venturing.
Self Employment, even from what it suggests, that is being self-employed is a more laborious self engagement.
The moment one is doing things off the script, you are deviating from the peculiar brand philosophy and off the set destination.
Everything is in the particular business script; from the business name to the various business services, values and principles to weather relative and evolving challenges and also succession plan are all in the scripts.
The more we are ready to be under the rule of the scripts, the more the scripts will unfold. Hiworks
