Too many people are seeking permission rather than giving themselves permission.
I see it all too often when someone has an idea for a new or existing business. They go around asking people as if they are seeking permission in order to pursue the idea.
If you can’t give yourself permission first, you aren’t confident enough in your idea.
A lack of confidence from the start is never a good thing in business.
Give yourself permission, get confident in your idea, and know how you’re going to execute. Then get feedback from others if you feel you need it.
