The someday business list

As an entrepreneur, it’s easy to get carried away with new ideas.

It happens on a daily basis and if we’re not careful, we end up spending more time thinking about new business ideas than what we do on the current projects that we have.

To overcome this, I keep a “Someday business idea” list. It’s just a list of business ideas that I have.

Anytime I have a new idea, it goes on this list and then I don’t allow myself to think about it anymore at the time.

If an idea keeps coming back to my mind that’s when I’ll look into it more and see whether the idea has any merit.

Otherwise, every month or so I’ll review the list and purge any ideas that I’m no longer liking or haven’t thought any more about.
