Time To Get Started

by Rich Lazzara on January 1, 2010

There are two things to do with your ideas in the next 365 days; Accomplish or Procrastinate.

I could give you a rant about having resolutions or setting goals, but instead I’m blowing past that stage right to the heart of the matter.  There is something you want to do. There is something you  want to accomplish.  There is something you want to start.

Here’s the hard part. You are the only one in the way of accomplishing those goals.

The Decade Of Doing

The next decade is about the individual, the entrepreneur, doing anything and everything.  The barriers to entry in any industry are gone. The need for large amounts of capital just to get started are a thing of the past.  All you need is an idea.  Whether its starting a digital company, selling a physical product or servicing something, over the next decade you will see more companies started than any other decade in history.

What happens when another 1 billion people from the BRIC nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China) access the Internet in the next 5 years?  What happens when there are more mobile devices on the planet than people?   What are the endless opportunities that will present themselves?  How can you take advantage of them?

Don’t get caught into thinking that the next decade will just be more or less the same.  Take these next 365 days and start accomplishing something you’ve always meant to.

Do you have new ideas for the next decade? Are you going to accomplish them?

  • Rich,

    One of the things I realized just by pulling the trigger was the idea of selling all the skills I've developed from blogging, social media, and my MBA. So, did something really simple.I wrote a for hire ad for craigslist which I publish once a week and so far everytime I do it, I get potential clients emailing me about my services. So, I think it's going to be an interesting year to say the least.
  • Srini, that is a brilliant idea. post a link to it here so all can see. very good idea to market yourself.
