I love your tips of taking time to figure out your own interests and long term strategy and doing an honest assessment of your strengths and weaknesses. These activities would give you a good idea of where you’re at and a direction that you hope to head in. It would also give you an idea of what to do to turn weaknesses into strengths and make the most of the strengths you do have.
Thank you so much for the simple tips to create a successful franchise. My wife and I are thinking about starting up our own business and so confronting a franchise lawyer would probably be the best choice in order to figure out how we can make it successful. I really like what you said about truly knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Thanks again for the information!
