A good business is fueled by passion for your product and/or service. My problem is that I haven't yet discovered what my passion is. I only know things that I'm interested in, but I don't know if that necessarily translates into a passion. Here's how I want my future business venture to be for me: I want to love my work so much that it feels like play, and that I'd do it even if I wasn't being compensated.
All I know is this. I'm passionate about people and their wellbeing. I want to try to help people to be the best that they can, or at least provide opportunities to them that may not be so obvious. The question is how do I go about this dream? What best expresses my talent and capabilities, so that I can best help someone else? So here were some things that I thought about:
1. Running a HR recruiting firm, so that I could match talent to the appropriate agency.
2. Or along those same lines, create something similar to a career center for the local Philadelphians. (There are so many resources for the college students, but what about those who aren't in academia?)
3. Some type of consulting agency... One that provides more than business advice, maybe motivational speakers... I don't know I'm still thinking.
Something else I've also considered is that I'm not really creative, so if someone else had an idea that I really loved, I'd ask to partner with them. So If I could partner with a creative person, and perform the business operations for them, that would also be ideal. I already started taking steps to do that by joining the ESA, Temple University's Residential Life and really going into different groups. I figure if I expand my horizons, then I invite new people and ideas into my life. And who knows where the next breakthrough could lie?
