life plan before business plan

If you are a business owner one question that deserves almost constant consideration is, “Why did you go into business?” the answer to that question provides direction for nearly every decision in your business and protects you from getting sidetracked or distracted. A friend recently told me that their boss told them his goal was to take their company of 10 employees to 100 employees. My question was WHY? Was it growth for growths sake? Or was it going to help this owner fulfill his dream of having a company that would free up time and money for things that really mattered.
So why did you decide to become an owner (or independent contractor) in the first place? What did you hope was in it for you?
May your business and more importantly your very life flourish.
