The need to refocus

I’ve been thinking a lot about the my in-progress business recently and I’ve come to one conclusion: I’m too unfocussed.

In order to try and cover myself when I quit the day-job, and guarantee a certain level of revenue, I came up with a number of alternative services I could offer to local businesses.

I now realise that I was heading into the dangerous situation of promising too much with too few “me’s”! A significant level of infrastructure would have also been needed to provide these services at appropriate levels.

It’s time to refocus on my original ideas: starting a small software company with a few products/services based around a single core concept.

Consulting/contracting will form part of the early stages of the company for income-boosting purposes, with the current day-job now seen from the perspective of being my first “contract”.

That sounds much better, scary, but better.

Stick to the basics!
