Keep looking up

As I worked to get our report selling website off the ground, get SMEs to write and upload reports and persuade other entrepreneurs to buy these reports, I had in my mind an analogy.

I felt that I was trying to get up onto a mountain by climbing up through a gully. However the gully didn’t seem to be going up, just into the foot of the mountain, but always I hoped that it would at last begin to climb.

However it never did. And now I have to find another gully, hopefully better than the first.

Curiously I know something about the paths and ways that I can use on the mountain, and I plan to use this knowledge to do good things to help people who are not as lucky as us.

I have no interest in buying yachts or fast cars. I can only live in one house at a time. I hate hotels, prefer B&Bs and have very simple taste in food and don’t even drink alcohol.

So it’s not about the money, rather it’s about trying to do some good.

So one thought is if this is what I would like to go in the longer term, then perhaps if I come up with a new business, then it should be focused on this idea.
