10 Reasons Why You Should Start Your Own Business


Starting your own business is incredibly brave. Over the years, many people we've talked to share that they've always wanted to start their own business, but they're afraid to take the next step and make it happen.


With this in mind, we wanted to share 10 reasons why you should start your own business to motivate anyone reading this who has been on the fence and needs that last push to get started.


  1. No Regrets - Life is too short to spend it doing something you're not passionate about. None of us know how much time we have, so why not build a business that supports the life you want now?

  2. Financial Independence - Unlike being an employee with a pay cap, there is no cap when it comes to your business. The more time, energy and resources you pour into your business, the more your asset grows!

  3. Set Your Schedule - There's no set rule for when your business hours need to be. Create a schedule that supports the life you want. If you choose to start your business while still keeping your current job, you can set your schedule through a booking solution like Wix Bookings, so you're only available during your free time.

  4. Achieve Work-Life Balance - Choose happiness now by starting a business with healthy boundaries (that you stick to!) A balanced life is one of the best gifts you can give yourself because you can enjoy life and the people in it more.

  5. Tax Benefits - It's important to talk to a tax professional to see the best option for your business, but tax benefits are a perk. Make sure you have a separate business account setup to keep your personal finances separate, and you can deduct business expenses, which helps your bottom line.

  6. Job Security - Many employees are stressed because they feel obligated to take on more responsibility and work than they are getting paid for. Instead, take your fate into your own hands and create a business that works for you.

  7. Watch Your Skills Grow - As a business owner, you'll learn and improve various skills that will help you better understand what you enjoy doing, and what you'll eventually choose to delegate or outsource.

  8. It's Easier Than Ever to Get Online - With web builders like Wix, getting your website online is easier than ever. The most important thing to keep in mind is to focus on making progress over perfection. Get something online and refine it as you go (rather than taking ages to tweak your website, but never launch it).

  9. Solve a Need in the World - Start your business with a problem and specific group in mind, and you'll feel good about providing a service that helps people.

  10. Explore Your Creativity - Whether it's coming up with a unique way of doing things, marketing your business, or solving problems, you're going to discover you're a lot more creative than you ever thought before. This will give you a boost in confidence as you continue to explore your interests.

Starting your own business can feel overwhelming, but like most things in life, if you break it down into manageable steps, you'll surprise yourself with how much progress you're able to make.


So, stop putting it off and take the first step. Make a list of the steps you feel are holding you back from making it happen, and assign due dates to each to-do.


There's no rule that you have to quit your current job to start your side business, so you have no excuse to not get started now!
