What should be my next move?

I need a some sincere advice here!

I am a little confused with life itself 

I am baffled with all the limitations that are at place 

Man-made Do's and Don'ts 

O Man, I need more 

I need more out of myself 

To be able to do justice to my imagination.. 

I know my potential has never had full actualization 

When I work for someone else! 

Now is it the right time to change the direction-

And pursue my entrepreneurial dreams?

I have tonnes of responsibilities needless to say, 

But is it the right time to take a massive risk?

Thanks in advance for helping me sort out my confusion!

I'm going through this situation at this point in time in life. A lot of people are realizing that we're living on borrowed time. Why be miserable by being a slave to a punch in time clock when you necessarily don't have too. You're wages are getting taxed leaving you with a nimble stack of dollars to live off of. Great write while shedding light on this intriguing social topic. :)

Thank you for broadening the perspective of this poem and you are right about taxes along with every other social norm that is happening to prove a nuisance. I hope you are able to sort your confusion very soon :)

[Frieda P]

That's what I love about you, always a force to be reckoned with! Go for it, there's not a timid bone in that body of yours....strong and full of moxy, even if you think you're confused, you know the answers to this one! Nice one Tink!

Frieda, babe will you mentor me?!?!?!?! lol, I am serious no word of joke there!

[Frieda P]

Ha now I KNOW you're insane! ;-)

[PP]

haha..so that is a YES! ?

[Frieda P]

Two crazy people together might cancel one another out...ha. ;-)

[PP]

haha..its a mad world after all, about time we took control? Do you not want to know about my business idea? Sure you do!

[Frieda P]

Sure, of course I do....I'm sure it must be brilliant coming from that noggin of yours!

[PP]

its about selling an Indian inspired snack called the 'pani-puris'. Google it for some pics, but the art behind this idea is 'all about cracking some crispy balls and stuffing them with yummy filling' hahaha..And again I am serious

[Frieda P]

Looks good, I will have to talk to my Indian friend who owns a market nearby. Looks like any type of filling will go, which is a good thing. I'd say start small, out of your kitchen and give out samples to get the flavor of how this would go over with people....sounds promising to me!

[PP]

wow that is awesome, look you are taking up the mentoring role already :) I am thinking of starting small like a weekend stall in daily market and then evening take out service may be and then see how it goes!

[Frieda P]

Yep start small, that's always better, til you get the feel of it, a stand sounds like a good idea....I'd definitely try giving out free samples beforehand, and maybe make up some literature or cards to go along with them, maybe the middle of the square in your town, make people want to buy them!

[PP]

taken on board! thank you darling x

[Frieda P]

It is always time to take a risk... life is short and tomorrow is not a guarantee, that is why you must do now what you can put off till tomorrow.

[PP]

This has seriously got me thinking now! Thank you ever so much Dale :)

Hi Prathama!

Like they say, No Risk No Gain! So we stay stick to safe mode and minimum returns or take that leap of faith, aiming for the sky! We either reach high or just phuttt!!! fall back to the ground. To get up and try again!

The ultimate decision is yours...

[PP]

Thank you Divya, I am the 'get up and try again' types! I just hate mundane boring 9-5 lifestyle. I guess the answer to my confusion in myself..hidden somewhere. Thank you for throwing some light over it x

BTW I have been on a trip to India and Dubai so wasn't writing too much! But back now, you will certainly see much of me now! How are you doing ? All good?

[AYVID N]

Yes thanks. I am all fine :)
I had similar issues some time back but have chose 9-5. Didn't dare to risk it all. But I know I'll always wonder about what could have been.

Nice to have you back! Have a great Valentine's day!

[PP]

You too darling x I am sure you took the right choice :)

[AYVID N]

thanks for saying that! :)
