Leap!: Ditch Your Job, Start Your Own Business & Set Yourself Free
Published by Capstone, January 08
Leap! isn’t a book about how to set up a business, describing the nuts and bolts of what you need to do. It doesn’t offer tax advice; it’s not about financial planning, business plans or exit strategies. It offers no new theories on management success, no secret formula to make millions. It’s simpler than that. It’s about the approach to a new way of working. About what you need to survive and succeed in the new world of business, in the scrambled up world of work…
Being self employed is not just about having good ideas; it's about being enterprising, innovative and how well you can make it up as you go along. The thought of running your own business can be both scary and exhilarating. If you're stuck in a rut and bored working in a dead-end job, it's easy to think that working for yourself is the answer to your prayers. But it's not that simple.
Working for yourself can be a liberating experience, reinvigorating your life with a new energy. But it can be lonely at times. What are the pitfalls? What are the upsides? And, what about the really important stuff - like who's going to make the tea?
Leap! navigates you through this workscape with four key areas to focus on for success:
1 Having the right ATTITUDE.
2 Applying an ENTERPRISING approach.
3 Knowing the tricks of the trade to be SUCCESSFUL.
4 Adjusting to your new WORKLIFE.
