The DivsFeed Podcast: Stories that create a ripple of goodness

Entrepreneurship, and or starting a business, definitely has its challenges, but the fear of perfection should not be the reason you don't start.As I’ve seen too many times, entrepreneur-minded individuals are often hesitant or reluctant to kickstart their idea into motion because they can’t launch it at the visionary ideal they built up in their head.They keep seeing the end product and say, “I don’t have the investment to create that…” – where instead, they should be looking at the beginning and say, “I know what I want to build, let me consider my resources, and how can I start with what I have?”The biggest miss we make is not thinking about or knowing what resources we actually have access to when wanting to start something - resources like people, technologies, services, or existing infrastructure...
