Success Planning: What’s Your Startup Business Plan For 2011?

Startup Business Plan Start on TracksThe Holidays are over and now it is time to get into your startup business plan for 2011. Maybe you are dragging and not that enthusiastic.  The good news is that this is normal.  The bad news is that it’s time to get after it and make 2011 your best year yet.

You may ask, what do you mean by a startup business plan?  You already have a business or you are working at a job.  A startup business plan is about how to bring renewed energy and passion to your business, your life or both. 

Your Startup Business Plan Step One:  Know Where You Have Been

It is important for small business success and your own personal development to take a look at where you are at.  What worked in 2010?  What didn’t?  You can’t have good success planning without knowing where you have been.  Step one is to write down where you have been. 

Your Startup Business Plan Step Two:  Create A Vision Of Where You Want To Go

Next, what are you going to focus on in 2011 that will improve your business and life?  Now you must create a vision of where you want to go.  Make this vision as precise as possible.  Since it is the start of the year it is a perfect time to have a startup business plan. 

It’s time to transition out of the Holidays and to build that forward momentum to keep or put you on track for greater small business growth and personal success. 

Your Startup Business Plan Step Three:  Know What You Must Do In The Present

If you don’t create a clear vision of the future you want you will end of wandering around in the present…..and wasting a great deal of time and energy.  For the present to be worthwhile and exciting you must be focused on what your actions in the present are doing to give you the future you want. 

These are the three steps you must take to give you the small business growth and personal success you desire.  Most people can tell you where they have been.  Very few people can tell you precisely, and the key word is precisely, where they are going. 

Whether you are a self-employed business owner, solo professional, entrepreneur or an individual who works for a company now is the time to get a firm hold on your vision of the future you want.  In the many keys to success, creating a vision of the future is the foundational key

In creating this vision you must be specific.  The more specific you are the more likely you are to increase the odds of your success.  When shooting at a target no one says that you were successful if you hit the outer rings.  No, you are successful when you hit the very small center of the target, the bull’s eye. 

To have a good startup business plan for 2011 find the bulls eyes in your business and life.  Then determine the steps you must take to hit them.  As you hit the targets in your startup business plan your self-esteem and momentum will build to give you your best year yet in 2011.
