I am known for taking the ball and running with it — I love to take initiative.

Are you motivated by the independence of being your own boss?

Are you able to focus for long periods of time (get in the “zone”)?

Are you aware that running your own business may require working 12-16 hours a day, six days a week, and maybe even Sundays and holidays?

Are you a leader?

Is your family prepared to go along with the strains they too may bear?

If something isn’t working, then I will give up and move on to a new project.

Do you plan ahead?

What was the main focus of your teenage years?

Unexpected surprises irritate me.
