You’ve planned other career changes and found that you can move from one job to another successfully. Now, you want to plan a different kind of career leap: the move to a home business. Are there differences between seeking out a job and starting a home business? What are they?

While it is true that you can take some skills from years of employment into the private business opportunities, there is much more to learn and do when you are establishing a home business. Don’t expect that the move to being your own boss will be as easy as the move to another job. It takes a very dedicated person to pull off a home business and make it grow. It can be extremely rewarding, but your planning has to be even more in depth than for seeking regular employment.
