Hi guys,
In this thread I’m gonna share with you what I want to accomplish in the next weeks, months, years. I’m launching my own company, it's a metal construction company. As a metalworker, I’m obsessed with metal and creating stuff with it! My company will start manufacturing yard gates & fence systems for farms, yards and homes.
I’m planning to build railings, stairs and window frames for architects and builders. I’m thinking about offering a 24h welding and repair service, since I’m based in the countryside.
My plan for the future is: personal Freedom.
I’m not making rigid plans or goals Why? Because I don’t know what tomorrow holds, I’m not God! Setting a goal like ‘10 employees and a million bucks in a year’ feels like a trap. I don’t want to stress myself out over arbitrary targets. No, life is unpredictable and I don't want to make stupid decisions based on my ignorance and then feel like a failure just because I set a goal and couldn't achieve it. I’m keeping things flexible instead of locking into a rigid business plan. I want to adapt as I go, but my focus is on building a sustainable metalworking business. I've been trapped in my head for the last 8 months with, how can I do it? How’s this even gonna work? BUT NOW IT'S OVER. I'm starting NOW and just as I grow, my business will too and God willing I will become a successful independent entrepreneur!
I will keep you updated in this thread and I’ll share my wins and screw-ups (and how I solved them) but this will not be my diary! I'm not going to post to-do lists because they’re pointless, every day’s a new adventure and I’m grinding to make my dream come true! I don’t need a school-style list to run my day lol
So that’s the deal, folks! once my website for the metalworking biz is ready I’ll drop the link in the comments. Got any tips or ideas for my company or my journey? Hit me up!
Greetings
Tom
