My brother and I have a couple of businesses mostly to learn how... but their fun. The odd part is there is 8 of us (brothers/sisters/sisters-in-laws) with TS clearances... and guess who's a disabled vet... yep, my brother. So we are in process of starting a small consulting outfit.. you've seen this before, and of course we live in Northern Virginia... so all is perfect, right?
But we can't settle on a name for our company... and we've been down this path for 4 months... so I've finally talked to the others and we realized my brother is worried about actually making the leap from his easy job to the rough and tumble side of DoD contracting... and we all thought it was just the business name!!!
Interesting... motivation and fears... we'll take smaller steps... albeit in the direction we're heading, but a bit slower. The key is to recognize the problem... which may or may not be what you're working on....
