The purpose of this blog

I see a lot of websites concerning people starting hustles.  Or websites about people starting several enterprises.  In both of them the idea is either to keep it as a hustle and earn extra income from it.  Or its taking them to the next level and be able to make enough money to quit a day job.

But in no websites I have seen a place for those whom starting, nurturing a startup is a passion.  Such so that one creates a business just for the sake of creating businesses.  If it works... good.  But if its not... oh well... NEXT!

I am such a person.  I thrive at starting stuff.  I am not good in maintaining them.  That's ok.  To each his or her own skills.  I am never thrilled more than when I have to start a new project.  Where I see people staring with their dead fish eyes not knowing what to do, I jump in.  And I create order from chaos.  I structure, organize, formalize.  I create rules where there were none.  And once its up and running.  When you only have to follow the procedure to keep it up.  I loose interest.  And I have to move on to the next project.

I've lived it severa times at work.  Creating product, offers and even department from thin air.  I decided that I would try to further my skills at starting businesses from scratch.

You see.  I hear a lot about people that says that they would start a business if they only got a single idea what to start.  For me.  Its the other way around.  I have a gazillion business ideas per day.  I'm just not good at executing them.  My intention is to change that fact.  I want to keep up with my creativity.  But I also want to be able to implement them.

So this blog will be the place where I collect the data about my different businesses.  Success, failures, findings.  I will log it here.

I will also try to use the scientific method.  Analyzing my business on the perspecive of objective data.  That way I could may be help to formalize a little what it takes to become an entrepreneur... we'll see.
