What is going on in the mind of a person when the desire to go-it-alone takes hold? Where do you start? When do you start? How do you start? What obstacles and struggles can one expect? In a conversational style, the author shares his small business journey in landscape contracting in a simple and vulnerable way. The hope being it might spark the next entrepreneur to dream of a way to meet both their personal needs and the market place. Or it may inspire an existing small business owner to take their business to another level. Either way, the world will be better for what they create.
