5. Passion projects

If you have ever had an unfulfilled dream in the business field, now is the time to make it come true!

Many of us work our whole lives without starting our own business out of fear of failure. I have enough knowledge that has shown me it is possible even in retirement.

A friend of mine, Elizabeth, has always had a passion for crocheting; she absolutely loves making all kinds of patterns. When she retired, she started crocheting even more, and her granddaughter helped her open her own business. Now she makes pillowcases and handkerchiefs as a side gig.

Isn’t it incredible? With age, we should become braver because life has taught us that every setback makes us stronger, and nothing can bring us down! It’s time to start your dream business.

In case you are wondering what to do in order to start your own business, you can read the book Starting a Business All-in-One
