Personal goals chart

A key step in assessing whether you are ready to start a business is to consider your personal goals. Make a list of your goals to help you identify:

• which goals your business will help you achieve
• any areas of potential conflict (between personal and business goals)
• how you can eliminate or reduce conflict between your goals
• which goals are absolute priorities
• which goals you are willing to compromise.

Create a list of your goals by reading the sections below and typing your answers into the personal goals chart.
