Commit to a deadline for buying a business (not just "looking" for one).
- Set aside time every day to work on this project.
- Organize your finances.
- Work on determining what type of business will thrive from your strengths and not suffer from your weaknesses.
- Seek professional advice from a qualified accountant and attorney.
- Unless you have a wealth of experience buying businesses, then educate yourself about this process. Learn as much as you can. When it comes to investing in your future, you can never know too much!
