Start a company that survives longer than 2 years

does it count ??
i was my own boss but shit happens now i’m an employee again
any how how it’s an experience that worth trying
but i ‘ve learn something that i wasn’t ready enough
not enough money as investment
not enough sales people
not enough experience
not enough efforts
not enough passion to work till completion
not enough development for the project and for my self
i learned from my experience i may redo it again after recovering my self and having more experience i’m 33 may be at 45 coz iwant to get married to get my money back coz i don’t have any
but i still have my confidence
thanks to god first and thanks to my family that stands beside me my father and my sister

I am about to start my own freelance bookkeeping business…of course I would for it to last much longer than 2 years…use it to help take very good care of us and our future children! We will also be building our own home when we are able. Any input on this is greatly appreciated…thanks!

Tonight I returned to 43Things so I could update the team on the news that ChangeEverything.ca (a site inspired by 43Things) has been nominated for a Webby. (It’s up against Facebook, among others, in the social networking category. Please vote for Change Everything at http://pv.webbyawards.com !)

As I always do when I come back to 43T after a while, I cruised down my list of 43 Things. And here it was: the goal of starting a company that survives longer than 2 years.

Well, we’ve not only done it (we’re now at 29 months, officially) but we’ve even made the short list for a Webby. Not bad for two years in!

But it has been all ups and downs. It’s beginning to stabilise now and is looking good for the future. It has been difficult so far and no doubt will continue to be so. But it is getting better…

从2006年4月26号开始，你就开始过一种挺与众不同的生活，你一定可以的，你是个好姑娘，上天在看着你，上天会保佑你

Don’t forget to sell it after a few years…

This goal is too far out.

but haven’t done w2 work for two years :-) Does that count?

Does it help that I’m going to finally be getting the proper hardware and website to actually sell my product?

Out consulting and making good money for around 2.5 years now. Definitely worth a go if you have the motivation, it beats working for the man any day.

...but I don’t want to be an accountant and a lawyer and a janitor. I’ll stick with “executive” for now.
