When the risk-taking types start thinking about BIZ Experiencesship, they're typically unafraid to sketch out a business plan, and if that looks okay, they'll likely have little trouble quitting their jobs to pursue it. When worriers think about an BIZ Experiencesial jump, they're typically paralyzed by doubts and fears.

Some doubts and fears are normal, of course. After all, BIZ Experiencesship can be a risky journey. But too many of those paralyzing thoughts are irrational, and they can trick your mind into seeing BIZ Experiencesship as an impossible dream.

The following five thoughts are examples of the illogical and crippling power of your own self-doubt:

1. 'It's too difficult.'

BIZ Experiencesship isn't easy. You'll face difficult challenges from the moment you sit down to sketch out your business plan. You won't really know what you're doing the first year. You'll work long hours just to scrape by. But there's no such thing as "too hard" if it's something you really want to do.

You may not be able to work 100-hour weeks or engineer some new technology all by yourself, but as the BIZ Experiences, you'll be making the rules and finding the resources to help you get that work done. It's no picnic, but if you're dedicated to the idea, all those obstacles won't feel like obstacles. They'll feel like opportunities, and you'll be grateful for the chance to overcome them.

2. 'I'm not good enough.'

All of us think this now and again, no matter what our position, intentions or prior experience. It's a natural and human instinct; and in some cases, it's beneficial because it forces us to strive for self-improvement. But when you think you aren't good enough to be an BIZ Experiences, there's no path to self-improvement; instead, you're stuck believing that start your own business isn't in the cards.

Yet, if history has shown us anything in the business world, it's that almost anybody can become a successful BIZ Experiences. School dropouts and past failures are commonplace as executives of now-massive companies. They got to where they were not by a fluke, and not because they possess some special genetic code, but because they believed in their ideas and worked hard to make them a reality.

3. 'I don't have the resources.'

This thought might actually be true; you might not have the necessary resources to start a business, such as capital, partnerships or equipment. But this damaging thought implies that you won't obtain the resources, and that's illogical -- in today's age of crowdfunding and online networking. it's possible to get almost anything you need to start a business. Start going to local BIZ Experiencesship meetups and get to know the influencers in your community. They'll be able to hook you up with almost anyone else you might need, whether you're looking for investors, mentors or just skilled talent.

4. 'That's a dumb idea.'

Almost every business idea starts out looking strange on paper. There are two reasons: First, on paper, descriptions never fully anticipate or illustrate reality, and second, your initial idea serves only as a rough draft for what your eventual company will become. The business you end up with can and should look very different from that initial supposition. Before you completely write off the credibility of your idea, start exploring it, ironing out the details, and showing it to people in the know to get their feedback.

5. 'If this fails, I'm ruined.'

This is the thought that stops most potential BIZ Experiencess in their tracks. Quitting your job, investing your own money and spending years of your life on a chance for BIZ Experiencesial success seems like a massive gamble, which might not pay off, leaving you ruined. But this is the case only if you allow it to be. Failure is never the end of the road: If your idea fails, you'll walk away with more skills, more experience, more contacts and more ideas, which means you'll be more valuable in your next endeavor, regardless of whether it's an BIZ Experiencesial one.

Don't let these irrational, unrealistic thoughts stop you from pursuing your dreams as an BIZ Experiences. It's going to be hard, it isn't going to be perfect and there's a very real chance that you will fail. But if you take calculated risks, work hard and keep moving forward, even failure will be a rewarding experience. Focus on what you know and remain as logical and objective as you can; if you feel the call for BIZ Experiencesship, don't let those nagging thoughts get in your way.
