When I took my first tentative steps to start an Internet business, it was so that I could add another income stream to my gardening/landscaping business which hopefully would allow me to be able to give my family a little better standard of living!

But it has become so much more! I have formed relationships with people from all over the world, who have similar Dreams and goals like myself, the great thing is we have all been able to share each others knowledge and support each other when needed either personally or business wise!

Can you remember the first mobile phone you got? Well I can , it was one of those carry over your shoulder jobs that my boss got me so that he could keep an eye on me( of course he said it was for my benefit) to be honest except for the size of the damn thing and the lack of a good signal (what’s changed) it was useful at times, especially for informing a customer that I was running a little late for our appointment!

With the birds singing at the top of their voices this morning! Spring must be in the air here in the Cotswold’s!

It,s not just the birds breaking into song either, the phone has at last started to ring again with both old and new clients booking work in for the season, now this is great new,s as there is still so much doom and gloom spread all over the newspapers and the TV!

No matter what business you are in, or contemplating to start,there is always plenty of competition!

When the idea first springs into your mind, you will be full of excitement and dreaming of making bags of money, it,s only when you start researching your idea , that you start to find so many people offering the same or similar service as you are looking to start!

That,s when those pesky gremlins start attacking your mind with doubts ”it won,t work you know” or “there,s too much competition” or whatever pesky excuses they infest your mind with!
