Finishing the things we start

In this guide we will be addressing an extremely important aspect in the personal development of every entrepreneur. Probably all of us at some point have started projects, actions and ideas that have been abandoned or eternally postponed. Finishing the things we started is a sign of discipline and respect towards our work, knowing how to conclude our projects, even if they do not have the end we expect, is very necessary to be able to start new ventures without having to carry past responsibilities, which sooner or later may come to light and alter our present.

Below we will talk about some of the key points on this subject, which turns out to be a very common phenomenon among those who share the spirit and love for entrepreneurship.

Obviously there are things that go well and others that go wrong, the important thing is to be aware that you have done everything necessary to rule out any possibility of obtaining better results than those you have already achieved. It is valid to give up a project if it does not show any prospect of success, a timely resignation can save you capital, time and energy on something that will not bear fruit.

The problem lies in not trying, in making this a practice in which every time things do not go well you abandon everything and start something else from scratch.

It is better to finish than to procrastinate

Procrastinating in most cases turns into never finishing it. When we postpone a project, it usually ends up forgotten, because it is natural that the market evolves, new ideas begin to attract us or that the conditions on which we had undertaken that project change radically. It
