"It has been my goal to start a business since ever I can remember." "This is my chance to turn the boat around, and realize my goals." Make lemonade, sell it on the streets at weekends. Voila! You have a business, and realised your goals. Right? I'll go out on a limb here, and suggest that your goal has more to it than that. You need to understand your constraints, and where those constraints come from. One constraint might be that the business needs to generate EUR x thousand per year, and the source of that constraint is probably your bills, rent/mortgage, etc. Another might be the location, or you might decide that actually that's a constraint you're happy to take away. Either way, and it's by no means the only consideration, thinking through these can help you focus the direction your business goes in. Oh, and good luck!
