*I am on a email list for Go Big Network and wanted to send you some helpful information for starting and owning your own business. This is one of their Funding Tips series.

You're Already Ready
Entrepreneurs often ask themselves when the right time to start a company might be. They hang around waiting for the stars to align, for their moment of inspiration to hit, and for their career to prepare them for something big.
Well I have some bad news for you. The stars will never align. The brilliant flash will probably never come, and nothing you will learn or do working for someone else will make you more ready to start your own company.
Now here's the good news – none of that matters. The truth is that you're already ready. There's absolutely nothing to hold out for in order to start your company. You really just need to get off your butt and get started. If you still aren't convinced, and think you've got a few more excuses under your belt, let's get rid of those right here and now.
You don't need more education
No matter what you're about to learn in school (short of becoming a surgeon) it's not going to make a lick of difference in starting your company. Sure, you may learn how basic accounting and bookkeeping works, but who cares?
You're not going to do so much revenue in your first year that your bookkeeping skills are going to make or break you. Even if you do, you can hire a professional bookkeeper for peanuts and never think about it again.
Anything you don't know now you can either figure out when you need to or find someone else that knows the answer. More importantly, there isn't a class in any school's catalog that will teach you how to take huge risks and always succeed. You'll learn more in your first year of running a business than you will in your undergraduate and MBA tenure combined.
