19.04.2013 - Slowing down


We realised today, that we just stepped into a phase in opening a bar, where there it is a bit hard to write something everyday and still be interesting for people who read us. The thing is, that some days now, nothing really happens apart from everyday things, walking the dogs, going out shopping, watching movies on the internet and look for bars to view. Today we found two that we are going to check out next week for sure, and then we will see. It is not so many bars for rent, or at least all the criteria narrows it down, such as the rent for a month, the location or the pictures. We have something very unique in our head and it is a bit hard to meet those expectations. 

The real road of opening your own business is a bit more difficult than it seems when you come up with the idea, then all the things appear as you go, we dont have a place yet, but we spend our saved money, because we have to, so we have to get used to now to the opposite to what we did in Vienna, instead of saving, we have to spend with no income, which can be scary. The key element is probably to be very very organised with the money, with the tasks that you have to accomplish, and never never forget what you are working for. Since it is an untangible thing at the moment, it is harder to think with it as well. Neither of us is really scared of doing something new, maybe I am a bit more than Scott, but this is going to be a big challenge, that we have to take step-by-step, otherwise you really get lost in the small things. Of course it is impossible to think about everything at the beginning but we have to try to be ready for the difficulties and handle them well. So, this is why we decided we are going to write the blog, but sometimes not everyday, so we dont become repetative or boring. The goal is to record all the important chapters of this exciting process, which we are still going to do. Slowing down refers to what we should do in a way, not about the business but about everything else, which is a really hard thing for both of us:)
Anyway, we will take a risk and live the dream no matter what!!!:))

In the middle of difficulties lie opportunity
