  • Finish writing my “life’s mission” plan and discuss it with my family or friends.

  • Ask someone to be my mentor and set a time to meet.

B. I will write a plan in my business notebook detailing the ways I intend to grow my business when the timing is right.

C. I will write a plan in my business notebook detailing the ways that I could cut costs for my business.
