Most of us are used to working in companies where other people take care of a lot of the day to day issues like accounts payable/receivable, procurement, marketing, HR, health, safety, environment, etc.
Guess what – you are it now.
If you don’t get it done then no-one else will.
Even worse, when you first start out you probably can’t afford any more than occasional advice from experts, and if you work it right, free advice from people you know.
The one given is that you won’t have enough time to do everything, but remember you have no-one else left to blame but yourself.
So, keep reminding yourself to stop thinking like an employee and start owning the business and the outcomes.
When you grow a bit and get on people in those functions – the next trick is to relax your control.
