Another Goals Post

(Please excuse the cheesy photo - I thought this post needed something a little "extra"). I was recently contacted by an export company about potentially exporting my products overseas. Like anything, I'm finding, it's not nearly as easy as it looks between deciding whether this is a company I want to work with (under a 5 year contract) plus all the bits and pieces of bureaucracy that I have to get through simply to get the product ready for export.

And truthfully, I'm somewhat scared. Scared that I won't make the right decision with this. Scared that neither I nor the company are ready for this next step. And at the same time scared that this is a huge opportunity that I may potentially pass on.

Obviously I need to know more about the opportunity itself (have a phone call scheduled for Wends) but I think at the crux of it I need to reorganize my thoughts and figure out exactly what I want out of the company in the next 1, 3, and 5 years and then see if this fits in with that plan. Hoping to have some time today (while on the train from NYC to Philly) to put some of my thoughts in order in the hopes that it will give me a little more clarity in this and other matters. Guess I'm feeling a little lost right now as to what my goals really are which makes it very tough to accurately weigh potential future opportunities.
