Owning a Business

Although I do not want to own a business, I was taking a break from work and surfing the web and I came across someone blogging about a window washing business. This led me to wonder, if I could start a business, what would it be. The obvious answer would be a contract instructional designer because that is what I know but I would like to learn something new and then teach it to others. The only thing that I can think of is scuba diving. For several years, I have contemplated learning how to scuba dive and I think that it would be great to take new people down to explore the ocean and caves. Providing an opportunity for people to see sites that they have never seen before and sites that cannot be see without going in the water. To me, scuba diving is an event that cannot be adequately simulated. One must actually get in the ocean to experience it properly.

The funny thing is, I am not that fond of the ocean but for some reason this urge came over me. Will I ever follow it through? I think that I will but I doubt that I will ever teach other people to do it because I have realized, I freeze when "all eyes are on me." I am so afraid of "messing it up" that I try very hard not to get into situations that leave all responsibility on me. Hey, at least I know it and am honest about it. I guess, I want someone else to blame - ha ha:)

Well, there is my two cents on the business that I would own if I had any desire to own a business and I do not:)
