different to my business partners who were putting their families and their friends first, I had a wake up call and pulled the pin on the business. I realized that my goal of having a thriving successful business that would be supplying wealth to my family may never eventuate or at the very most, would take up to five years before I could draw a proper income. This was not a situation that my family were happy with and the stress was negatively affecting my relationships. I decided that I valued myself more than what I was doing so I resigned.

4. Are you close to breakthrough?
Sometimes people quit just before their breakthrough. If you could look just over the horizon, can you see success coming to meet you. Intuitively you may already know what is the right decision to make. Sometimes you need to dig your heels in and be tenacious and laugh in the face of those who would mock you. Noah built an ark when there had never been rain. But he was proven wise when the rain started to fall. Is your gut instinct leading you into success or away from it?

I don't think there is any right or wrong answers on closing the doors of a business. If you need to close though, make sure you do it with integrity. Look after your customers because you never know when you may need to call on them in the future. Keep them informed and refer them onto someone who has a similar service to you that you can trust.
