"Interestingly, koi, when put in a fish bowl, will only grow up to three inches. When this same fish is placed in a large tank, it will grow to about nine inches long. In a pond koi can reach lengths of eighteen inches. Amazingly, when placed in a lake, koi can grow to three feet long. The metaphor is obvious. You are limited by how you see the world."

Starting a Business with Limited Time and Money

By STEVE STRAUSS, AOL SMALL BUSINESS

Q: I would like to start my own business, but my problem is that I don't have a lot of money. I also have a job which I cannot quit. How do I start a business that way?

A: It is actually good that you have a job, since that makes starting a business on a shoestring much more viable: You keep the job while starting the new venture and work on it in the evenings and weekends. It will help pay the bills as you get started.While it would be nice to have a surplus of money to start your business, it is equally true that most small businesses are begun with less than optimal funding ... maybe not shoestring funding, but it can be done.
The most important thing is to pick the sort of business that can be launched inexpensively. Here are your best bets:

1. an online business
2. a service Business
3. a home-based business
4. a part-time business
