Journal Entry: Peter J Haslinger-07/04/2024-Lack of Resources

Journal Entry

Today is the 4th of July. We all already know what the outside world is doing. Fireworks, cookouts, family gathering and so forth. For me it’s a day off of work from Unicor. A day to take advantage of and catch up on some work. One of the things I was working on was my Business Plan for the trucking company. While working on this I am coming up on few obstacles as for lack of resources. I don’t have none of the big internet search engines or none the other trucking websites to find things I need. Things such as how the trucking economy forecast is looking? What the competitive rates are? What locations are the best to launch from? Information I would like to have to being able to list my strength and weaknesses or my opportunities and threats. Or to make accurate cash flow projections. I am using Mr. Santos avatar format to picture who I would be presenting the business plan to so I can use the Socratic questioning formula in order to build a business plan to the best potential it can have. When we don’t have the web or the internet we use the next best thing which is books. I have read several books to help me analyze everything I need. It may be a little outdated by 3 or 5 years but it’s good enough to use for now. When I do finally get to the outside I can simply make more accurate adjustments to the plan. Lack of Resources? No excuses! Where there is a will there is a way.
