When you started out, you had a mind map for your business. It seemed like such a straight-forward business plan. But now, your strategy for your consignment shop, buy-outright boutique, or not-for-profit thrift store more closely resembles the Hundred Acre Wood rather than a treasure map. Diversions (Tigger’s Bouncing Place) and reactions to past conundrums (Where the Woozle Wasn’t) are taking up all your brain’s territory.
