“If you can write the problem down clearly, then the matter is half solved.”
— Kidlin’s Law
For many aspiring entrepreneurs, the idea of moving to the United States to start or purchase a business is equal parts exciting and overwhelming. The E-2 Visa offers that opportunity—but for some, hesitation creeps in. Doubts swirl around logistics, investment risks, family adjustments, or the unknowns of living in a new country.
And this is exactly where Kidlin’s Law comes into play.
The Power of Writing it Down
When a potential E-2 visa applicant begins to feel paralyzed by uncertainty, it’s not uncommon. But one of the most effective ways to begin sorting through that hesitation is to put it on paper.
- What are you afraid of?
- What’s holding you back?
- What questions do you keep asking yourself?
- What would a “successful move” look like to you in 12 months?
The moment you begin to write out your concerns, goals, and questions—even in a messy bullet-point list—you start to gain clarity. You start to organize the fog in your mind into manageable pieces.
The E-2 Visa Isn’t About Perfection—It’s About Progress
No E-2 applicant has every answer from day one. But the ones who succeed usually follow a simple formula:
- They write out their vision.
- They identify the gaps.
- They create a basic plan to fill them.
For example, one client recently began his journey by jotting down his top five fears about launching a business in Florida. That single page helped him get clarity on what really needed his attention—turns out, it wasn’t immigration paperwork; it was worry about his teenage children adapting to school. Once that was clear, he could take action and start exploring schools, rather than staying stuck in anxiety.
From Hesitation to Decision
If you’re hesitating about making the move, don’t aim to make the perfect decision today. Aim to write it out. Apply Kidlin’s Law. Once the problem is written clearly, the path forward becomes far more visible.
You don’t need to jump—you just need to take the next step.
