I often have candid conversations with my friends in business- Entrepreneurship between friends! We don’t often sit around chewing the fat about the weather…Instead we choose to talk about the real life stuff. Like what it really takes to make money in business while being a mum!
Hey Nat,
Man this entrepreneur stuff…This working from home thing..It is tedious you know?
Yeah the biz books at school never told us about bloody having to still be a full time mum and wife while building a biz lol!
True. But why do you make it look so easy and achievable?
Cue my hysterical laughter! What my eyes have been opened to mostly in my journey, is how programmed, almost brainwashed into thinking, other people have it better. I wonder why this has happened? When did you start thinking I never have any problems? Because I put out a marketing dazzle razzle pic on social media?
Your photos you put out seem really amazing. Snigger! Gosh that is really interesting. I reckon it stems from having kids. We think it is only our baby who never sleeps, eats and everyone else’s baby’s sleep through the night! It is the social media posts too…Yeah they make it all seem fucking roses!
We both know you have to have the good and the bad. For some reason we walk into self employment kinda like a wanker…You know very full of ourselves and expect nothing but 100% victory, success and ZERO failures. Where in actual fact the opposite happens LOL!
Wow, yes that feels true. But how do you seem to just bounce back. Do you not get tired?? You just seem to get back up!
Because that is the magic answer. Showing up everyday. Then you quickly work out if you are in alignment with what you are doing. Even if I won lotto I would STILL do what I did now. But on a bigger scale, like a woolly mammoth!
The only launching, sales funnel you should concentrate on. Turning up everyday to do your new job. These are the rules of the business game. Either learn them, master them, rinse and repeat or get off the court!
Come on… What is that magic though? Turning up everyday…Seriously WTF is that!!! You must have a secret strategy?
It is affirming to yourself everyday that you are here for more. To make an impact, to generate your own wealth. You have an unshakeable belief about your big vision. So that the day to day failures just become part of your training, they are small and insignificant compared to the bigger vision. And that big vision may take 20 years….Can you see…If you don’t remind yourself everyday why you do this. And affirm how you want to live and show up…Like warming up. Understanding that the long term means that…Failing for a year, learning, clarifying and doing it again. And that the only fast track is by how quickly you get back up. Even if you had the best damn marketing strategy in the whole world from the best of the best…You have to execute that MOFO and if you think you are not enough, too afraid and that endless list of excuses….You will fail to launch. And go get a job.
Wow…Yes I see. It’s not about a quick fix or the strategy…It is your belief and action. Hahaha now I sound like you Nat!
Then my job here is done. It is in fact the biggest personal development journey you will ever take. But man is it worth it!
