An Apple Watch by far one of the items that has made a great difference in my entrepreneurial journey. Timers at the tip of a finger and if and when I take the time to create multiple notifications to avoid forgetting as much as possible uhm yes, definitely a small business owners best friend 😅

Setting the Stage for Your Entrepreneurial Success

Running a business, requires preparation, anticipation and flexibility. Back in middle school, as a member of the stage crew I was able to be a part of the process required to make a show a reality. Props, costumes, sets all had to be created , that took time. The actors and actresses all had to rehearse and then perform, that also took time and preparation.

Planning. Coordination. Syncing.

All are essentials for entrepreneurial success.

Different types of businesses and crafts require different specifics. Every project and every endeavor will inevitably bring together a unique combination of materials, gifts, talents and skills.

However, at their core, they are all aiming for the same goals. SUCCESS, GROWTH, ACHIEVEMENT.

The differences come in the unique perceptions, perspectives and definitions of the individuals.

We are all seeking our own version of serenity, our version of happiness and success.

For some this vision for themselves involves acquiring physical belongings, others intellectual wealth, others power and authority, others independence, others spiritual well-being, and others creating a legacy. And, sometimes we seek all of these but all to different extents.

You are Creating Your Serenity.


And yet when we all do our part, what creates our Serenity will inevitably bring value to others if we stay true to providing a service.

And that’s the beauty of business.

To set the stage for your entrepreneurial success, take the time to analyze what the world needs, what you can do about it, what connections will you make, that bring unique solutions?

Priorities as a Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur

Multi-passionate entrepreneurs as Marie Forleo opts to define it …have several interests, passions,& career paths they may pursue at any given time.

Marie herself is a dancer, podcaster, business coach and much more.

If you’ve just recently started your entrepreneurial journey you may be starting to notice the multiple roles you ought to play with your business just to keep it moving. There’s the financial side of things, prep work (gathering supplies, materials, resources) , marketing and advertising, customer service, and of course delivering on the product or service…just to name a few.

If you’ve been on the journey for a little you may be have confronted some “growing pains". These include, feeling like there is just not enough time in the day to complete all the things. As a result you may just now be considering hiring help or outsourcing certain tasks but being used to being the one person to take care of it all has you in turmoil about relinquishing control. Realizing just how valuable your mind and body are and that maybe just maybe yours doesn’t follow or want to adhere to “typical, common” diets, sleep habits, because ultimately you’ve chosen a path that many would rather not consider. If you do pursue it though your particularities will start to speak & radiate through, take a moment to observe & listen.

Having attempted to do it all at an early age I’ve had my share of burnouts. Having multiple passions and interests doesn’t make things easy. However, I wouldn’t give that up. One of the best ways to help sift through the plethora of opportunity involves asking some serious questions. Among them:

  • Will I regret not pursuing this path?

  • How does it contribute to my overall vision?

  • Am I willing to confront the challenges (stress/anxiety) that will inevitably come in pursuit of this goal?

  • Am I becoming the person I am aiming to become?

Regardless of the journey you opt to take there will be haters, contrarians, doubters, bullies. Sometimes these beings are people with close access. Coming to the the realization that these people are simply at a different place in their journey helps to view their comments perhaps even hatred through a different lens. This perspective will help give you freedom from those negative comments to then be able to follow through on your goals without leaving you with newly formed hatred or resentment towards them. Your time is far too precious to be lost in pettiness or hatred. Use the fuel generated by such things instead to CREATE.
