I am new to this blogging game, so while I may not seem experienced at writing, I am experienced in my craft and take pleasure in being able to help people. I hope that you join me on this journey.
Ok, so here it goes…
I want to discuss how to maintain the real you as you attack this entrepreneurial world. How do you stand out from the crowd and yet blend in while keeping your uniqueness?
First things first, be grateful for who you are and what you do. Having a passion and fire for what you do is a key to attracting clients while maintaining yourself. If you don’t change yourself for what you do (your job if that’s what you prefer to call it), you will find true happiness within yourself. Of course, you still have to find that balance between your “work” life and your family life, but remaining you is the best first step.
You need to be kind to yourself. Too much harsh criticism is detrimental. It’s ok to be hard on yourself, but use it sparingly. Your self-confidence and esteem suffer as a result, which makes it harder to be successful. You have to believe that you can do it, and do it without fail. Failure is just not an option!
Thirdly, let go of all that perfectionism. Nobody can be perfect, but it seems that a lot of us try. Full of worry, full of doubt, we walk around second guessing everything. This is no way to live. Go with your instinct. It is your body telling you something. You are supposed to make mistakes and learn from them. It’s time to let go.
Let go of any judgment that you have for yourself. Stop comparing yourself to anybody else. Everybody is on their own journey. You never know, you could be comparing yourself to someone who has years more experience than you. This is not fair to yourself. Time to be fair.
Let’s stay positive. Thinking in a positive mindset will keep your spirits up and help you to feel awesome about yourself. This task is not easy. In fact, it’s quite hard, but you can do it.
Everything is going to take some time to accomplish, so try to have some patience. I know that you want to get things moving faster than they may be, but patience is truly a virtue. It allows you to think everything through and make sure every step is taken at the proper time.
Let me know how you do. I would love to be your support throughout your journey.
