Have you ever spent time around little kids?
Their energy is infectious, their honesty is palpable and their capacity to dare and dream is inspiring.
Did you know your business is your child?
Not in the literal sense, but in the metaphorical sense.
If you want it to grow, you have to put resources, effort, and discipline into it and make sure it avoids its raging tendency to go off the rails.
You also have to wait a very long time to see what it becomes.
You think your business is the best thing ever, so does your buddy at your coworking space. Who is really telling the truth?
The point is you hold the keys to how your child ends up, for the most part.
You’re going to shape it’s personality and ethos based on your daily input. Will you choose the path of least resistance as most do and live to satisfy the child and it’s many whims. Or will you take the road less traveled and challenge your business to be all it can be and be unpopular at times?
See your business as your child, and you will be able to make a paradigm shift that allows you to see your business as it really is. A unique creation that can make the lives of others easier, better, more comfortable, more enlivening.
