There's a reality to small business success that is rarely addressed. Small business and marketing experts talk and write about the actions you should take to grow and succeed in your business. What they ignore is the truth that
Small business growth requires personal growth.
That's right. Your mindset, emotional intelligence, and self-esteem determine the level of success you experience in your business life. This is especially true in small businesses because, in most cases, you are your business. You may have employees or contractors who work with you. But you determine the direction and the ultimate success of your company. And success requires growth - mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
This process ALWAYS involves discovering conflicting thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. You'll find here creative ideas and effective tools to resolve these conflicts to get unstuck and back into action toward your goals.
Running a small business is a complex task, especially if you are creative (and dislike the mundane tasks that running a business requires) and have come from a corporate environment (where there were other professionals doing marketing, accounting, and customer service) or are re-entering the job market after raising a family and are new to the small business arena.
The draw of running your own small business, of being "independent" in your work is huge. And so are the challenges. I invite you to take advantage of this site to connect with the ideas, tools, and people that will help you grow yourself and your business.
