As a long-time mentor to new entrepreneurs and business owners, I have noticed that many no longer associate more fulfillment and satisfaction with more money, power, and success. Before you start your business, think hard about your vision for fulfillment, and write it down. Don’t wait for a crisis to decide what is important.
After many extended coaching sessions with entrepreneurs and small business owners, I’ve found myself wondering if my value-add was anything more than you could get by self-coaching. It helps to partner with and coach others. Envision and focus on getting to that destination. Open up to growth and refuse to prejudge yourself.
I always thought that I must be lucky to have found so much excitement and satisfaction from my work, so I never had any really good answers to those of you who second category who wanted to move to the first. Don’t make commitments that have no potential for positive return on your effort, or no potential for learning or satisfaction.
With some coaching and mentoring from other leaders, I was able to do it myself, so I know you can do it too, by committing to the following strategies: Train yourself to always look for positives, not negatives. Write down your top 5 core values and review them often. Take satisfaction from wins to balance against setbacks.
Most of you business professionals that I know have at least thought about or talked about starting their own business, to get more control, make more money, or to get more satisfaction out of their life. You must feel satisfaction. Check out local sources for coaching and assistance.
That isn’t very fulfilling to the growing number of entrepreneurs whose vision and satisfaction comes from making the world a better place, and enjoying a leisurely lifestyle with friends and family. Write down the “ what” of your vision, but let go of “ how” it will be achieved; you can’t control the precise manner, form, or timing.
