Create- Get to those goals: How to: “ Run your business like a Boss Lady”!

So you have the grit, the guts, and the hustle- all of the components that make you a phenomenal “Boss Lady”.

Turning that all into a thriving business requires more than just desire. Here are a few KEY techniques that will empower your way to success.

Own your power, but stay humble: There is a fine line between being “The Boss”, but it needs to happen in a way that invigorates & inspires others. Form a community where open communication is key, and be willing to hear & listen to all points of view on any subject while running your enterprise. The better we listen, the more we grow and are able to recognize the opportunities around us.

Know Your Numbers- Your financial literacy is your superpower. Understanding your budget, profit margins, and cash flow will empower you to make good decisions & withstand any challenges. Ten minutes a day of recording incoming & outgoing numbers will give you clarity & foresight that helps your company stay on track

• Learn to Delegate & Do so- You can’t do it all, nor do you want to. Learn how to delegate tasks effectively, this will free up your time to focus on the areas where you do your best work. It’s a win-win way for everyone & will free up your time to put towards the things that make you shine. Find & incorporate systems within your business that will bring forth capital while you sleep, and once set up they can make work seem like a breeze.

• Invest in yourself & your network- Always keep learning & growing. Attend events that your business supports, take courses, and keep on connecting with other inspiring entrepreneurs. Avoid complacency in all ways possible & remember that connection expands our world & those around us while it broadens the horizon ahead. Remember that “ Knowledge is power,” and will empower your path towards success.

Love / Surrender and Acceptance

When life doesn’t seem to be working out in the way that I think it should, I need to accept the reality, find peace within myself, and surrender the need to control. Accepting life’s reality means accepting change and realize that it is a fundamental part of life and will happen. Holding on to situations lightly can ease the emotional loads I carry, and also reduce attachment and suffering. This means I still care, yet I’m able to detach from attaching. Practicing acceptance has brought me peace of mind, and it can really help me to surrender. Finding peace within myself means accepting everything that’s happening around me and not take it personally. It involves learning to trust the process of what is happening, and let go of the outcomes. Many times the most challenging experiences of my life have led to my greatest growth. The need to control is powerful for me, and I developed this negative trait as a survival technique growing up in a household with alcoholism ...

The Shoebox

He did this on a regular basis, and I now realize that back home, he raised the them & sold the adult birds for profit. My first memory ever is lying down in my crib as an infant, with the white bars surroundin...

Boulders & Bears / The gift of Sponsorship in 12 Step Programs

  Recently, I began calling my Sponsor “Mama Bear” after watching her handle a situation in an Alanon 12 step meeting with loving detachment.  The nickname stuck, as through our time together, she was presented with many new challenges, and having big adventures facing them head on. My sponsor was climbing the “Big Boulders”, of life and it was inspiring to witness this as I worked through both the 12 Steps &12 Traditions with her.  As I began to try new things in my recovery, I realized that I could not (yet) scale the “Big Boulders” that my  “Mama Bear” sponsor was climbing. For a few days I fell into “compare & despair”, then suddenly the realization came upon me. I am a “baby bear ” in my program/recovery and “Progress not Perfection ”, showed me that I can simply do my best with what I have, “Just for Today .  “First things First ” taught me that I cannot do the big things until I do the small ones, and “How important is it”?   Shows me ho...
