Fabulous Advice from a Fellow Coach...
I recently received a question from a woman who had created the ideal life for herself. She had a lovely organic garden she tended, spent time daily in meditation and journaling, looked after her family and the household. Her dilemma was how to find time to start a business. It made me smile because obviously, something has to give. You wouldn't expect to have a baby and not let a few other activities go on the back burner for quite some time, such as work for example! Starting a new business is not unlike having a new baby in many ways. A new business needs a lot of time, attention, coddling and nursing until it gets legs and can stand on its own without so much support. And, like a child, that is typically a two to five year process. My first question would be, why mess up your ideal life with a new business? Then, if you must persist with the business, what can you most easily put on hold or delegate to someone else that would free up the time you need?
And, for all of us out there with one too many projects on the boil...is this really adding joy to your life? If not, get it off the plate! You can have it all, but may find it more enjoyable if it isn't all at once.
Warmest, Talane
