Letter from the Publisher...
Happy Valentines Day!
It is hard to believe it is already the middle of February 2020!! We are half way through the first quarter of the new year. As we all know, time goes fast!! How are your first quarter goals coming along? Are you projected to meet your goals? If yes, congratulations! If no, begin to implement your strategy to adjust wherever needed. As business owners, we have to constantly be ready to pivot. Do not get too caught up in the way you envision your life and business, the way you think it should be.
Often we have a vision of what our life, our businesses are supposed to look like. I have learned through my own journey and from interviewing hundreds of business owners and community leaders that our visions can complicate our journeys. Get out of your own way! Let go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and embrace what is unfolding in front of you. Embrace opportunities, even if it looks differently than you envisioned. With consistency and dedication, day after day, you will end up where you are supposed to be. You will achieve success, it just may look different than you imagined. Our business plans/ strategies, are only 'road maps'. The road to success is not a straight line. Learn to embrace the sharp turns and adapt wherever necessary. Be open minded, listen to others that have succeeded, accept that no one has all the answers (not even you) and never stop believing in you and your goals. Consider that you may just be exactly where you are supposed to be at this given time. Stay course with an open mind, pivot where necessary... YOU WILL SUCCEED!
