3 Tips for Setting Goals as an Entrepreneur
When setting goals, three questions to ask yourself:
1. DOES THIS RESONATE WITH WHO I AM? Creating work or offering services that do not resonate with you as a creative or non-creative will drain you. anything that drains you before you started your business will do so even more after.
2. WHOM DOES THIS SERVE? You started your business to serve your demographic. If you are creating products that are not meeting needs, they are simply not products.
3. WHERE DO I NEED HELP? You are probably stronger in one area than you are in another. Most people are. Recognize that you are just one person. You are not a machine, and you cannot be expected to do it all and retain your sanity.

Reminder 2022 Business Strategy
If you have not completed your business planning for 2022, take the next week and work on it.
What are two large (macro) goals you want to achieve in the next 12 months? E.g., 50% growth in sales, growth in website traffic, organic social media followers.
What are milestones that will allow you to reach those larger goals? For example, add 1 staff in month 1, 10% growth in month 2, 15% growth in year 3, etc.
How much time do you need to invest to achieve your goals?
Break down timelines in months, weeks, and days.
What are additional resources needed to make this happen?
Where are these available resources? How will you gain access to these resources?
Remember, we all have weaknesses, in addition to strengths. Our weakness will allow us to fail if we do not find the strength that will negate the weakness. So if you have to trade services to gain strength to achieve these business goals, factor in that time as well.
These are a few questions you need to be answered before 2022 rolls around or before the end of January.

Chef Noel Cunningham
Can you work collaboratively with someone whose views you disagree with, views in areas unrelated to your collaborative work?
It is said that micro-entrepreneurs are more likely to succeed by collaborating to access scarce resources or to multiply their limited resources. We are in a time where ideologies are different across multiple lines, so how does one collaborate when our differences can be vast?

It is black history month and I am black.
I am here to celebrate you and myself as black micro-entrepreneurs.
Imposter syndrome says we have feelings of inadequacy despite evidence of our successes. Others think more highly of us than we do of ourselves.
You are not a fraud, you are amazing and is necessary for your country to succeed. You are a work in progress but a beautiful work of art, nonetheless. Enjoy your contribution to others.
