šÆāāļøšš
Iām a quiet personā¦..
And also a quiet achieverā¦ā¦
I think I always have beenā¦ā¦
In a lot of ways really.
The words āI thought you were a bitch when I first met youā are often ones spoken to me.
The reality is - I just donāt have time for surface level small talkā¦ā¦
My facial expressions run off 10 miles ahead before Iāve had a moment to even think about catching themā¦ā¦.
And there isnāt a seat at my table for everyone.
A taste of what quietly achieving in my little bubble - so far - this year has looked likeā¦ā¦ā¦
Being home more often than not for the first time in twenty something years and embracing the little hermit that I actually am and now get to be.
Having the ability to do school (or these days work) drop offs.
Creating - in all of the ways, both for myself, my clients and my team.
Replacing my old corporate income while being mostly barefoot and always completely hydrated š
Reaching milestones in businessā¦..
and then also missing someā¦ā¦..
Managing to keep a flower garden alive for the first time in my 40+ years.
Showing up for myself before anyone else.
And turning my back on the idea that the only way to bring value online is with the regurgitated kind ā¦ā¦
But by far the greatest achievement :
Entering that glorious time where the f***s you have to give are few and far between, the āi should do thisā, is now replaced with āi actually donāt think i willā and the acceptance of knowing that while I will be for some, I wonāt be for a truckload of others.
Sometimes it can feel like being a āquiet personā is the thing that will hold you backā¦..
Particularly when you step into this wild online landscape and taking up space is something thatās required.
But what if itās that quiet disposition of yours that becomes the very thing to propel you forward?
