๐ช KNOCK, KNOCK!
They say that you have to wait for the right opportunity to come. โจ
Yes, timing is essential to success, but you also need to realize when to make it happen.
๐ฅ If you keep waiting for the next great thing to happen for your business, then you may be waiting for a while.
Itโs better to do something about it.
๐ฉ๐ฝ ๐จ Do you have an open mind ?
Having an open mind not only means being able to see challenges as opportunities, but it also allows you to perceive and come to terms with instances when the status quo isnโt working, either for the sake of efficiency or ethics. โจ
More than this, having an open mind will help you survive the hardest part of starting any business: survival mode. ๐ฅ
๐๐ฝ Where in your personal and professional life could you benefit from a little more open-mindedness?
๐ฅ๐ฅ SURPRISE ! Ugh, you donโt always like them !
An entrepreneur always has to face new issues, whether it is with funding or dealing with clients ! ๐ซ We like to plan ahead, and try to get everything perfect !
Although, it doesnโt always go according to plan. Or, maybe it could? ๐ค Try to imagine all the possible scenarios ! Great piece of advice from Brian Wong, Co-founder of Kiip.
๐ก Prevention is better than cure, guys !
โโ Don't make that mistake !

Treat your business as a business

๐ฏโโ๏ธ "You are what you eat", "you are who you hang out with" ...
Even though most of us wonโt admit it, many people weโve hung out with have a significant influence on our lives. โจ
If you spend a great amount of time with someone on a daily basis, acquiring their habits is inevitable. After some time, you start behaving like that person. Thatโs why we should all be careful about who we let into our inner circle.
๐คฉ What 'big entrepreneur name' would you like to hang out with ?
๐ฅ Your goal is your desired outcome. They are just a way to determine what systems need to be put in place.
Your system is the collection of daily habits that will get you there. ๐ช๐ฝ Without a cohesive and consistent system, you will have only inconsistent results.
๐ก If you want to know more about implementing good habits and break bad ones, read James Clear's book : Atomic Habits !
๐ง Think and Grow Rich ? Really ?
Napoleon Hill examines the psychological power of thought and the brain in the process of furthering your career for both monetary and personal satisfaction. Originally published in 1937, this is one of the all-time self-help classics and a must read for investors and entrepreneurial types. ๐
Here are the 7 main key points of this book !
๐ก "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve" - Napoleon Hill
๐ฅ Spending too much time planning will delay your ability to ACT!
Successful entrepreneurs ACT.
๐ค Itโs easy to get wrapped up in planning, funding, meetings and all... But what really matters is the action that will move you forward.
At some point, you have to walk the talk and make something happen.
๐๐ฝ Have you ever encountered such moment? How did you get things done ?
โจ It all begins with not settling for what is given to us. Your expectations decide the possibilities that will be available to you.
We do not just merely bump into the outcomes we desire. It is a combination of high expectations and taking the necessary steps, that get us what we want.
๐๐ฝ Set the bar higher.
Think outside the ๐ฆ!

๐ What do you do to stay creative?
๐ธ๐ธ The Bean Banker ๐ธ๐ธ
Popular brands all around us have a lot of stories to tell. ๐ There is a reason why they still continue to exist. Today, let's take a chapter from the Starbuck's story.
๐ What other genius business stories do you admire?
๐ May the challenge be within you !
If you want to be a successful entrepreneur, you have to challenge yourself. Who is the best person to push you? Look in the mirror ! ๐ค
No one else is going to, so itโs up to you to do it.
Challenges keep entrepreneurs smart and alert. If youโre constantly looking for the next challenge, youโll always be prepared for what comes your way.
๐ก What is your greatest challenge in your entrepreneurial journey?
๐ Do constraints really limit us?
We tend to imagine constraints as restrictive and often desire a perfect set of circumstances to undertake our creative pursuits. ๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐จ But the truth is, when we need to acheive a goal despite limitations, that is exactly when we are at our creative best.
๐๐ผ Constraints, then, are no longer boundaries of creativity, but rather the foundation of it.
Those are the words of Kim Siew, the founder and CEO of Lakaz d'Art. You want to know more about him? โจ

๐ Do you have a code?
A set of values will help and guide you and your company through unforeseen situations and difficult decisions. ๐๐ฝ As much as a set of values is important for a company, it should also be applied on an individual level.
๐ก What set of values do you live by?
๐ Let's get started !
In the beginning you will feel excited, inspired, full of everything good. And that will last up until the moment you start.
Then, when you start, you will be hit by everything bad and sour and ugly. You will be hit by a forcefield of fear. ๐คฏ
And it seems so reasonable. The excuses so real. The crappy thinking so true. The distractions so urgent. The drama so important.
๐๐ฝ But there is nothing reasonable about any of it. Itโs just a ploy. A ploy to keep you safe and small and forgotten. You just have to start !
