Filling my glass in 2021

Entrepreneur

Jan 1

Happy New Year, friends! I find New Year’s resolutions daunting some years. So much pressure to decide on the perfect thing to change on January 1, then the disappointment that ensues if by February, I’m back to old habits. Who’s been there?

This year, I decided to instead consider what I want to fill my glass with in 2021, as well as what do I need to pour out in order to do that.

Pour out

Insane business travel. No correlation to biz success (and def no causation).
Overscheduling. Busy is not a badge of honor.
Imposter syndrome. 'Nuff said.

Fill my glass with

My tribe. Find your true fans, meet them where they are, serve them well.
Simplicity. This industry is full of smart people. Smart people overcomplicate things. Basics for the win.
Heart. Your backstory and your why matter more than your what. The heart buys first.

Are you working on resolutions and goals? How are you filling your glass? What do you want to pour out?
