Hi All!
I hope you’re having a great start to the week. As always, here are your weekly tips and tricks to keep you on track with your goals in life and business.
1. “In a world that changes really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” – Mark Zuckerberg
Change is faster than ever, but it will never again be this slow. Technological evolution speeds up exponentially. Because each generation of technology improves over the last, the rate of progress speeds up from version to version. What does this mean to an entrepreneur? Wherever there is change and uncertainty, there is opportunity.
2. “People shy away from taking risks because they first want to know everything there is about the topic. Just start. You don’t have to be amazing in the beginning.” – Mike van der Poel
If you’ve been wanting to start a new chapter in your life, such as starting a business, but feel like you haven’t gathered enough information and courage to start, you might be delaying the decision indefinitely. Things are never perfect in the beginning; Perfection comes with practice.
3. “So many amazing opportunities arise when a chapter of our life ends. When we resign from a job that we weren’t happy in, or even get fired, it’s actually a blessing because a better experience is waiting to happen. It’s all about perspective.” ― Miya Yamanouchi
