[Exposed Day 20] Does a Purpose-Driven Business Feel Like Smooth Sailing?
"So is it all smooth sailing, now that you have your soul-purpose business?"
Anna asked me when we were chatting for my interview for the Sacred Success Salon.
Oh HELL NO.
Just because you do work driven by your heart and soul, doesn't mean that it's always going to feel amazing.
Just because you created the perfect business plan using just the right amount of wisdom, logic, and intuition doesn't mean that the entrepreneurial blues go away.
And that's okay.
It doesn't all of a sudden become rainbows and lollipops and if that's what you're expecting, then you'll be sorely disappointed.
And that's okay too.
Emotional roller-coasters, disappointment, fears ... these are all just part of this beautiful journey - called life - that we're on.
And running a business brings up your shit to the forefront to deal with.
A purpose-driven business?
Even more so.
And what if that is exactly how it's meant to be?
What if...
?? All of the curve-balls are just part of the journey, taking you closer to where you're meant to be?
?? That client who didn't enroll is just creating room for one who's a better fit?
?? The parts of your business that are a struggle are actually the ones to help you grow and level-up into more of who you were meant to be all along?
So you have two choices...
(1) See resistance, doubts, and challenges as a signal that something is wrong
OR
(2) Embrace the ride and lean into the discomfort to see what's on the other side
In my experience - the latter creates more magic in the long-run, even if the in-the-moment discomfort is really triggering.
Because discomfort isn't coming from your intuition, it's coming from your fears.
Solution?
?? Feel the discomfort and do it anyway ??
