My Birthday Party Event was another way for me to build a project around something or someone I care about, ME!
There was a full agenda as you can see from the flyer below. I did it to allow folks to come when they had the chance to drop in. My birthday used to be club experiences with people in my circle dancing their butts off and smiling the whole time. The lesson I learned about this year's party is that people will show up the way that works for them within the time that they have. And that is something that needs to be appreciated and acknowledged - no matter if it is for 5 minutes or 1 hour. The theme for this year's birthday was, "Gratefully Connected" and I thought that was so ideal for the situation we were in.
I don't know what next year will bring but one thing that needs to be understood about YOU and YOUR BORNDAY is that you are special, so give people the ability to celebrate you and everything you bring to this world. And especially for the entrepreneurs who are continually investing in their dreams or the givers who are continually supporting others. There must be a day and a time in which you acknowledge yourself and the value you bring to this world. If you don't do it, who will?
Lastly, I gave people options on how they can gift me support. My projects are important because it brings my vision into the world of how we can change lives and situations. More often than not, entrepreneurs need folks to advocate or share our product/service and at times money is needed. But money is not needed more than exposure and reach if that makes sense.
