what's up guys happy Friday as promised
I'm back and very much all over all over
this again lucky you and thank you to
all the love I received yesterday after
announcing I was pregnant that meant a
hell of a lot and and yeah it was it was
really special so thank you last few
weeks had some time to reflect and do
some reading think on some conversations
I've had with clients and I just thought
I'd kind of share some of those thoughts
because they're particularly person they
really resonated with me and I think
it's damn important what are they so
I've been reading I was listening
initially to a podcast by Mary Portas
and Elizabeth day and it was all around
how to fail and embracing that and what
did that mean to them and they obviously
both mentioned their books and I've kind
of gone away and been dipping it in and
in and out of them so Elizabeth days was
how to fail awesome massively recommend
it I'm Mary Portas is work like a woman
different but good what they were
talking about was knowing your tribe
which I've talked about a lot before but
actually in business how this is as
important as the people you surround
yourself with you know in terms of the
friends you chose and this was kind of
consolidated when I was having a chat
with a fellow business owner yesterday
and that conversation went along the
lines of do you know what I've been
going for a number of years now but I've
realized that I want to change course of
the business there are certain areas I
enjoy a lot more and I want to enjoy
more I do this was immediately justified
by it doesn't mean I'm work shy and I
think that is a real key key thing that
is so deeply ingrained within us that
work has to be tough we don't always
enjoy it
and actually if we say we always want to
enjoy it that means we're work shy we're
not hard of and we're not keen on I'm
really great at getting their grind on
and that's rubbish because there are
very different things so it was about
reassuring them and it was about
thinking them myself
I'm kind of reflecting on who I was
working with and is it working for me
it's all about bringing value to my
clients it's about having an honest open
relationship a good relationship strong
relationship by the very nature of what
I do I have to I have to get under the
skin of the business and it's pretty
damn personal and and I just think you
know there's a little bit of a thought
at the end of the wake give yourself
permission as a business owner to choose
who you work with you don't have to get
up in the morning and I think you're
going to a specific client thing god
this is hard work this is just hard work
and I feel like I'm pushing water uphill
it doesn't have to be that way and to
reiterate you saying I want to enjoy who
I work with doesn't mean it's always
going to be easy or that your work shy
so it is about finding your tribe is
about knowing your tribe it's about
knowing who you can best help with
whatever you do service or product so
that's a thought for me today have an
awesome weekend guys see you later
