Please slow down in 2020…
ESPECIALLY if you need to make more money,
even MORE especially if you have to / want to / desire to / feel called to make a LOT more money.
Hear me out, because I have NO aversion to “the hustle.” I’m just not in that “allergic to sweat” camp. I love the WORD hustle, I love the ACT of hustling, I love the adrenaline of hustling and I love the AFTERGLOW of the hustle. I love it all.
STILL….
There are too many women entrepreneurs hustling SO FAST that they’re literally doing all the work, but stopping short of actually collecting the cash they created. They’re frazzled, rushed, harried, overworked, overwhelmed, but often…. feeling underpaid.
Imagine it this way:
Back in the days of the Gold Rush…
many hustlers went out in search of gold.
MANY of them had a goal to cover (and claim) as much territory as possible,
you know…
before someone else got there and “found the gold.”
So, they’d DIG and DIG….
sweating and swearing….
to a certain depth….
And then they’d abandon that dig,
disappointed,
and then move on to the next spot….
HUSTLING as they dug,
again to a certain depth,
before quickly moving on to the next spot.
LATER,
more patient,
more deliberate miners would come along,
finding half-dug ores abandoned by a previous miner who was focused on covering MORE ground rather than going DEEPER.
Woman, DEEPER is always where the gold is.
My expertise is best described as an inch-wide, but a mile deep. My community… is similar. No VAST numbers, but a DEEP and ABIDING connection.
And THIS is where financial success lies.
Deep.
But I see too many women entrepreneurs trying to be everything to everyone everywhere. They’re too accessible, too busy, too rushed to even PICK UP the income and opportunity they’re creating. They’re like those unsuccessful miners…. sweating, swearing and moving on too quickly. Staying surface-level, too shallow.
As YOU head into 2020,
I BEG you to go deeper.
Not just for the money,
although … yeah, for the money.
But also for the OTHER gold:
The gold of peace and presence
the gold of having dominion over your day rather than being controlled by some outside schedule…
the gold of living according to your own priorities.
It’s ALL found when you go deeper with your message, your market and your habits.
xoxo,
Michelle
