Focus on zero expectations to thrive in business.

The minute i become a slave to what someone else may or may not be able to provide, i become dependent on something i cannot control.

Stay away from these situations.

Lean on the insane creativity you’ve cultivated over your lifetime.

Cash in on it.

The solutions you are looking for will be simple and they will set you free.

There is an exception to nearly every rule, including this one

Inspiring Buddist quote
There is an exception to nearly every rule, including this one.

 

Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will. – unknown

While we show up for work for 40-50 years, we are also bringing our whole person with us.

Who leads us if we have a boss?

Many of us unconditionally believe that there is a God and a higher power or spirit.

Some of us even go as far as to say Jesus is the Son of God.

It is this notion that there is a Father, a Son, and a Holy Spirit that nothing can change for devout Christians.

While the only constant is change, for them the only exception is Jesus.

  • driven to get ahead, always chasing the prize of more
  • going through the motions, trying to avoid painfully watching the clock

The creative ability to find the good bits, and orchestrating a lifestyle to not need more are the two keys to spending more time thinking about going to work than leaving.

The only path to career freedom

Career Freedom message at WordPress conference
Upper left yellow note = FREEDOM

 

Face the challenges we don’t want to face. This is the only path to our freedom.

Looking the dragon, or devil, or addiction in the face doesn’t mean we have to do hand to hand combat, but it does mean we need to go to battle with the best offense available.

The best offense is one that stiffens the spines of those around us, including (and especially) ourselves.

What price would we pay for career freedom?

The Hospitality industry requires a commitment to long, unusual hours & flexible work schedules

 

What price would we pay for career freedom? Would we work 80-hour weeks for five solid years so we could get closer to a 40-hour work week?

Oh, and is there even such a thing as career freedom? A business owner told me years ago, “You either own a business, or it owns you”.
