Tenacity Is A Good Thing

In a previous blog post, I wrote about the need for all of us to take chances and risks if we ever want to find amazing opportunities and grow as individuals. This, of course, applies to everything; and, especially in business. This is even more important when you're in business for yourself or have a desire to be in business for yourself.

Well...I have to say...I'm a pretty conservative, cautious girl. It's second nature for me to analyze, weigh things out; and, before I take one step forward, I need to know exactly how something works before I jump into it with both feet. I make myself crazy sometimes. And talk about stubborn! I am the epitome of the Taurean. So...sometimes I have to have a little pep-talk with myself and say, "just go for it!" Most of the time, I do. I'm pretty good at taking my own advice. I have to make sure whatever I decide is a good fit for me, and that it's something I enjoy and something I'm passionate about.

I started blogging these past couple of weeks...learning how to set up my page and navigate my way around it, easily. I am having so much fun learning something, drastically new, for me. I was an English major and my college profs encouraged me to pursue a career in journalism; but, the beauty of blogging is...you don't have to be a professional writer. It's great for me, because my brain doesn't feel like it's on vacation mode anymore. I left corporate America almost 9 years ago to take care of children. I'm, now, using a completely different part of my brain! Yay!

People give up on a lot of their ideas rather than have the tenacity to grasp onto their beliefs or concepts and go the distance. Tell yourself...if it isn't working, there must be a better way. Be persistent until you find what works.

Have a great day!
