Helping Move Your Small Business Forward
I wanted to share a video today that’s a very interesting look at what motivates us.
Keep in mind as you watch that you’re your own boss, and it’s your job to motivate yourself!
Understanding the way our own minds and emotions work can help us keep ourselves inspired and motivated to work towards our goals.

As kids, anything seems possible. Those around us tell us, “the sky is the limit!” and we believe them.
But then somewhere along the way there’s a shift. The adults start herding us toward “realistic” goals. They see our talents or the areas we struggle with or our physical limitations and tell us which dreams aren’t achievable. Then we accept it. We choose a path towards a particular job or profession. We accept that dreams end as we grow into adults.
Really? Is growing up about accepting reality and giving up on the dreams we held so passionately as children? Or should we strive to ignore those who expect us to accept “realistic” dreams and instead grow into bigger dreams and make a difference in this world?
Note from Michelle: I decided to share a great article today from one of the most action-oriented women I know. When this lady talks about goals and action, it’s from experience, and there’s lots to learn!
Do you have lofty goals? Then you should be aware of the goal busters that surround you.
Goal busters can be anything from a deceptively friendly acquaintance (who really doesn’t want you to succeed) to even an inanimate object. Consider a few examples of persons, places and things that seem to carry negative energy-which is lethal to a person trying to make a change in life!
When I was in 4th grade I got my hair cut in a short bob. By 6th grade my hair cut required the stylist using clippers it was so short on the sides and back. So when I decided to grow out my hair, it wasn’t a one month kind of goal.
A few years later my hair was waist length. It’s not a gigantic goal, but it is more impressive when you know that I worked as an espresso barista at a hair salon during this time period. Every day the talented stylists would give women gorgeous haircuts. And there I was… watching it all… wavering… LOL
