Microbusiness Entrepreneuring as Personal Development

Your Dreams have ALWAYS Been Within Your Reach

leave a comment

My friend Lu챠Cochofel shared a video by a company called Grasshopper that offers entrepreneurs specialized phone service. Grasshopper is definitely very creative in the way it reaches its audience – by sharing a vision of entrepreneurship, both figurative and literal via its video.

Personally I’d change the last line – “It still is” (whether “everything was within your reach”) to -

IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN WITHIN YOUR REACH.

so what became different?

YOUR THINKING.

How you learned to think about :
who you are,
what you can do,
where you fit in the world, and
why you deserve to succeed.

I was one of those people who used to never want to leave “employee status”.

Why would anyone leave a great salary, paid vacations, company car, bonuses, and the ability to go to places like Hawaii on business?

But now I wouldn’t dream of working for anyone, because entrepreneurship is in my blood – and because THINKING is part of my DNA.

As crazy as it sounds, I’m having a great time creating selective environmental pressure (read: controlled adversity) for myself, because I’m forcing myself to innovate. It’s fun.
