I believe that in most
households growing up, dessert or a lack thereof is how our parents would twist
our arm into eating even the yuckiest piece of brussel sprout. The thought of
yummy ice cream or custard over pudding would pull you through whatever mom may
have put on your dinner plate. As adults we can now cheat and have dessert even
when the dinner plate hasn't been left clean!
‘Do you think you’ll be
getting dessert at this rate?’ was the line that would make you check yourself!
That got me thinking about dessert or other rewards we get as adults. Whether
you’re employed, self employed, making the transition or unemployed, we ought
to be able to hear mom's voice in our ear asking “Do you think you’ll be
getting your dream life at this rate?”
Introspection is one of the
most crucial aspects of being a successful entrepreneur. It’s not always easy
because at times you discover traits or characteristics about yourself that you
may not like. That said, it is from this humble position that we are able to
make the necessary changes in our lives to move us forward.
If the answer to mom's question is No, then you NEED to start implementing changes today! If it’s Yes,
then continue ‘confidently in the direction of your dreams’!!
