Last night I went out to dinner with a past client and good friend of mine – And the night was full of conversation on everything entrepreneurship and business! My favorite. There’s something powerful that happens when you surround yourself with people who just GET you and are on the same level as you. I know that when I first got into the world of entrepreneurship, the very first thing I did was try to find other people like me. Other people who understood the way I thought and acted. Because my family and friends just did NOT. “Why are you always working?” “Do you ever STOP?” “What do you mean you’re bringing your laptop on vacation?” Non-entrepreneurs simply don’t GET the way an entrepreneur’s brain works. How we live for the hustle How we don’t stop, can’t stop, won’t stop How we give and give and give to our work How we never slow down, ever, for any reason How we are never satisfied and always setting bigger goals How we can never turn our brains off (not that we’d want to!) And so it can be challenging to be around those that AREN’T on the same level as we are, life wise. Because let’s face it – When you’re not an entrepreneur, you don’t live for the hustle, you live for the weekends and and your holidays and vacations. You can’t wait to get home and the work day to be over. But as an entrepreneur, you never STOP creating, engaging, selling, growing! And so it’s always amazing to connect with other entrepreneurs that completely understand you...
