Newsflash: Adults don’t birth adults, they birth babies. When birthing a new business, idea or position, treat it like your baby. Nobody frets over a baby pooping its diaper or sleeping all the time. Nobody gets frustrated when a toddler falls down when taking their first steps. Nobody gets dismayed when their young child fumbles over his or her words when learning to read. So, why should we treat our newborn endeavor any differently? Too many of us become discouraged, or even defeated, when our project doesn’t morph into adulthood in the first few years. You can’t microwave everything. Just stay the course. It takes time for ideas to develop, gain traction and find their way. Patience plus persistence, my friends, is your number one strategy to deploy. Enjoy the journey, day by day … by day by day. Here’s to making more babies! #HooWah Brent - xoxo
