When you reach the point of becoming independent of external events, youโre truly free.
Steve PavlinaWe primarily grow as human beings by discovering new truths about ourselves and our reality.
Steve PavlinaTreat your business relationships like friendships (or potential friendships). Formality puts up walls, and walls don't foster good business relationships. No one is loyal to a wall... except the one in China.
Steve PavlinaDo what you love, but be damned sure it's profitable. If you do work you love, but it doesn't generate income, your business will fail. If you do work you hate, but it generates income, your health will fail... and your business along with it. If you can't do what you love and make it profitable, you've either got a hobby or a headache, not a sustainable business. Don't settle for anything less than passion and profit.
Steve PavlinaBelieving that you must do something perfectly is a recipe for stress, and you'll associate that stress with the task and thus condition yourself to avoid it
Steve PavlinaDonโt die without embracing the daring adventure your life is meant to be. You may go broke. You may experience failure and rejection repeatedly. You may endure multiple dysfunctional relationships. But these are all milestones along the path of a life lived courageously. They are your private victories, carving a deeper space within you to be filled with an abundance of joy, happiness, and fulfillment. So go ahead and feel the fear. Then summon the courage to follow your dreams anyway.
