My Christmas Wish for Women Entrepreneurs

A majority of Christmas shopping is done, the dinner menu is planned, family gathering times are set, and traveling days starting; but for women entrepreneurs the busyness of the holidays also must include finding time to work, answer customer calls, prepare end of year business tasks and setting plans for a new year. Tucked in the silence of the morning, when everyone else is cooking, cleaning, planning or traveling, women entrepreneurs have a choice to work on their business or not.

I find working periodically during this busy holiday week gives me a sense of calm in the mix of the high pitched sounds, sights and emotions it brings. I don’t have to look to commercial store events, shopping extravagances or holiday performances to receive peace and joy because the best gift I receive year long is my commitment to my business and the customers I serve. The gift doesn’t come wrapped in a beautiful package with expensive wrappings; it comes in the simple every day dedication to make the world a better place by what I offer.

My wish for women entrepreneurs this holiday season is quiet work time to make your heart sing and to remind yourself that your decision to become a woman entrepreneur is one of the best gifts you have given yourself and continue to give yourself each year. Be joyful for the intellect to run your business, your energy to keep it innovative and your heart for making it matter.

I hope you find silence tucked in one morning this holiday to soak up the joy and peace of being a dedicated, successful woman entrepreneur serving the entire world with your business gifts. Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year to those and the ones you love.
