Monday Motivation: Finding the Color and Beauty in a Business Day
Inspiration and Monday Motivation for Women Entrepreneurs
The yellow worn out inspirational book I have read every day the last decade had this title for today’s reading, “Fill Your World with Color and Beauty.” As I walked outside this morning with my face to the sun and blue sky abounding, I was grateful to be surrounded by color again and not an all white environment of the past few months.
During the Winter season we have to glance beyond six foot snow banks, frozen ponds, steel blue skies into our own entrepreneurial life to find color and beauty. We can see the green of revenue growing in our bank account, feel the warmth of the color red when you shake a loyal vendors hand or see gold in the glowing testimonies of your customers. Business life is colorful or we wouldn’t be living it so passionately.
It’s easy to focus on the beige drudgery of filling in our tax books, viewing the long white lists of cold calls to be made or discovering grey matter in our brains when we need to find creativity. The choice to be made in any moment as women entrepreneurs is whether we focus on the grind or the glory of life. Mid-February can test our souls and yet every day provides us the opportunity to grab the golden handle and open up new economic doors to fill our businesses with light.
Today’s blog post is to help you see today as a brilliant colorful, beautiful day filled with possibility. Why not start your morning off by reaching out to media to gain some PR, calling a favorite customer, pitching yourself as a speaker, scheduling lunch with a favorite person, learning something new online so you charge up your morning with beautiful color. If you are out today, buy a lottery ticket, buy yourself pink tulips and treat yourself to something you’ve wanted. Bring the beauty back into your life if all you’ve been seeing is white and grey.
