Wednesday Wisdom: For the Love Of…

February 14, 2024

Inspiration, Wisdom for Women Entrepreneurs and Female Business Owners

Happy Valentine’s Day to all my readers, friends, and members who read my words of love and inspiration every Wednesday. It is because of your positive responses to my writings that have kept me writing and sharing the Wednesday Wisdom for over 18 years. Isn’t that the same as why we are female entrepreneurs too? We love what we do.
I came across a wonderful article in Psychology Today entitled, “10 Reasons Why Some People Love What They Do,” written by David DiSalvo. I want you to read the article (find the link below) to inspire you today, but I also wanted to list the headings of the 10 reasons so they spark your interest:
* They seldom feel disconnected from the challenge that first engaged their interest.
* They are remarkedly well-attuned to the “early years.”
* They are “portfolio thinkers.”
* They don’t care what you think.
* They are born succession planners.
* They’ll stay…but they will also leave.
* They won’t be stopped.
* They draw people to them without even trying.
* They live in the now.
* They never, ever limit their vision to serve the interests of petty competition.
Imagine yourself as one of these people and think of each reason listed and remember when they were true to your entrepreneurial journey or life path. I bet almost all of the reasons match something you’ve done, felt, or experienced. They did for me even reminding me how I wouldn’t be stopped at the beginning of Women TIES when no one understood its mission.
What I hope you do today, besides buying valentines, candy, and heart-shaped gifts for those you love, is to look inside and love yourself first – especially if some of the reasons above speak to your heart and career path. We are more than just a beating heart, we are born to do more with our lives than some other people we know.
Let today’s Wednesday Wisdom remind you of this and continue to share your unique passion, personality, and mission with the world.
