Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.

Re: Quotes for Conscious-preneurs

SURRENDER TO YOUR PASSION

“How can I describe the kind of person who is on a path to mastery? First, I don't think it should be so dead serious. I think you should understand the joy of it, the fun of it. Being willing to see just how far you can go is the selfsurpassing quality that we human beings are stuck with. Evolution is a whole long story of mastery. It's being real. It's being human. It's being who we are.”

-George Leonard, Author, Mastery

Re: Quotes for Conscious-preneurs

“There is no separation in this life between this and that, me or you, we and them.
So when doing business, you do with it everything.
You feel it in every breath, in every action, this huge, loving swell of Existence.
Or, you cut yourself off and feel smaller, bitter, threatened and greedy with not just money but your ideas,. energy and soul.

Yecch.

So open up to All in every plan, memo, tactic, campaign and interview in your career and smile.

Come here Universe, you’re invited to my next meeting.”

Re: Quotes for Conscious-preneurs

Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make you a far happier and more productive person.
- Dr. David M. Burns

Re: Quotes for Conscious-preneurs

Do 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 Pavlina
