Hello Friends,
Hello hope you all are having an amazing day!
What I want to talk to you about today is Your Community and who you surround yourself with. And I want to ask you "Is your current environment a reflection of where you want to be?"
Real quick I want to introduce myself for those who are new and you are wondering who is this person that I am listening to.
We are getting new members in here every day. I am so blessed to have so many amazing women in this group.
Ok real quick. I am Dawnetta Humphrey I am the CEO and Creator of Blessed Boss Mompreneurs FB Group.
I am a single Mom of 5 beautiful children. My two oldest girls are grown and on their own and have families of their own, so now I am a Grandma.
OK, But back when I BECAME a single Mom of 5 was when my youngest was only 3 months old. So I know what its like to struggle and juggle and stress and be so busy, barely making ends meet.
In the beginning
I quickly realized that it was LONELY...
I was stuck in analysis paralysis trying to figure everything out on my own.
To the point of debilitating confusion. Imposter syndrome started creeping in..
I had to do something different.
I've found that I THRIVE with a support system.
I am NOT a lone wolf type of girl.
Being able to lean on someone once a week to point me in the right direction...
Or hold a bucket for me while I'm in breakdown 🤣🤷♀️
Along with accountability & celebrating my successes (no matter how small)
THAT'S exactly how I feel supported as an entrepreneur.
Let's face it...
There's days when you want to give up.
There's days when you don't want to show up.
There's days where you feel like you don't know what the heck you're doing.
There's days where you feel so stuck and you just want to know how to get more clients, how to get more customers,
how to be seen as a legitimate business owner among all the scams, to be seen as set apart, and legit where when you present your business to people they want to join you. and you don't have to convince them.
On those days - you get to lean on your support system.
Some people operate fantastically on their own.
While others thrive with support (like myself).
There is something extraordinary about being in a community of like minded people. People who are striving growing and learning. People who are inspired the passionate the motivated the grateful the open minded. When you surround yourself with extraordinary people you can't help but grow and achieve more. It gives you confidence and security just knowing you are not all alone. And that the way you are thinking and feeling is totally normal and how to get past all that to step into your greatness.
You've probably heard this saying that "you are the average of the 5 people you surround yourself with the most."
(Often quoted by Jim Rohn.)
We are undoubtedly influenced by who we spend the most time with. If that’s true, then we should consider what type of people we should spend our time with.
John Maxwell offers a perspective in The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth when he says we should spend time with “...people with integrity. People who are positive. People who are ahead of us professionally. People who lift us up instead of knocking us down. People who take the high road, never the low. And above all, people who are growing.”
Our environment can either provide the space for us to continue growing or it can hold us back. It is important to assess where we currently are and where we want to be.
Is your current environment a reflection of where you want to be?
Sometimes, in reflecting on this, we realize that change is needed if we want to get to where we want to be. We often don’t realize how much influence our current environment has on us until we step back and look at things carefully.
"If you need to make changes in yourself and your environment, don’t dwell on your past. You can’t change it. Don’t worry about your future. You can’t control it. Focus on the current moment and what you can do now."
John Maxwell, The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth
So, here are a few questions to ask yourself:
What is my vision for my life?
ok write that down.
What is my vision for my work?
What is my vision for the relationships in my life?
Take some time today to consider who you spend the most time with. How does your answer align with or support your answers to the three questions above?
"Significant growth will not occur in your life until you are continually challenged in your environment."- John Maxwell
I used to think I wasn't cut out to be an entrepreneur because I thought I had to do it on my own.
The Fact is....it takes a village.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with having someone in your corner at all times.
Drop a 🔥 if you felt this in your soul!
So over the years I have went through all kinds of training, coaching and courses and now my passion is to help encourage other busy Moms to be able to work from home and grow their business where they can generate that income and create that time freedom so you can do the things you love.
My passion, my purpose and my mission is to create a thriving community of like minded women who can lock arms and get it done. We can encourage, lift up and guide each other. Because let's face it when you are trying to figure it all out on your own, it sucks.
So if this resonated with you and you would like to be part of a thriving community of like minded people where you can get the support and guidance you need to succeed put "Me" in the comments.
Life is now let's do this!
And if any of this resonated with you and you got value from this and you would like to learn more...
