Quote for small business | If you want to achieve greatness stop asking for permission. ~ Anonymous

I am an International speaker on innovation and Life Design for Business Owners. I knew I had a great message. I knew my work had a great effect on a business. My clients businesses grew because of it. The results were there. But I was afraid, I kept waiting for someone to come and say, what you speak about and do is worthy. I kept waiting for permission. But the permission never came, it never will.

Believe in what you do. Believe that you are making the world better. Give yourself permission, that is all you need.

Quote for small business | You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with ~ Jim Rohn

Once I shared my dreams with people that did not have a similar size of thinking. They broke my dreams down. They trampled on it. They belittled it to bring it down to their level of thinking. They almost crushed my dream. It took me weeks to recover and get back on track.

Hang out with people who dream as big as you. Hang out with people that challenge you.
