Balance Work and Life

These are the tips and advice that I would share with young and older women who want to be entrepreneurs – I didn’t start my first business until I was 47 years old.

• Firstly, its never too late or too early – as I say, I started my first business when I was 47 but probably should have done so, 20 years earlier.

• Don’t let anyone tell you what you can or can’t achieve. Believe in yourself and your abilities, don’t let others define your worth or potential.

• Build a network, seek out mentors and role models who inspire and support you, and who will share their advice and connections. You don’t have to do it alone, and you can learn from those who have been there before.

• Be adaptable and flexible, be open to learning new skills, exploring new ideas, and embracing new challenges. Sometimes you will need to adjust plans and strategies according to the changing circumstances and demands of your work.

• Be resilient and persistent, don’t give up easily or let failures or setbacks discourage you. Learn from mistakes and feedback, use them to improve as you strive for excellence in your work.

• Last, but not least, have balance and harmony in work and life. Do not neglect your health, well-being, or personal relationships for the sake of work. Find time to relax, recharge, and enjoy hobbies and interests. Appreciate and be grateful for the things and people that make you happy and fulfilled.

Align Success with Joy

My biggest advice is to get very comfortable with your view on success and ensure you know what brings you joy and lights you up. Feeling strongly about what you personally view as success will ensure that you are not swayed by what others define as success. Remember that just meeting a definition of success may not make you happy unless you align your definitions of happiness and success with your own inner feelings. Don’t be afraid to take a leap and some risks on yourself once you have alignment with where you want to place your passions. No one can take that passion, which will fuel you through the low periods.

Prioritize Self-Care

Take care of yourself first. My journey in caring for my dad was a profound journey for me and put my business and my own life at risk. My advice is to take caring for yourself very seriously because without you thriving your business cannot thrive.

Inspire and Motivate Yourself

Every woman during her life would like to pursue her career which inspires her or makes her believe in herself. Never stop doing that. Keep moving forward and keep motivating others to do the same. Learning from failures, celebrating small wins, and keep refining your ideas. Consistency is the key…
