199. The Subtle Settle
Description
Starting a business often stems from a combination of determination and desperation. People, dissatisfied with their current situation, establish the courage to initiate transformative change. However, as they overcome obstacles and achieve a semblance of stability, a subtle shift occurs. The initial desperation fades, and a sense of complacency can set in.
Kristen has identified a consistent trend, which she refers to as the "subtle settle." This refers to the initial burst of motivation and drive that propels individuals into their entrepreneurial journey, but gradually diminishes over time.
Here are a few highlights:
What begins as a journey fueled by determination and ambition can gradually lose momentum, leaving entrepreneurs feeling stagnant and uninspired. Kristen emphasizes the importance of maintaining clarity of vision and staying connected to the underlying purpose that drives you forward. Ask yourself tough questions: Why is it important to go all the way? What meaning does this journey hold for me? What discomfort am I willing to endure to attain my goals? True growth requires a willingness to embrace discomfort and confront the obstacles that stand in the way of success.
It's time to stop using scarcity as the fuel in our businesses, to stop looking behind and start focusing on the future. Remind yourself why you embarked on this journey in the first place. Don't succumb to the guilt of the subtle settle; instead, reconnect with your vision.
