Building A Business That You Love

Building a business, you love is a harmonious blend of passion, perseverance, and strategic thinking. It starts with identifying a genuine passion or interest that fuels your motivation, as this enthusiasm will drive your endeavor. We all deserve to wake up excited about our work, but there might come times when you feel disconnected from your business's essence. During such moments, it's crucial to pause and reflect. Reevaluate your path, realign your efforts with the core of what you love and make your business meaningful to you. 

As a business owner, a creative, and a service provider, you will not always love everything in your business, but these are part of the process. Strive to strike a balance—do more of what sets your heart on fire and less of what dampens your spirits. Your business is a canvas of autonomy, and you are the architect of its structure and values. While this grants freedom, it also demands courage in defining the rules. 

In today's podcast episode, Rhea shares about building a business you love that aligns with your passions and values. Tune in and get valuable insights into the process of building a business that resonates deeply with your aspirations and balancing between pursuing what you love and navigating the inevitable challenges of entrepreneurship.

Standout Quotes:

• “We all deserve to build a business that we love; when you find yourself getting off track and not loving the business that you are building, you have to pause and evaluate, reevaluate and take some time to think about the direction you are going and get back to the track of building something that you love.”- Rhea [00:26]
• “As a business owner, creative entrepreneur or service provider, there will be things that you have to do in business that you won't always love.”- Rhea [02:14]

• “Business is up to us to run it however we want to run it; it's up to us to deliver and service clients how to want to deliver to them; there is a lot of freedom in that, but there is a lot of fear because there are no parameters, you put the parameters on.” - Rhea [07:53]
• “For any creative entrepreneur, energy is everything; we can create the best mood, the best inspiration board, the prettiest scene, the perfect  lighting and the right gear, but if the energy is off, we cannot create as well as we would be with the right energy.” - Rhea [09:46]
