Introduction to My Business Journey Journal Curious Entrepreneur Magic

In order for there to be an introduction to my business journey journal curious entrepreneur magic, I needed a business and more importantly I needed a business idea.  Next, the magic I chose to use for this idea came from a huge mound of dirt. Similar to the mountain of elevation in our Envision Dream design. For instance, this mound of dirt is symbolizing a business idea and how an entrepreneur will use their creative mind to make a profit off selling the dirt. On the other hand, they are taking on all of the risks of losing the dirt and their own money. Basically, balancing the risk of making money and losing money is what an individual must weigh out. This is also true with time. Specifically, time spent and time gained.

Curiosity is what get’s you to research and visualize an opportunity for greatness. However, you will need to understand the 4 types , 7 characteristics and 3 skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur. The magic happens when you decide to take that plunge and go for it. Watch our full video below on Introduction to My Business for more insight.

What is a business idea?

To have a business, I needed to have a business idea. For instance, Envision Dream became the idea I had in my head. Indeed, this was the starting point for my entrepreneurship. To be more specific, a business idea is a starting point for any current or future entrepreneurs. Furthermore, it is essential because it is the beginning of a new life. Above all, this is a lifestyle change because it is the life of your business and the life of your entrepreneurship.

What is an entrepreneur?

Now that I have a business idea, I have decided to start a new lifestyle with entrepreneurship. Specifically, I turned Envision Dream into a Limited Liability Company. Clearly, an entrepreneur is an individual who creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and enjoying most of the rewards. Ultimately, entrepreneurs who prove to be successful in taking on the risks of a startup are rewarded with profits, and continued growth opportunities

  1. small business
  2. scalable startup

  4. social entrepreneurship

7 Characteristics of Successful Entrepreneurs

  1. Self-Motivation is one of the most important traits of entrepreneurs- you are your biggest critic.
  2. Understand What You Offer. You need to know what you offer, and how it fits into the market.
  3. Take Risks: Weigh out the pros and cons for taking the risks
  4. Know How to Network– connect with like minded people
  5. Basic Money Management Skills and Knowledge
  6. Flexibility-when you are flexible, you bend verses brake

3 Important Skills of a Successful Entrepreneur

  1. Adaptability
  2. Persistence
  3. Hard Work

Yes, adaptability, persistence and hard work are the 3 keys to success in a small business. However, they are also three important skills no matter what your endeavor is. First, we need to be able to adapt thru changes. Remember the tide changes every day. Specifically, low and high tides. Second, we need to be diligently persistent so that we are able to be comfortable with hearing the word “no”. Specifically, you will receive 5 “no’s” before you receive a “yes”. This is why persistence is important. Third, nothing is gained without hard work. It should be noted that nothing is gained and nothing is lost unless, you are willing to push yourself with sweat and tears kind of hard work.

Accomplishments in 2020 with My Business Journey

I said to myself, in order to showcase your accomplishments Sheri, you need to start somewhere!!  And since we are ending the year 2020, I had decided to start reflecting on the accomplishments in 2020 with My Business Journey. Specifically, I compared this year verses last year in 2019. I thought, hey, it’s a great way to analyze all that I have completed and not completed. Furthermore, it helps me plan for the objectives I would like to achieve in order to grow.  My goal with reflecting is to take this information and see what I can improve upon for the upcoming year.

What is the meaning of accomplishment?

How do I know what my accomplishments in 2020 are with my business journey if I don’t know first what the word accomplishment means? I decided to look up the word accomplishment from the online dictionary. It says that an accomplishment is something that has been achieved successfully. It also says that it is the successful achievement of a task or planned objectives. Next, it says that an accomplishment is an activity that a person can do well, typically as a result of study or practice.

What are some examples of personal accomplishments?

As I continued to research the meaning of accomplishments, I learned that some examples of personal achievements can include charitable work, entrepreneurial success, establishing good health, financial stability and obtaining a college degree. Again, these are just examples to help you recognized your own personal achievements as we move forward into 2021.

How can you showcase your accomplishments best?

You can best show your accomplishments in 4 ways. In the video below, I actually tried to apply and showcase my accomplishments by mapping it out, pointing to the goals, keeping it simple and showing room for growth. The key word here is apply. Take what you have accomplished in the past year or years and apply the knowledge and lessons you have learned as you move forward into the upcoming year and future.

  1. Map it out.
  2. Point to goals.
  3. Keep it simple.
  4. Show room for growth.

A Dream You Want To Achieve In The Future

A dream you want to achieve in the future begins with the process of writing your own thoughts and ideas down onto a piece of paper. For instance, have you ever heard someone say “keep a journal next to your bed”? Well, I have plenty of times. What’s the reasoning behind it? Well, they say that if you journal about your dreams, you are more likely to turn those thoughts and ideas into a reality. Remember a dream is just a dream until you’ve given commitment to the vision you created in your mind. The execution of that dream becomes a goal to achieve once you put a date to it.

A Dream You Want to Achieve

Why Must We Create A Dream Plan?

For starters, you do not have to do anything. As a result of doing nothing, it means you have achieved nothing. Am I correct? As a matter of fact, most of the time I tend to use my vision to focus on the dreams I’ve envisioned for myself to achieve. By the same token, to continue to move forward with my dream process, I tend to ask myself questions. For example, “How am I going to achieve my dream?”

Evaluation of the current situation

  • Where am I at now?
  • Where do I see myself in anther 1, 3 or 5 years from now?
  • What resources do I have available to me now?
  • What can I do on my own?
  • What do I need assistance with?
  • Who can I learn from?
  • Who can I rely on?
  • How will I take my first step?

Research, Research, Research!!!

Indeed, you have started the process of your dream foundation. Another way to look at your foundation is to think of it as creating building blocks that will formulate your plan which is connected to your goal that links to the dream you want to achieve.

A dream to achieve
What are you thoughts and Ideas?

A Plan is only a plan similar to a dream is only a dream.

In order for the dream to materialize we must put forth “Action“. For instance, sitting in a dark room visualizing our dreams is only going to produce the visualizing. Not only is “Execution” vital to achieving our dreams but “Action” also is a key component to activating our dreams into a reality. For example, a football team doesn’t win by standing on the field waiting for the referee to scream touch down. Likewise, a basketball player doesn’t stand on the court holding the ball in his hands saying “did you see that shot I didn’t take”?

A dream to achieve
Create Your Own Vision with a Vision Board

Always Try. If at first I don’t succeed, try, try again.

For this reason, I believe it is imperative to at least Try. As a consequence to our actions, it will either make or break us. Such as, not taking action will leave us at square one, just visualizing. The choice is yours really. You take the direction that is best for you, as it should be.
