I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired of bad news about the economy. Yes, quite frankly the situation sucks right now, and every day brings updates from fellow yoga entrepreneurs who are getting squeezed, or worse yet, shutting down. I understand the need to be practical, but practical + pessimistic = the kiss of death. So here's a little inspiration from Robert Mondavi, to keep us on track with our vision in the current tough times:
To succeed and have a happy life, you need common sense, a commitment to hard work and the courage to go on your own way. Interest is not enough - you must be passionate about what you do. Find a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life.
I plan to raise a glass to that this evening. Cheers.
Cheers! I'm taking heart that Microsoft and Apple were formed during a recession... and I'm no one if not the love child of Bill and Steve...
ReplyDeleteYES!!!
ReplyDeleteSo valid.
Right now it just seems like we're so damn intent on creating the worst possible situation by predicting how bad it will get and then taking reactive action that causes it to get that bad... and round and round we go.
There are so many wonderful things happening out there in the world...
Now is a time to innovate, and to be creative, and to share, and to inspire.
Am I a yoga entrepreneur? Well, yeah, I guess I am. And right now, I'm writing and sharing a communications strategy for yoga on my website - partly with the intention of other yoga teachers and studios being able to use and adapt the strategy for their own needs.
Now is a time for vision, for boldness, for unity...
Bring it on!
