Capitalize on Your Gifts & Define Your Own Success (Entrepreneurship) - What Experts Don't Want You to Know

Do you have a passion to do something outside of your normal 9 to 5, but are afraid to go for it? Have you kept your talents locked away, because you don’t think others will find them important or “worthy”?  If so, you might find refuge in this little food for thought.

Gone are the days of measuring success solely by the position you hold, or the value of your liquid assets, and the “stuff” you’ve accumulated.
I define success as OPTIONS.  The amount of options we create for ourselves, the more successful we are.  This, in part, involves dusting off those hidden talents (most of us have a multitude of skills to draw from).  Or, learning something new!  Capitalize on your gifts, with multiple income streams, and feed your soul by doing what you're passionate about. 
The downward shift in the economy, along with the internet, has leveled the playing field more than ever.  Where else can you take a course, sell products, teach an online class, publish an eBook, get business cards, and advertise -- all with a starting fee of FREE? 

I'm not saying you have to quit your 9 to 5.  Use it, along with the multiple income streams that your talent and passion will generate to add to your OPTIONS "bank".  The many hats you wear with starting, and managing your small businesse(s) will add more gusto to your resume; you will have single handedly given yourself a promotion = more OPTIONS.  

Thanks for reading, and as always, stay Be U tiful!
