Build a business around your life, and not a life around your business

<p><strong>&ldquo;Simple.&rdquo;</strong>&nbsp;That&rsquo;s my favorite word. Trust me, everything can be simpler. I say it as an introverted overthinker.</p> <p>I first met the &ldquo;philosophy of simple&rdquo; six years ago when I became a minimalist while dealing with the challenges of being a new mom. I realized that to clear my mind, I needed to declutter my home first. As I let go of stuff, I noticed a shift in my values too.</p> <p><strong>Entrepreneurship and business can be a way to support your lifestyle and your energy.</strong></p> <p>There was a time when I couldn&rsquo;t say no to a new client. I had a scarcity mindset that led me to a state where I had more work than time. Why? Because I believed it was what I had to do.</p> <p>Social media is filled with posts like &ldquo;How I made 6-figures in 2 weeks&rdquo; or &ldquo;You can become a 7-figures entrepreneur in 3 steps&rdquo;. But usually, this is not the complete picture according to my experience and based on the feedback from my previous clients.</p> <p>The reality is, that it only led to stress, burnout and unhappiness for me. I couldn&rsquo;t spend peaceful moments with my son, made mistakes in my job and started valuing myself less and less.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/modern-women/build-a-business-around-your-life-and-not-a-life-around-your-business-a895010a64f2">Website</a></p>
