I’ve had more coffee dates and deep conversations with ridiculously cool humans in the past few weeks than I have in months.
And yet sometimes I find myself doubting my own abilities as a leader in comparison to these brilliant souls.
I’m seeing the clients I’ve worked with for months (or even years) getting REAL results with the work we’ve done together.
And yet we’re still not 100% dialed in on the “best way” to do things and there are so many ways it’s not quite right.
Our growing team is finding its stride and creating beautiful experiences and outcomes for clients with very little help from me.
And yet we have so many challenging projects on our plate that need to get figured out.
AND ALL OF IT IS SO MUCH FUN.
Some days it can feel so triggering to run a business. So overwhelming. It can feel like there’s no end in sight to the stress and troubles.
But in the same way my 9-year-old son wouldn’t want to play a video game that didn’t have some scary parts or an epic boss battle, it wouldn’t be much fun to do this business-building thing without the hard parts either.
Hold them lightly. They’re all part of the game.
It can all be play, if you choose it to be.
