This day last year I was hosting my first event…
I was a nervous wreck, and nothing went as I had planned.
But….I learned a very important lesson that day…
SHIT HAPPENS..
Even when you have your whole day planned.
AND IT’S OKAY. It’s how you react to things not going the way planned.
I spent my savings to host this event and sold one ticket. I still have that invoice posted on my cork board because that one ticket meant alot to me. More than the person who bought it knows. I know what my passion is and I have to diligently follow through. I have not had another event simply because I have not had the extra money to do so.
However, I have come up with some ways to have events by saving money and I am definitely working on things for 2013. The rest of 2012 will be spent with me getting all of my goals written down and planned for the next year so I can start off the right way. Being an entrepreneur is all about learning and making mistakes but not continuing to make the same mistakes. I know that I have made alot of mistakes, mostly monetary which is why I am okay with taking my time now. Rushing will get me nowhere, and I have proof!!
Where were you this time last year and what was going on in your life?
