How To Not Quit In Business...

You’re Not Lost or Failing, You’re Just in a Different Season. You’re in One of Those 6 Seasons... You're not lost or failing, you're just in a different season. Listen, as an immigrant and someone for whom English is a second language, I've often felt like I'm failing, like I'm behind, or that I should just quit because things aren't working out. But, it's crucial to recognize that often, it's about not identifying the season you're in. It starts with Uninformed Optimism (1), where you're excited about the journey. Then, as you begin working, you realize how much effort success requires, leading to Informed Pessimism (2), doubting your ability to maintain the pace. Eventually, you land in the Valley of Death, the Valley of Despair (3). This is where many give up. However, those who persevere usually do so because they find a guide, join a community, or find a tribe that helps them pivot to a new vision (4) or reconnect with their mission. This leads to Informed Optimism (5). Now, knowing the work required, the path to take, armed with the right tools and community support, you move forward. Then comes the peak - success and fulfillment (6) from achieving your goal and experiencing transformation. But is this the end? No, it's just the start of your next journey. The frequency of cycling through these stages depends on your approach to growth. Some go through it multiple times a year, others once a year. I've personally experienced this cycle numerous times each year. That's how, as an immigrant, I've evolved and transformed repeatedly. Managing six kids, running a business for over 10 years, building a seven-figure enterprise, all while maintaining a 15-year marriage. It's challenging, but it's about understanding these seasons and cycles. So, identify your current season and keep moving. If you need a guide, community, or tribe, seek it out. You can DM me ( for a chat, or look for another supportive group. But whatever you do, keep advancing and look ahead to the coming seasons. You've got this. 👊 Remember to RELEASE IT, BE SEEN, and DON'T HIDE.
