What if my businesses 'never worked out' because...

Read and comment hereI was driving the other day after dropping off the kids with my amazing mother-in-love. Windows down. Arm out- feeling the breeze as I cruised along listening to this (new to me) artist.When this phrase popped into my head:“What if my businesses ‘never worked out’ because I was meant to be doing this?”‘This’ being:* nurturing and unschooling my kids* being there to coach their tee ball team, teach a co-op class and run Lego club* to be- writing and sharing when it feels good, traveling and living my life more than finding ROI in my actionsI put ‘never worked out’ in quotes too because I do this often… I miss the greatness in the present (and past) striving for something bigger in the future. (when I could be having it right now.)I’ve been working on this. Not letting my perfectionism and conditioned way of being, take away from the joy I’m experiencing now.(receipts- my current lock screen)Because in all reality- my past businesses have worked out.Maybe not always in the way I was expecting- but certainly in the tools and knowledge I have today.* And better yet- it lead me to find the creative work that fuels me now.* The projects that I create only for me- not for public consumption. And the articles and courses I love to create and share for others too.This article from Amie McNee then landed in my inbox and felt like YES- THIS is what I’m talking about✨Maybe you relate? Maybe Definitely I’m processing this idea out loud. Comment and let us know here. This is a public episode.
