Retractions and Mind Expansions

If you haven't read my February's Editor Letter, here:

Now completely disregard it.

I spend this weekend thinking about mediocrity, progress, excuses, and how all three of those are tied together. In life and in business there are always reasons not to pursue excellence; fear, laziness, ignorance, being comfortable, the list could go on.

Having a baby (or three) may be a good reason for the occasional stained blouse or yogurt-hand print on a blazer, but it can't and shouldn't be an excuse for not having a business as big, great, profitable, and EFFICIENT, as you want.

We're all familiar with the grim statistics regarding the number of failed business ventures. Behind each one of those sad, dead businesses are a series of mistakes and oversights.

My business epiphany this weekend was that I could be one of those ill-fated entrepreneurs if I don't let go of my "I'm a mom-business owner so (insert reason for half-assing it here)".

This week, I am concentrating on delegating, thinking like a Fortune 500 company, and taking care of business the way I should.

Do it better.
