I had a really rough day yesterday...

For the first time in quite sometime I didn't write or create a blog post on a Tuesday.

If you know me, that means something was up....

I was having a 'whining and complaining' session...

blainjones@blainjones and I are stuck on finding a developer for the blockchain side of our business, so I was feeling like a victim....

Wahh wahhh, no one wants to work with us!!!

I then started looking at our totals for the past few weeks in our online business...

Wahh wahhh, it's not where I want the numbers to be!!!!

A big sale that we were hoping for fell through and the client moved onto other options....

Wahh wahhh, it's not fair!

Yeah I was pathetic yesterday lol

So while I'm sitting in my office last night, my wife comes in and reminded me of how lucky I truly am to be an entrepreneur!

She laid it out like this for me....

There is no rush!

She stated that the 'rush' was for us to get moved and situated in our new home and community. Now that we are here, I can focus and take my time re-building things!

Enjoy the process she said!

I'm very grateful for my wife (thedaolson@thedaolson on Hive but she NEVER posts content...I'm working on that lol)

She saw that I was really struggling and reminded me that our greatest challenge this year, was in the rear view mirror. Our goal was to get moved across the country and get settled in our new home. Which we have done...

Now she once again said to me, is the time to enjoy the process. Take my time and do things right, instead of rushing and feeling the stress of having to 're-build' all at once.

Wise words :)

I think sometimes as entrepreneurs we feel this 'need' to be busy and working 24/7...I'm nit saying to not hold ourselves accountable, and work hard...I'm saying that we tend to feel that 'busy' is productive...When sometimes, being productive can be, sitting back and reading a book. Watching a TED talk. Listening to a podcast....Refreshing ourselves for the challenges ahead.

So today, I'm doing something different....

I'm enjoying the process :)

I always try to 'set a schedule' and make sure I create one post a day here on the blockchain....

Well, today I'll do 2 ;)

Not because I have to...But rather because I want to. Yesterday the blockchain did not HAVE to have me here creating, the world kept spinning...Instead, I relaxed last night, spent some time with my family and reflected on how blessed I am to be an entrepreneur.

The journey for me, includes the ability to....Take my time and enjoy this stuff!

I'll find a blockchain developer, when it's the right fit!

Blain and I will hit those totals, once he gets moved and settled (yeah he's moving across the country too lol)

I might have missed that big sale this week, but there will be opportunities to secure more customers as long as I put value out to the market!

Entrepreneurship truly is a blessing.

Sometimes I think we need to remember that and enjoy the process much more than simply...Staying busy!
