One year ago I was just getting started. The summer of 2013 was when I decided to get back into speaking full time. Little did I imagine the changes I would find, and as I began exploring over the next few months I discovered a new world had evolved in my time “away.” There were things called “blogs” and “podcasts” and “social media”! Did I ever have a learning curve ahead of me. By last October 27th, my birthday, I was celebrating in Maui, and contemplating all the exciting things ahead.
So as I celebrated my birthday just this past Monday, I thought it would be appropriate to do an analysis of what went as planned and what didn’t and what was per expectations and what was way over expectations. Well, I guess you get the idea.
Following are the top 5 lessons I learned in this past year. Maybe these will help you too as you navigate this life of constant change.
Lesson #1: Everything will take much longer than you anticipate.
Lesson #2: The learning curve will be steeper than you imagined.
Lesson #3: You can’t do everything at once.
Lesson #4: You will get discouraged.
Lesson #5: You will succeed if you stay consistent with effort over time.
