So I set a more realistic goal for myself and wrote for an entire year. Did you know that if you write only one page per day, you can finish an entire book in one year. If you think about the gargantuan process of writing an entire novel or non-fiction book, it can seem overwhelming. But when you break it down in small increments like I did, it is very doable.

I spent time in my practice during the day, and wrote a bit each evening and weekend. Starting the first page was the hardest part, but once I was able to get into the mental zone of writing, the hardest part was stopping the creative flow to go to eat or sleep! It was a very intense time for me. As I was writing for hours, it felt like my hands had taken a life of their own. It was as if information was flowing out of me that I had know idea existed. The entire process was completely cathartic and enlivening.

If you have experienced anything like this than you may relate. You begin to have a love affair with your creative process. Whether your are building a house, painting a portrait, or writing a book, you are part of the birthing process and creating new life.  Your goal is to complete your vision. However, the most meaningful part is the development of your vision. Once it is complete, you feel an amazing sense of satisfaction. But then you have to close the book and say goodbye.

What does it mean to have a business with soul? Does it mean it has a good beat, its spiritually  based, or a sturdy pair of shoes?  No, not really. The soul, I believe, is the essence of who we are. Our soul is like our life signature, our energy imprint. So what does it mean to have a business with soul? It means to create a business that comes from the core of who you are. When your business is the external expression of your voice and your passion, it truly resonates with your soul. This also means that whatever your business represents, highlights, sells, and creates should fit who you are as an individual and your personal mission. When your business has soul by combining passion and meaning, it is more likely to result in success and longevity. When your business comes from your heart and soul, it has more chance to thrive during the highs and the lows that any entrepreneur might face.  Blast Off Coaching  has soul. Homeopathic Wellness has soul. I am passionate about them both. They both have deep meaning to me. When you spend time on efforts that really matter to you, it’s much more probable that you’ll make the commitment that’s necessary to build a lasting entity. This love of your work is the glue that will keep you cherishing your wins and picking yourself up after your losses as you progress on your path toward success. Building a business that has soul is also a great deal more fun than one that is only about the money. Launch a business with soul, stick with it and the business and you cannot help but thrive.
