For many people the average govt. pension will not be enough to live on when the time comes
In the UK it’s around £8,000 annually, or £671 per month.
If you don’t own your own home, or have savings set aside, that may not be enough to cover housing, utilities, food and generally just living decently.
Now is the time to start learning how to start and grow your own side hustle or main business ‘online’.
Online gives you a fighting chance to transform what you –
Love Are good at and interested in Can teach others Are passionate about
And turn it into an actual business, where your marketplace and customers are unlimited because of the internet.
Building a business online will give you a fighting chance to stand with grace and dignity with the life you really want and deserve -without depending on the govt. or a job to sustain you.
I’m 51 yrs old. Most of you following me are probably in your 40s+? it’s time to start thinking proactively about the future.
The time is now, while you still can.
Let’s turn your passion into a purpose, and your purpose into a business; Then let’s make that business earn while you sleep.
I’m launching an online business coaching group very soon to help creatives, empaths & introverts with exactly this sort of thing.
Finding your purpose is one of the most important steps towards building a meaningful life and a successful business you love ❤️
Introverts, empaths and creative people have lots of gifts they can share with the world. Knowing what you’re really here to do, will provide you with a clearer path to do that.
When you know what your purpose is, you can build a business around,
👉A clear and inspiring vision
👉A sense of having a mission, that’s bigger than you that inspires💥others
👉A deep understanding of the values and motivations of the people (i.e. the customers) you want to serve – who may even desperately need your help, skill, and talent to make their lives better
It’s not just about making a profit, but about making a positive impact on the world and fulfilling a deeper sense of meaning and satisfaction that’s worth infinitely more than just going into business purely to make money.
Take the time to reflect and really think about what you would like to contribute to the world
One of the key benefits of having a clear purpose is it will provide you with a strong sense of direction and focus.
When you know what you want to achieve, you’ll be able to prioritise your efforts, make smarter decisions, and stay motivated especially when the going gets tough!
Real connection❤️
Another important factor in building a purpose-driven business is the ability to connect with your customers on a really deep level.
When you understand what motivates your customers, you’ll be able to create products and services that really meet their needs in a way that’s both effective and meaningful.
This connection can help you build a loyal base of customers who will be more likely to recommend you to others, enabling you to grow your business over time.
Teamwork makes the dream work💪
Having a clear purpose can also help you build a strong and cohesive network of people to help you make your vision and goals come true.
When everyone’s working towards a common goal, you’re more likely to be engaged, which can lead to higher levels of collaboration, innovation, productivity and fun!
Finding your purpose is an essential step towards building a meaningful and successful business because it will:
Provide you with a clear sense of direction,
Help you connect with people/customers on a deeper level,
Enable you to build a strong network of contacts who can help you.
So if you’re thinking about starting something, take the time to really think deeply about what your purpose is first, then get going and start growing that awesome business around it!
My dreams were of me onstage, playing music, there were smiling faces of people, I would play my guitar and sing and I made lots of people happy.
I also dreamt of adventure. Driving a car and a motorcycle with the wind in my hair.
Travelling to new places, meeting new people and making new friends.
Those were the dreams I had.
It took me many, many years of soul searching and personal self-development before I found my way back to living the dreams my boyhood self had.
As children, many of us were taught to suppress our natural belief that we could be whatever we dreamed to be, often by well-meaning people who just wanted the best for us.
But in wishing to protect us from falling and getting hurt, may have also clipped our wings and grounded us.
What were your dreams?
What or Who did you want to become?
The dreams we have, especially when we’re young are the essence of who we really are, and who we’re meant to be.
Don’t ever give up on your dreams.
Stay close to them in any way you can.
Dreams are a language our souls use to communicate our deepest and highest purpose in life.
If you have dreams that keep coming back to nudge you every so often?
Listen to them.
That’s your soul trying to remind you, who you really are.
