Other Quotes From the Chat with Carrie Sechel:
- “I would have gone all in on getting the right help from the beginning. Really great business coach and also perhaps a life coach or something of that nature, and hiring a virtual assistant quicker than I did. Going all in and getting the help that you need, marketing, different types of people, technology. Getting help where you need it so you can focus your efforts where you are most able to make an impact in your business”
- “it’s being willing to take complete responsibility for yourself and that can mean working hard and having to make very difficult decisions and putting yourself through difficult days. It also means harmonising that with what you truly want your life to be”
- “it’s a lot harder to say no and make decisions that are aligned with a full life and connections and relationships that you love and treating yourself well and being in good health and being spiritually connected”
- “when I say taking complete responsibility it’s taking complete responsibility for your whole person, for your whole life, for your business and for the person that you are that you bring to the world every day. And sometimes that means working less”
- “if you face challenges you aren’t alone even though you may feel that you are”
