Most of my posts are based on a favorite topic that I have then researched using several sources. Today's post was the reverse. I saw the below article from a source that I read daily. Every word is worth repeating straight from the source's mouth!

Founder & CEOBe Bold and Don't Worry
I was out socially with a group of very successful entrepreneurs. I raised the subject of “modeling”, in the context of role-modeling success after others. Specifically I wanted to know who they had modeled themselves after to achieve their goals. To my surprise, they expressed in unison that their success was largely based on NOT modeling themselves after anyone, but rather on making creative, “out of the box” choices based on their own intuition.
Pushing them further, I asked them to remember books of famous entrepreneurs they may have read or historical figures they may have turned to. They went on to explain that it was not that they discounted these stories and figures, but rather that ultimately it was their ability to be bold in the process of launching that ultimately led to their success. Additionally, they agreed that it was only when they stopped incessantly worrying about whether they would be successful or not, that they finally achieved their goals. My tip for today is simple:
“Be bold and Don’t worry.”
“Be bold and Don’t worry.”
