Being able to do what you love is an incredible gift–a gift we enjoy because of our community. Yet as creative entrepreneurs, we can easily become so consumed by schedules and to do lists that we overlook our community.
We can be so focused on the next milestone or goal we want to achieve that we forget to enjoy the journey and neglect our community. And our continued success depends on the health of that community. Only by nurturing our community, encouraging connection and celebrating the successes of others–small and large–do more opportunities appear both for others in our community and for us.
