neur. Do you know why using a patchwork of other people’ s tips and tricks should never be a formula for success?
Your audience can tell something’ s amiss. They may not realize it, but their intuition leads them to information that is energetically genuine. Meaning they are recognizing on a subconscious level that you are not fully present in the message you’ re delivering. Anyone can take information and plug it into a regurgitated 5 step formula. Some might even have reasonable success doing that, but it won’ t last. When you show up in business, you absolutely need to show up as yourself.
Consider the success tips and tricks, and if you can modify them to work in your unique methods on entrepreneurship, great! But if it’ s like putting a square peg into a round hole, no matter how much you force it, it won’ t fit right. This is what your audience picks up on and is why you’ re not connecting the way you feel you should. It’ s why we see so many people make it online, light up the sky, and then disappear just as quickly what seems like moments later.
When I lost my uniqueness in business, I pulled back and left the scene momentarily. My time away taught me that staying power in business is different from burning brightly and then dying out. It comes from being open, honest and in full integrity with who you are.
What does that mean, showing up with integrity or authenticity? It means: Engaging as you would with a good friend- swear words, jokes, no frills, and all. Disregarding the opinions of others. Commit to communicating your truth no matter who or what is around. Value yourself and what you offer without allowing outside influence. Working in a way that feels good to you and is beneficial to others. If you work better in jeans and a tshirt, don’ t put on slacks and a blouse to work. If you’ re able to deliver your goods while maintaining your ideal level of comfort, DO IT.
Injecting what makes you unique into your business and maintaining that day in and day out.

I know how tempting it can be to peer around the curtain and see what others are doing to bring in success. Look, but don’ t linger too long. It’ s the staring that becomes an issue, when the desire to emulate begins, one you’ re one step away from copying too much of someone else. During my time away, I developed a practice to ensure I keep in touch with me and what makes my business unique.
Every morning, I find time to get still and drop into my heart space. There, I ask what is in my heart today, what feels pertinent, wants to be shared and made known? I ask to be connected to the core of me. Then, I go on with my day, knowing that my marketing, coaching, or any other activity comes from deep within me, not an outside source.
Now, I show up each day as myself, not me hiding beneath pieces of other people. To last in business, you cannot lose what makes you unique. So, it’ s time to toss the rules and feel into what works best for YOU( everything else will follow).
