Here is one way to explain. Are you doing something because it is your passion or because you see it as a business. To the listener, the former sounds like the bored housewife who starts a bakery class and the latter sounds like Elon Musk starting a new venture. The imagery is automatic.

The housewife has strong business acumen, luck favours the brave; and the businessman had to fail, needs to be networked.

Labels:

– Like airline baggage stickers, stay stuck

You pay a price for every label you acquire. Lost opportunities, creative expression, and the ability to connect.

Drop the labels that no longer serve you. Be smart.

God one day, in a good mood, asked me what do you want – nature or wealth I said both. Since then my house has always been full of money plants. Sometimes it is best to pick one side Knowing when is even more ...
