Take All Your Wins: A Positive Approach To Life

Loyal Canadian SMEs,

I want to take a moment to encourage you on your entrepreneurial journey. As an entrepreneur, you have such a unique opportunity. Your ideas and passion shape our world. If ever in doubt, just look around. Someone brought a thought into form, and your surroundings are a constant reminder of just that. Trust that your desire to be an entrepreneur and innovate is part of a need the world can’t live without. Someone is counting on you to count on yourself- remember that.

In the year to come, there will no doubt be challenges and obstacles that you will need to overcome. It is my hope that the downturns don’t cause you to lose sight of your vision and passion for your business. Keep your why at the top of your mind. We don’t think we talk about the power of focus enough. Find your focus, and when times get tough, double down.

There will also be times of celebration and achievement. I hope you take some time to be present in those moments. Lean into the win. Whether it be an opportunity, a client, or even a compliment, remember that you deserve it. We have a way of talking ourselves out of achievement to trade it in for a chance to cosplay as an imposter. Take ALL your wins in, no matter how small they may seem. Enjoy them. They are yours.

I know our world glorifies hustle culture, but please know it’s an illusion. I don’t know everything, but I know one thing for sure; there isn’t a prize for being the person that’s most burned out, tired, stressed, and anxious. Remember, rest is fuel. Keep your tank full to bring your best foot forward. Your body, mind, and bottom line with thank you.

I have no doubt that 2023 will be a wonderful year full of power and potential. In the words of Paulo Coelho, “Every day brings with it an eternity.” What’s done today will leave a thread into the future. See each day as an opportunity to plant a seed into infinity.

Best of luck,

Nathalie Noisette
