It’s just clicked over to midnight, happy Wednesday everyone. I’m absolutely buggered at the moment and about to head to bed but I feel like having a quick blog rant.

Lately I’ve been connecting with a lot of entrepreneurs. I’m having a great time, meeting new people that all share the same drives and passions that I do. It feels a bit like a club, a club for people running their own business. It’s membership is very driven, probably the most driven bunch of people I’ve ever met in my life. These are people that are chasing success during all times in life. Their ambitions go beyond just business, it’s a way of life.

Call me arrogant, but I’ve often felt a bit smarter than most of the people around me. I should clarify though, when I say smarter I mean in the sense that the choice I have made to be an entrepreneur is a lot smarter then what most of the people around me have chosen to do. I know plenty of people more intelligent than myself, with more booksmarts, more skills and abilities, but they are using these abilities to be normal, average. Their goals and dreams and aspirations are just like everyone else’s. There’s nothing wrong with that, it’s just not very interesting.

The entrepreneurs I’ve met lately though are interesting. They are running unique enterprises, have strong personalities and live very passionate lives. Most of them have huge goals, a lot more significant than the average person. These are people that make their own hours, work on tasks they enjoy and strive for success in everything they do. They face unique challenges everyday and wake up charged with energy and don’t switch off until they go to bed (if they can get to sleep with all that thinking about business going on!). I expect it’s people like this that will have a big impact on the society of tomorrow.

Right now I’m very excited about where my own businesses are going. My problem is deciding where to invest my time. Every project I have running is showing very positive results so much so that I’m torn about which project to focus on. Sure I must think about income but with so much potential in each activity it’s hard to stay focused. It’s a pleasant situation to be in, albeit it can be frustrating. I experience impatience frustrations almost everyday and I bet every entrepreneur out there can concur with me. We see what we want and we want it now, but it doesn’t work that way. It’s the journey, not the destination.

Tomorrow is another day.
