Dear Committed Entrepreneur
I love this quote:
’Its better to be boldly decisive and risk being wrong than to agonize at length and be right too late.’ -Author Unknown
Hi! My name is Michele (Scism) Mere. I am a business consultant and I am the founder of Decisive Minds.
As a third-generation entrepreneur my beliefs are strong:
I want to share a personal story with you. A story which will shed some light onto why we are so committed to entrepreneurs and their success.
In June of 2014 my father had an accident and passed away unexpectedly at the age of 72. He was the definition of a serial entrepreneur and I was blessed to spend a lifetime at the coattails of his brilliance (although there were times I didnt think I was blessed). A lot of the time what my dad touched turned to gold. And thats the image people have of the successful entrepreneur someone who makes all the right moves at all the right times.
That simply isnt true.
Even Steve Jobs got fired.
Richard Branson had to buy back his company at one point.
Business is a messy challenging journey and there is no road map.
Over the years I watched my dad pull off what I considered to be miracles in business – times when we were on the edge of losing everything and then he would do what real entrepreneurs do best – dig deep get creative and pull off what seemed to be ’a miracle.’
But they werent miracles they were thought out strategic plans. I worked by his side for most of my life but it was not until his death that I became acutely aware of how we built businesses that could withstand the test of time. He knew. But I didnt. His wisdom was pragmatic.
’You dont own a REAL business unless you can go on vacation and it still makes money.’ I would hear that one every year as we climbed into our RV to travel the country on family vacations.
When he passed away I listened in amazement as person after person walked up to me and said ’Your dad gave me my first job’ or ’Your dad helped me fund my first business’ or ’Your dad taught me how to fish.’
He left a legacy. A REAL legacy. He touched peoples lives gave people opportunity and left behind businesses that didnt skip a beat.
At the same time there was another woman in my hometown that passed away. She owned a day spa that had been in operation for about 25 years. A few days after my dads passing I drove by her spa. There was a ’For Sale’ sign on the building. The business was gone. She had spent 25 years of her life building and nurturing this business but she did not create something that had the foundation to be continued without her.
She didnt build a real business.
I tell you this because I want you to really ask yourself what type of entrepreneur do you want to be? Are you willing to put in the work be decisive and build a business and a life that you love?
We cant give you the desire. We need you to bring that to the table. Everything else we can help you with.
