Take time to understand your energy capacity  What do you find energizing and what do you find draining. Then look at the lifestyle you want, not just sometime in the future, but now.  Then look for ways to align your business model so that it actually supports you as a person and  your lifestyle

DEFINE YOUR UNIQUE POSITION
