KEY TAKEAWAYS

Knowing the driving force behind your desire to be an entrepreneur is crucial. Take the time to reflect on what truly motivates you and what you want to achieve in your life.

Impostor syndrome is a common obstacle that many entrepreneurs face. Instead of letting it hold you back, turn it into a superpower. Challenge your self-doubt and work on building your confidence.

Use tools like a pie chart to visually represent your priorities and how you want to allocate your time. Be honest with yourself about what truly matters to you and make decisions accordingly.

Life is fluid, and your priorities may change over time. Be open to reassessing and adjusting your plans as needed. Stay connected to your future vision, but also be present in the moment and enjoy the journey.

BEST MOMENTS

"I suddenly realized that I actually had very little control of my time. I was in different country, often three times in a week, all over the place."

"I'm a doer and a person that believes in doing and trying and failing, doing and trying and succeeding, doing and trying and failing."

"Imposter syndrome was a huge thing for me for a long, long time. But I realized that, okay, it might be natural for me to feel imposter syndrome, but I can absolutely work my mindset on this and I can work my way through it."

"I think it's very easy to keep going down that adrenaline-filled, busy, distracted, crazy life that we live in. For me, it always was there as a reminder that, well, all of this time, I want to be at home with my kids and I want to be slower and I want to be present."
