Entrepreneurs are passionate
people. And we don’t want them to be the other way around.
But what if the passion
suddenly disappears or is waning?
If this is your situation,
let me give you my piece of mind on how to train your dragon (your passion).
I associate passion with
dragon because both of them needed fire to be powerful!
Dragon is a mythical animal
and passion is very much the same (for me).
1. Take a
Breather
If you feel bored with the
business that you are running which you started because of your passion to it,
you can stay away from it in a few days or once-a- week.
The distance away from that
business will give you breathing space and a fresh look on that business that
you are passionate about.
I go to the mountains or
read books just to occupy my mind whenever I feel my passion is going down.
Fighting the battle alone
will wear you out. Sometimes those small failures add up and you find yourself
tired or drowning.
Meet-up is a great online
platform where you can find a group to exchange ideas. I attend some meet-up
and I find myself full of vigor after this productive meet-ups.
You may also attend free
seminar from tradeshows. I have an upcoming event on SMEs that is the
Philippine Business and Entrepreneurs Expo (PBEX) slated this July 25-27, 2014
at Megatrade, SM Megamall. You can find a group of entrepreneurs there that you
maybe interested to join.
Don’t get me wrong but this
is not only about technology. What I am saying is making work like a game.
Everybody loves competition. There is an adrenaline rush that goes along with
it and it feels good.
In our office, I recently
divided the people into to groups and we created a sales competition. Of
course, there is a reward for the winning team.
Even if the game is still
ongoing, I see fire in the eyes of the people. As for me, I love working with
people with fire that makes my own fire burn brightly.
These are simple tips on how
to train your dragon. I believe in no time you can see your dragon soaring to
greater heights.
And to fly our dragon high
up in the sky is the right path for all of us.
