What’s Stopping You? Spoiler: It’s Probably Not What You Think

By Tricia Scott.

 What do you really want for your business? I don't mean kind of, sort of, well I think I would like _________ ← Insert thing you just thought of here.  

I mean, what do you want? 

Go ahead, think it over; I'll wait. 

Now ask yourself, what's stopping you? 

All too often, we're waiting for something—a break in the market, someone to notice our work or validate an idea, on and on, but the truth is...

Are you ready? 

No one else has the power to make our dreams happen. You don't need to wait for permission to start. There is no grand panel of X-Factor (is that still a thing?) style judges to put you through to the next round or decide if you are good enough. Trust me, no one permitted me to launch The Female CEO; I just showed up and got started. 

The audacity, eh?  

So here's my message today. Have the audacity. 

Show up for yourself, take the mic and run with it because when you do, you take your power back into your own hands, and there's no feeling like it. 

Show up today, and tomorrow, and the days after that. Watch the world change around you because you change. 

Turns out you're exactly what the world has been waiting for.

Now go do it. 

I believe in you (always).
