Prepare Your ‘Being’

1. Realize you have a choice.

In everything you do. You are a hero in your own journey.

Be the fucking hero you are. Choose to serve your higher nature.

2. Embrace change and uncertainty.

Or don’t.

Either way it’ll be happening around you and through you. Might as well learn to work with it.

3. Be the ‘Master of Your Domain’.

Stop reacting to opportunities ‘out there’. Instead, act from a place of inner knowledge of who You Are. What’s ‘out there’ is an effect, not a cause. You are the means to create new opportunities. You create the market, the market doesn’t create you.

Combine #1, #2, & #3 to discover your Innerpreneur.

Prepare Your ‘Doing’

1. Find an “engaging” activity.

Do something that challenges you, and is creative. It’ll create a “flow experience” in you. Seriously.

It’ll activate this part of your brain called the nucleus accumbens, which controls how you feel about life.

And it’ll stimulate your septal zone. That’s your “feel good” area – it’ll make you feel happy.

2. Find a “meaningful” activity.

Use what you are best at to serve others, or to participate in a cause bigger than yourself.

Combine #1 & #2 to design your happiness.

Combine ‘Being’ and ‘Doing’ to Create Your Dream Business

In knowing who You Are you will find the freedom to discover the mix of creating and contributing that is Your Innerpreneurial dream.

What Being an Innerpreneur Means to Me (And Only Me)

[tweetmeme] I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it again, I did not make the word Innerpreneur up. I was only drawn to it once upon a time ago (early 2007) when I was starting my business.

I saw the book Karma Queens, Geek Gods and Innerpreneurs in the bookstore and despite the fact that I had little interest in the book’s overall themes, I bought it. I was compelled by the term, Innerpreneur, and intrigued by the people it described.

It spoke to me. I connected with it. I didn’t totally understand what being an Innerpreneur meant but I found truth in it.

Why I Do What I Do

Sometimes, I wonder why I do what I do. Why do I love what I love? Why do...
