Hey, welcome to the Allie D show. I'm currently sitting in my warehouse, doing a little catching up on an order. And I was thinking about one of the things that is just so important to develop as an entrepreneur. And I wanted to bring it to the show today just to put this bug in your ear because If you are someone who generally struggles with this, you will likely struggle with your journey as an entrepreneur, as a business owner, and as a store owner, especially someone who's trying to build something really big, different, and unique, which I know if you're in this community, you don't just want to be another online store, you want to build something special, something that stands out, something that like people are like, oh my gosh, I have to shop from this person because I'm so obsessed with their brand. Transcribed So if you're like, okay, what could this possibly be? I know she talks about determination I know she talks about focus and intention and showing up every day with a plan, but here's another Really important piece of this puzzle that you're just gonna go. Okay, so To make it in the entrepreneur land, to make it as especially a standout brand and a standout business, you need to develop patience. What did we hear as kids? Patience is a virtue and it is true as true can be when it comes to building a business. A lot of times we just want to rush to the results. We want to find the fastest way, the next hack, the next viral thing, the next fill in the blank thing that's going to catapult my business to stardom. But what I've learned about crafting an iconic, memorable, standout brand is no matter what People tell you it truly cannot happen overnight. It, you cannot become an overnight success without doing the work behind the scenes that nobody sees. That it may take you weeks, months, to develop certain skills that are actually going to be what creates a massively wealthy, incredible brand for yourself. So if you find that you're someone who's always scrolling and trying to find like, I don't know, the next guru, the next coach, the next mentor that's going to teach you the one thing that's going to make you wake up in the morning overnight and all of a sudden you have all the success. You're going to be scrolling and looking forever. So what I want to invite you to do instead, instead of focusing on what's the here and now, I want you to align yourself with a certain way of building a business that feels good for you. So if you're someone who's like, um, You know, I want to build a business, but not an incredible business, but not have it suck the life out of me, but not have it drain everything that I have, but not have it make me be completely absent from my life. And instead you want to build a business where you actually get to live life while you're doing it. That's how I do business. Because I don't believe that you should shut off everything in your world from your relationships to your family to your mental health. So how to your physical health, I don't believe that you need to go. You that you need to show up and just completely forget about all those other things and only focus on Business 24 7 because you know what's gonna happen You're gonna end up burnt out and you're not gonna reach your goal in the long run So what I believe and if you're in my community, like this is how I teach. This is my belief These are my like core values. I want you to be able to show up Put in the good work every day where I teach you exactly what you need to be focusing on when you're showing up to work. So you're not just wasting extra energy and living in anxiety and fear and chaos. What I want you to do is wake up. Feel freaking great about your life as a whole. Be like, Tang, I am doing the thing. Not only am I working on creating this wildly iconic brand, but I'm also being a great mom. I'm also showing up as a partner for my, my husband. I'm also, um, You know, enjoying time with my friends. I'm also living my life. I'm not just stuck in a shadowy dark office or headquarters where you just are head down 24 7. Because the way that I've been able to build a business is not from that. I've been able to build this great incredible business. We're 18, 000 pieces. You guys, the magnitude of this. Right? Working with a billion dollar company. I would never have got to this point if I would have subscribed to the life of having to just work 24 7 with nothing else going on because I would have burned out a freaking way long time ago when I was small potatoes. I don't want you to burn up as small potatoes. I want you to look at the long game. Look at where you could be five years from now, right? Maybe you're still in your corporate job and you're like, fudge, I just want to get out of this life as fast as I can. We can do that, but we need to also have patience and know that we can build and scale and grow as we go. We don't have to wake up and have 18, 000 pieces that need to go out the door without doing any, which doesn't happen anyways, right? But you got to look in the mirror and go, not only are you going to be a bad ass business owner, but you're going to be one with patience, one that treats your body, your health, your brain with grace, your physical capacity with grace. Because guys, there's only so much we can take before we crack and burn out. So don't let yourself get to this place of where you're just showing up running around in circles. And if you feel like you have been doing that, I'm going to invite you into a different way of running a business, a way that feels fun and exciting and invigorating where you're like, yes, I'm waking up in the morning. I'm going to get this, this and that done. I'm going to have a great healthy lunch. I'm going to go back to business. I'm going to finish the day strong and I'm going to know that I showed up, put in my Best effort did the absolute most to make my business move forward today created less chaos, not more chaos, chaos created more confidence. I didn't lose confidence. I just created an, an amazing experience for myself as a business owner and not like, ah, I'm just over here just running myself into the ground every day, you know, cause I see that happening so much and I just want to pull these quote unquote small business owners out from the rubble and show them the light that there is a better way to run a business, but you have to have patience. You have to know that, okay, if I actually want to build something iconic, I need to give it some time. Like my dad always says, you need to let the world spin sometimes. And just trust that the work that you're doing in the background is creating the thing that you want. And it can feel like, even if you've been doing this for months or years, that you're not there yet, but I'm telling you, you will get there. The only way you don't get there is by giving up. Is by quitting, throwing up the towel, the red, the, the, the white flag, the surrender flag and going, sorry, I'm out guys. But you won't do that. You won't get to that point. If you decide I'm going to learn how to build a business, the way that I can is actually sustainable, right? Because listen, it's going to take you a while. Okay? It just is. Let's just swallow that pill and know that that's part of the process. But can you develop the patience? The stick with it ness to be able to show up every day, even when you're not doing a million dollars in a year, even when you're still doing 2k, 5k per month. Can you actually build the strength and the confidence to get to where you want to go? Guys, this comes down to your patience, my friend. And the more you push patients away, the more you try to rush, the more you cover yourself off. And weighted down garbage, that's never going to let you fly. You got to peel away the garbage, put it in the trash, put away the thoughts that are like I have to do this tomorrow and start going, what if I just showed up and did exactly what I needed to do to set my future self up for success, which you guys know I talk about this, but it is a fleeting thought oftentimes. And if this is that one time where you're like, oh my gosh, okay, I get it. And it's not about showing up and being balls to the wall 24 seven. It's not, you're going to end up so just exhausted that you won't ever get to see your full potential. So I'm like F that. We need to get that out of your head right now and start developing some real chill, some real patience. A vibe check where you're going, okay, am I in spazzy or am I in patience mode? Because when you work and create a business through patience, you create a way stronger fricking business. I'm looking around and I'm going, I'm looking at what we've created. I'm looking at, you know, two properties. I'm looking at this warehouse, all these products, these incredible employees, this upgraded machinery. And I'm looking around and I'm going, Patience is what got me here. You can learn all the viral hacks, all the SEO, all the A I B S that you want. But at the end of the day, if you don't have the patience, you can't get there. Okay. So what are we going to practice today throughout our day? I love these daily podcasts because I feel like I give you little tidbits to be aware of during your day. Guys, like 30, 60, 90 days from now, you're going to go, Holy crap.
