If you think of these ventures as side or pet projects either within or external to your professional activities, you may find they take on a life of their own, as you meet new people, move into different sectors and start to capitalize on new possibilities.
Some hints to get you started from Swissmiss:
- Invest your life in what you love
- Embrace enthusiasm
- Complaining is not an option (either make it better, or let it go)
- Trust and empower
- Experiences > money
- Surround yourself with like-minded people
- Collaborate
- Ignore haters
- Make time to think and breathe
- If an opportunity scares you, take it
- Be someone’s eccentric aunt
