So I was looking at a potential job opportunity today and I said to my wife, "I don't want to rock the boat. I'm in a good position." Her answer was, "As an entrepreneur, your job IS to rock the boat." She definitely put me in my place. I lost perspective for a minute. I definitely love that about her. I know it sounds weird that I consider myself an entrepreneur but am contradicting myself when I am considering a job opportunity. But the way I look at it is I need stability in my life while I work on side projects.
So back to rocking the boat. Entrepreneurship is all about creating value where there wasn't value before, AKA social hacking. You will never wiggle your way into a situation where you have created value without making some waves or disrupting the force. This topic also ties into asking hard questions about an aspect of everyday life. Why do we do this a certain way? Can it be done another way? Would others enjoy doing it this way? Sometimes people don't know that another way exists. You must educate them.
So I'm off on another tangent. That is my post for today. Don't be afraid to rock the boat. Be confident in who you are, your skills and abilities, and value you bring to the table. Because you are you, nobody else does it like you. Do things your way. Don't conform. Thanks for listening.
