Entrepreneurs are so easily caught up in “shiny object syndrome” and move to the next thing before giving the last thing a real chance. How long should you stay horizontal on one strategy, system, or tactic? Does work-life balance exist? How do you get over the shyness of being on camera? On this episode, Amy Porterfield talks all things entrepreneurship, motherhood and getting comfortable on camera.

If you can stay horizontal longer, you are the one who is going to win. You’re going to see bigger profits and bigger impact. -Amy Porterfield

 

3 Things We Learned From This Episode

 

Don’t obsess over work-life balance (12:47 – 13:23)

When you’re a mom and you’re trying to build a big business, you’re not always going to be able to be there. There’s no such thing as work-life balance. You can’t be in two places at once, and you will always miss out on something– and that’s okay.

 

Lean into your insecurities about being on camera and use them in your story (18:46 – 21:15)

Let go of worrying what you look like and sound like because no one cares about that. They are actually thinking of themselves and watching to get something out of it for themselves. Remember: having something valuable to share is way more important than how perfect you look or sound.

 

Tweak more than you pivot (22:42 – 24:27)

You might end up doing 2 or 3 core pivots in your business. Most of the time, what’s required is tweaking to make things better.  If something is working, stay horizontal for at least 18 months. Tweak it, market it, and promote it so that it keeps working better and better.

  1. So excited to find this podcast with one of my favorites – Amy Porterfield! Such great lessons and reminders. I decided to pivot earlier this year after working on a site for about 14 months. I was stuck and couldn’t figure out what to do. I’ve heard Amy talk about pivoting before when something just isn’t working. I spent some time thinking about what I should be doing and began making the changes and now I’m in the flow.

    Thanks for the great content!
