Welcome back to another episode at the Jasmine star show where we talk about life, business,

and that glorious middle, great area that we hate to love and we love to hate.

It is in the middle that I learn the most.

If you have been listening to this podcast for a while, you know that I don't believe

in failure.

I believe that there are lessons I needed to learn.

And so it's under that scope that I've taken a little bit of time to look back on what

happened last year.

Here we are January 2023, if you are listening in real time.

And I wanted to write down a few things that I learned, a couple lessons along the way.

And why I'm sharing these lessons is because wow, to learn a lesson and dwell by myself

means that the only person who's learning from that lesson is me.

But what if I were to be open about what happened in the last year and talk about more than

anything, not exactly the instance or the instances or the outcome or the results.

But really, what was the biggest takeaway?

I'm going to start with what I think is the basic thing that I needed to be reminded of.

It's easy, but it doesn't mean it's simple.

That right there, friends, is what we set out to do.

Consistency, creation, ideation, making an offer, following up with clients, shipping,

receiving emails, inquiries, bids, quotes, contracts.

For all intents and purposes, somebody might look at that and say it's easy to respond to

an email.
