Don't have one. Few years ago I changed my surname officially and my name unofficially. Most of my old network only know me by my old name. Also the people I need the most are way more active on Facebook. The people who are on LinkedIn are lot of the time even toxic in communication. So I rather stay away from LinkedIn and put more focus on Facebook which I don't really do at this moment.

In my business, I am a lousy secretary
I want to become known as THE traffic visionary
The best thing about my business is that i get to sit on a terras nipping coffee at 11 in the morning.In 2008, I saw a business woman do exactly that. I thought "that is working on your own terms."
The one thing I definitely need to change about my business is working in my business. Unless it is work that sets up a system.
What makes me happy in my business is the autonomy.
What makes me unhappy in my business is being taken for granted. Nobody grants me.
My biggest success as entrepreneur until now is nothing compared to what is to come.
One lesson I learned as an entrepreneur that everyone should know is how to build a scaleble multi stream company
The one thing that stops me from achieving greatness is being undesturbed.

Hi Paul,
Congratulations on achieving the 100K in 2015. May that be the first of many successes of this kind. You say that you are an amazing animator which makes me curious about your answer to # 2 in which it seems like a contradiction. Do you care to enlightning me on this?
Love your reply to # 9. Very wisely said. I will remember this.

Thanks Lucie for your open and honest answers.... Would love to hear from you, what does it mean for you entrepreneurship? What is it that people need to know about it?
154 comments
Well, I guess that's what we are going to learn in the coming 6 months😊.
What I mean is that people need to know that you can have great ideas and a certain expertise, but that doesn't mean that you will be successful as an entrepreneur. You need to know about sales, marketing, automation, pricing etc

Yes, definitely Lucie the coming 6 months are about how to THINK like a Conscious Entrepreneur... but I wonder what IS YOUR definition of what is an entrepreneur?
154 comments
For me an entrepreneur is someone who has many qualities. Entrepreneurship is someone who
- identifies a problem or desire (empathy)
- has a certain expertise that can solve this (expertise)
- knows exactly where to find these people (research)
- offers them the solution (marketing)
- knows the value of this solution (pricing)
- dares to ask that price (self worth)
- keeps developing new solutions (creative)
- has a plan for the next months (short term planning)
- knows where he/she is heading (long term strategy)
- has a backoffice that runs smoothly (administration)
- has a great follow up (automation)
- delegates things to others (NOT DOING EVERYTHING YOURSELF😄)

Thanks for this wonderful honest answers Manny... Curious to know what you mean by "having a business mind"...?

Thank you, Vered. Well, I talked to a friend about my lack of business mind, and he told me this: whatever he sees, he immediately thinks about ways how to make a profit of it. Even if it's just a pen, he knows how to sell it. I just don't think that way.

So if we follow this kind of thinking do you believe that business mind = money? Or is there more to it?
412 comments
Oh there is certainly a lot more to it! For example: making a difference in people's lives in a good way by solving there problems, daring to take and bear calculated risks, seeing opportunities where others don't, and persevering when others would have stopped long time ago. But without money, it isn't really a business - I guess.

Hi Marie-Louise,
Yes I do master the art of self reflection. The challenge now is turn all that "wise" knowledge into action and results.
Thank you for noticing it. All the best with your WOMB journey.
