The Quest Chronicles: Bad Business

The Quest Chronicles: Bad Business Being an entrepreneur, I’ve been asked if I ever refused to work with certain clients.. The answer is yes. I don’t work for a company so I’m not forced to work with whomever comes through the door. Yes, I love to have clients, helping others and building my brand but at what cost?

All money is not good money. I’m not desperate enough to deal with anyone to make a quick dollar. Based on the way they operate; it’s not worth my time, energy nor peace. That’s why people have to be very mindful of who they work with. Some friendships and relationships have ended because of bad business transactions.

I’m a very patient and understanding business woman so that’s why many want to work with me. At the same time, just because I’m nice, I will not allow anyone to take advantage or try to pull a fast one on me. Don’t be so money hungry that you allow the customer who assumes they’re always right to walk all over you. You’re the boss so handle your business. Your brand is counting on you.

Rise Up and Set Your Boundaries: It’s Time to Shine!

on August 16, 2024 Health & Wellness LifeStyle add comment

Hey, amazing people!
? Let’s talk about the reality of standing up for yourself, knowing your worth, and setting those boundaries! ?
We’ve all been there giving our all to people we care about, only to have our efforts overlooked and our hearts bruised. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but today, I’m sharing a story with you, not to dwell on the past, but to celebrate the strength and clarity a strong woman has gained.

The Reality Check

People you love and would do anything for can sometimes be the first to point out your failures. It’s a harsh reality, especially when you’ve stood by them through thick and thin, even when they put you through some REAL STUFF! Yet, every time their call comes in, you answer, ready to help in any way you can. But when things go wrong, they project their anger onto you, blaming you for their own issues. They never stop to look in the mirror and see how they’ve failed you, how they’ve never truly been there for you.

Standing Strong

But guess what? I’m not letting them drag me back into that negative headspace I fought so hard to escape. I remind myself daily that while I may not be a perfect mother, I am a damn good provider! People might try to hit below the belt, but I refuse to stoop to their level. I’ve grown beyond that. That’s my reality.

The Power of Truth

When people know your struggles, they sometimes use that knowledge to hurt you. No matter the real reason you leave a situation, they’ll concoct their own theories because the truth stings. I thought I had a friend after everything we’d been through, but today, I see things differently. I’ve learned my lesson.

Moving Forward

From this day forward, I’m done being the nice guy in situations that don’t deserve my kindness. My heart has always led me to be compassionate, but now, it’s time for a change. Everything from now on is STRAIGHT BUSINESS or NOTHING AT ALL. A person liking me doesn’t pay the bills around here! ✌?

Embracing the Future

This story has taught me the importance of self-respect and boundaries. It’s okay to prioritize yourself and your well-being. It’s okay to demand respect and to walk away from those who don’t value you. Let’s keep moving forward with strength, clarity, and a whole lot of self-love.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. Let’s continue to uplift each other and embrace the power of truth and resilience.
? Stay strong, stay true, and keep shining! ?
