LESSONS LEARNT IN 2019

As an entrepreneur growing my brand has not always been easy. Making decisions on what sort of approach to take has been really difficult. I had to keep fighting that little voice called imposter syndrome. Many of my past businesses failed to scale simply because I neglected having a proper goal to achieve. I fought that little voice in my head every time. Sometimes the voice gets so loud it crippled all my plans. When I started building the ituahwrites brand I knew I had to make a conscious effort not to allow that voice to distract me. So I labor and work smart knowing that the only way to succeed is by being real with myself and honest in my set goals and objectives. The lessons I have learnt so far in 2019 is to be courageous and live life without fear or worry. The only way 2020 can be different is to do things differently. Start by first of all accepting failure as a stepping stone to success. Live life on your own terms and don't allow other people to define who you should be. Here is to a successful 2020 filled with Success, Hope and great work hashtag#ituahwrites
