There's this narrative out there that to be seen as successful in the online entrepreneurial space, you have to be completely all in and totally financially reliant on your business. Actions like getting a part-time job, putting some expenses on a credit card, and lowering your cost of living are  perceived as failures (or at least we might think they are). In this episode, I'm cutting the BS. We're talking about why these and many other moves not only should not be so taboo, but also how they may actually be smart business decisions at any level of business. I'm sharing my own experiences, conversations happening behind-the-scenes with my peers & clients, and encouragement for you to make the decision that's best for you and your business without fear of judgment.   In this episode, we cover… Why getting a part-time job might actually be a power move How (strategically) putting expenses on a credit card or investing in your environment can help your business grow Taking shortcuts as a way to get where you want to go with less time and energy Why income dips and lowering your cost of living are nothing to be ashamed of The power of community to share about the hard parts of entrepreneurship The need for transparent conversations like this to be happening in our space   Quotes "The investments come first. The ROI literally almost never comes first. And the sooner that you can wrap your head around that, the faster that you'll be able to make smart investments."   "If you can get used to the end goal being somewhat of a question mark, and not have to need so much security of where you're going and exactly how it's going to look like - That's where the magic happens."   "However you pay your bills and make it work - good for f*cking you. Because a lot of people couldn't figure it out and do it."   Links & Resources Mentioned in this Episode Laptop Lifestyle Co Links: Website Instagram Tik Tok YouTube Channel   Other Links Mentioned Laptop Lifestyle Bootcamp

This is because when you are sitting in indecision, there is no way forward - you just stay stuck. In this mini moment I share why you should create personal guidelines to address risks and make decisions quickly. It's not about making the right choice, but instead choosing to take action and move forward decisively to create opportunity.   Our Favorite Quotes "Say yes, say no. But don't be a maybe. No one gets anywhere being a maybe."   "Learn to be decisive and just move forward. The risk and the fear comes form the pressure that you put on yourself to pick right or wrong."   Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, I would greatly appreciate you shaing this episode with your friends or on your Instagram stories (and tag @laptop.lifestyle.co)!

In this mini moment, we are talking about the difference between motion and taking action, and why taking intentional action is the only way to truly move forward. I share the 4 major impacts of taking action: Taking action eliminates worry and fear, improves confidence, creates more impact, and allows you to learn through execution & feedback.     Our Favorite Quotes "Being in motion is like spinning in a circle whereas taking action is when you actually move forward."   Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, I would greatly appreciate you shaing this episode with your friends or on your Instagram stories (and tag @laptop.lifestyle.co)!

While the things you don't know change as you grow in business, you'll never know it all. That doesn't mean you're always going to have to "fake it to you make it," but you will have to act confidently, even when you don't feel confident. That's why establishing a confident mindset is so crucial to success. In this mini moment, we are discussing some mindset reframes for where you can derive confidence from to act more confidently, whether you know exactly what you're doing or what the outcome of your actions will be.   Our Favorite Quotes "We have to figure out, how can I go execute confidently, even when I don't feel confident."   Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, I would greatly appreciate you shaing this episode with your friends or on your Instagram stories (and tag @laptop.lifestyle.co)!

This week I am sharing with you a real life training I did for the ladies of Laptop Lifestyle Bootcamp. To give some context, I had been asked multiple times how I get sh*t done - even when it's hard or I don't want to. In order to give this question the full answer it deserves, I recorded this video training to share some of my tips and suggestions for taking action and just doing it, even when you don't exactly feel like it. There is so much actionable information in this training that I had to share it with you all here on the Made For More Podcast!   In this episode, we cover… How our nervous system impacts our ability to take action Why we often have to eliminate choices and opinions to be productive How expectations impact our emotional responses The importance of priorities in business & life The impact our environment has on our productivity & habits Mindset shifts to help you stay consistent and getting shit done   Quotes "I'm a firm believer that you truly can have and do anything, but you cannot have everything at once."   "You have certain habits and defaults that your body just has trained and gotten used in your current environment now. It's very very difficult to change your habits and way of thinking in the same environment in which you were used to other habits and ways of thinking."   Links & Resources Mentioned in this Episode Laptop Lifestyle Co Links: Website Instagram Tik Tok YouTube Channel   Other Links Mentioned: Offer Oversight Quiz Uplevel Your Offers & Make $100k/year Masterclass Laptop Lifestyle Bootcamp

When we feel lack, we can end up sabotaging our success. Instead, we have to state it how we want it to be able to manifest the abundance that we want. Along the way, we can address the money stories that we have developed through our lives to act without resistance.   Our Favorite Quotes "State it how you want it. Because when you state it how you want it, it's creating a positive and real representation of what you want to be creating instead of what you don't have yet."   Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, I would greatly appreciate you shaing this episode with your friends or on your Instagram stories (and tag @laptop.lifestyle.co)!
